4/9: Applied for a large passport book via routine service and standard shipping. The application is fully online, and you don't need to mail any materials in. (You submit online, pay online, and there's no need to mail in your old passport book.)
4/9: "Received" email notification
5/18: "In Process" email notification. Note: When you use online passport renewal, the typical Passport Application Status website doesn't work, so I did not receive an application locator number and am not sure which office processed my application.
5/19: "Shipped" email notification
5/19: Shipped from Tucson, AZ via Priority Mail
5/21: Received new large passport book. It's an ePassport, not a NextGen passport.
I recently created an account, however once I completed the renewal form, it prompted me to print and mail along with my passport and photo. How were you able to submit everything fully online? Wondering if I'm missing something. Thank you!
