Sep 3: mailed application for second passport
Sep 11: received letter saying they needed my original passport to process a second passport by mail
Oct 7: mailed original passport with tracking, would have mailed it sooner but needed it for a trip
Oct 16: passport arrived in Sterling, VA, interesting note that the tracking fell off on Oct 9, I called the NPC and they mentioned it was held in a security inspection
Oct 17: approved, shipped that evening from Arkansas
Oct 19: USPS shipping said it arrived, but it didn't
Oct 21: second passport actually arrived

Very surprised on the quick turnaround. Basically a week to tell me I needed to submit my original passport. Then once it cleared the security inspection, a single day for approval.

I think I can have different mailing address on the passport renewal form DS-82 page 1 from permanent address page 2, right?

Have you used first class mail? And how you know when we can go check online?

If you are applying for a new passport, I think the processing locations use Priority Mail. Either way, my renewal and my daughters new application both pulled up online about a week later.

Standard US passport application submitted at US Embassy in Europe on November 26th resulted in passport being issued on November 27th and “mailed” out to the Embassy. Expedite fees not relevant. The US passport which was submitted as part of the standard US passport application remains with the Embassy and remains valid as it will only be cancelled upon the Embassy’s receipt of the newly-issued passport.

My bet is that newly-issued passport is ready for pick-up by applicant at some point next week. I wouldn’t have been surprised if it would have been available for pick-up on Friday of this week, but the Thanksgiving closure does slow things down a bit.

And indeed it was at the embassy as of today; and it will now be picked up tomorrow morning. Fast service, with no expedite fee relevant for such circumstances.

11/13/2019 - Received (USPS signature)
11/14/2019 - $140 check deposited electronically
12/11/2019 - Application Status: In Process - "The U.S. Department of State has received your application for your passport book and card on 11/13/2019. We're now reviewing your application and supporting documents. You requested routine service when you applied, which we are currently processing in 6-8 weeks."

Now I'm nervous, I'm flying 12/31...

I'm pretty sure that most domestic applications processed around the 14th-18th of November will be issued and sent out by or before December 20th.

Apologies if this is the wrong thread, but it's the most active one re: US passports.

Both Mrs. Lee and I need to renew our passports and will be doing so via mail. I will need expedited service on mine but she will not.

Can we still mail them both in together? IIRC the last time we renewed, I put each application/photo/expiring book/payment into a manila envelope and then put the two envelopes into a priority mail flat rate to save on postage.

But back then we were both just doing standard processing so everything was going to the same place. For this time, could I pop them both in a single mailing to the Expedited address, and then trust that they'll separate off Mrs. Lee's standard application once it gets there?

Mailed Priority Mail Friday Nov. 1. Delivered for non-expedited service on Tuesday Nov. 12 (WTH?) Check for $110 cashed Nov 13.
Still processing according to website on 12-12-2019.

I thought it would be back by now.
