3/24/2020: Check cashed
3/26/2020: Website shows application as processing (currently processing in 6-8 weeks)
3/28/2020: Status changed to "approved" and e-mail sent stating passport shipped with tracking #. Expected delivery on or around 4/4/2020
3/31/2020: Received passport

So a total of 13 days from dropping this off at the PO until receipt of the new passport.
Seems like I may have gotten one of the last renewals before everything shut down. That would explain the unusually fast turn-around time. Has anyone who sent in a passport before the processing shutdown, but didn't yet receive a passport, gotten any kind of a status update?
