I mailed my passport in January 27th from OH to PA. Shortly after I mailed the application my wallet was stolen with the tracking number. (I will forever take a photo of that number from now on). The passport agency has not received my application (It has been 6 weeks). I filled out a missing mail search with USPS but they closed the case with no resolution. I called USPS again and opened another case. I'm waiting to hear back.



I contacted my state representative and they told me to contact my Senator. My Senator called me back today and just said my only option was the keep waiting unless I have a tracking number.

My question is should I keep waiting or mail in a stolen/lost passport application? My fear is after I mail it they original will show up and then the agency is able to cash both my checks.

I was hoping to travel in July and really thought mailing in January would leave me plenty of time. I am now getting nervous that I am running out of time.
