Has anyone gotten a passport recently?

I will delete once I find an answer.

How long did it take you?

I am the worst fuking slacker in the world! I went to Canada Feb 2006 and my passport expired in Aug 2006.

I still haven't renewed it!

Now I want to go to Canada in January.. Jan 22 if I recall. soooo......... I should expedite right?

Yes you can expidite (for a fee), I think it still takes about 2 weeks though. So do it now.

It takes weeks. I'd expedite.

I think I am going to... not expedite cuz its far too much money and i am super-mega-ultra broke atm.

I will pay 15$ for then to overnight it when they are done.

The website site says they are taking 4-6 weeks to complete. Pray that I get it on time.

I imagine that you guys have a somewhat similar process as we do... I got mine in 3-4 days but had to pay an extra $150 or something like that.

Contact the passport issuing office.

this is the same here. I thought I'd lost mine 3 days before canada but it'd fallen into the middle of a book. I was ready to do a marathon train journey to my 'local' office to get a new one when I found it at 11pm the night before. A week is the minimum guaranteed time here.

Atleast my passport should be renewed and I can come back to party proper another day.

This is just a pre celebration warm up

they joys of having three of them

one expires, use the other!

Posted by iclone on Dec-11-2009 20:23:

to speed the overall process: make an appointment (if an option) and go to the local passport agency to submit your app/renewal in person. bring a copy of your flight itinerary, hotel reservation, or something else that will prove the date by which you need your passport. if you *really* want to expedite it, there is a 24hr option...not for the budget-minded.

i'll drag you to get the passport photos, myself, if you don't have them before NYE!

I just took em. I look nasty as fuk but o-well.

Canada here I come. (hopefully)

Not gonna expedite. It's 7 weeks away and I am going to have them overnight it to me.

US website says 4-6 weeks ... sooo -cross my fingers-

a few friends of mine got passports at the beginning of the summer for a trip to europe. they didn't expedite, but the passports arrived in 3 weeks anyway.

You're screwed

Posted by _Nut_ on Dec-12-2009 03:41:

I renewed mine last year - and the website showed the same 4 - 6 week lag. I didn't expedite it (no need) and it was returned in about 2 weeks.

Posted by Lews on Dec-12-2009 03:55:

I had to get mine in 2 weeks this summer and I got it expedited for like $60 and got it in like 12 days or something.

...or you can drive to Philly and get one at the pasport office on 2nd and Chestnut the same day. Just schedule an appointment.
