April 28th - "in process" email received.
May 13th - "application approved" email received. The online status must also changed recently (it was still showing in process earlier this morning). "You should receive your passport book on or around 05/16/2021." "Shipped" email received about two hours later.
Edit:
May 15th - passport received from Tucson in Priority Express mailing. It's the old model passport and the date of issue is May 12th.
May 22nd - received birth certificate back. The letter was postmarked on May 17th.

New data points from me! So happy to be part of this little ballet again. This time there is no rush, hence:
March 17th - deposited two normal US passport applications at USPS for children. Renewals. One of them has a request for an endorsement - let's see if that delays it.
March 24th - first cheque cashed.
March 27th - second cheque cashed (electronically).
Both are showing as "in process" since March 24th, apparently being dealt with in Buffalo. No emails received despite requesting them.
