Checked passport status on website daily. They posted the tracking number on 2/26/26 when it stated "Shipped". It did further state that "Save or write down this tracking number now. Future status updates will not display your tracking number". The next day, the updated website was "Approved" and the tracking number was no longer listed.
The email notifications sent were when the application was received and when it was approved. No email notification for shipped.
Still quite impressed at how quick this was. I did not pay for expedited processing ($60).
