Additional information.

The passport issue date is 03 AUG 2023.

The USPS received the pre-shipment information on August 4, at approximately 3:00 pm (I did not recognize the tracking number when I received the text message, so I did not check the details at the time). The USPS was in possession of the Priority Express Mail envelope two hours later. It arrived at my local post office at about 10:30 this morning and delivered just before 3:00 pm. It was not delivered by our regular carrier and arrived earlier than our regular mail (which has yet to be delivered today).
