Thank you for the update. Based on your timeline, I should hear back in 2-4 days.

I'll be about two days behind you.
Since I don't have any June travel coming up, I'm more than happy to let you get your passport first. :)

I hope you will get your soon. I don't have any travel plan on the horizon, but never know something might pop up. Also, it's time for me to renew my passport anyway.

Received old passport back today via USPS first class mail. Return address, Sterling, VA. Postage zip 03801, Portsmouth, NH.

I'm curious of any opinions of my 5 year old daughter's case. She previously had a passport but we did not have any issues the first time. At the time I submitted her application we did not have travel planned, but while waiting I booked a tripped, not thinking that this would be held up for so long, ugh! Hindsight! Flight date is July 24th, but I'm starting to worry.

Routine service:
Feb 28 Passport received, locator number 19.
March 1 Check cashed. Application: In process.
May 6 Received letter stating that our photo was not acceptable (had it taken at Walmart) but ALSO that they had record of her previous passport (which was NOT included in her application even though we brought it with us at the time of our application at USPS). So instead of signing a paper saying that it was lost/stolen we went back to USPS with a new photo from Walmart and her old passport. Just by chance we got the same person that had originally submitted everything and he seemed very surprised that they were asking for her old passport since we had sent her birth certificate.
May 9th Tracking shows that they received the old passport and new photo at Sterling, VA
May 20th I called the 877 number and requested to have the application expedited, I actually got through immediately which surprised me a lot. They sent me an email/form to fill out, which included my credit card number to charge the additional $60 to.

So far nothing has happened since then. Credit card has not been charged the additional fee. No other correspondences. What should I be expecting? If they request more info do they completely start the processing time back over?

Update:
For one of the two applications:
May 30th, email: Application Status: In Process. The U.S. Department of State has received your application for your passport book on 03/24/2023. We're now reviewing etc.
May 31st, email: Application Status: Shipped. The U.S. Department of State has shipped your passport book on 05/31/2023. USPS.com: "Label Created, not yet in system".

4/21: Mailed passport renewal by Priority Mail, paid for expedited service.
4/24: Delivered to Passport Processing Center P.O. Box and picked up.
4/26: Check cashed.
4/26: Online status page shows “In Process.”
6/2: Online status page still shows “In Process.”
6/3: USPS Informed Delivery shows a package from “PASSPORT SERVICES/DOS TUCSON” scheduled for delivery on 6/3. Tracking information shows that the package was sent via one-day priority express on 6/2.
6/3: Online status page shows “Approved.”

Locator number: 69 (Portsmouth, NH).

No status update email received even though I had signed up for it.

Same here. I never got any email from them.

Wow! You received it before mine. I just checked my status, and it still shows "In Process". Min has been "In process" since 4/24 and it belongs to the same locator "69".
I hope it changes on Mon/ Tue, or else I will be in a pickle.

By any chance, did you check your spam folder?

Not getting the email updates is in the range of normal even when the passport applications are moving forward the same as usual for most or even already delivered.

For many years now, the chances of my getting status update emails or accurate status update emails about my own submissions of passport applications has been like a weighted coin toss — weighted against my getting them in email inboxes and junk/spam folders. The exception to this for me is when the only status update email I’m looking to be emailed about is one from a US embassy/consulate, emails that are embassy/consulate-specific.

I check the spam folder everyday, haven't received any email from them. Already got my passport in hand.

That’s been within the range of normal for so long that it’s not surprising that you already have the passport in hand and may have gotten it without any email from them.

Nothing in the spam folder.

I think the only time when I got an email regarding to any update when my wife renewed her passport online. They emailed every time when there was a change in the status.
