Ranked #41,665 in Travel & Places, #1,044,976 overall
It might be difficult to believe, but sometimes you can get your passport in one day and other times it might take up to ten weeks. If you want an expedited passport there are ways to obtain one. Sometimes, you can be issued a passport in as few as four weeks although this is considered a rush. You might consider the following two ways to expedite your passport if time is of the essence.
Speed Up The Process!
For an additional $60 for expedited american passport via the government this will allow for overnight delivery. In doing this you may be able to receive your passport in four weeks from the initial date you applied. On the other hand, if you visit a passport office, after making an appointment, you might possibly receive the document in as little as three weeks.
Let us look at the two ways you might try in order to expedite your passport. If you do not plan to leave the country within two weeks then the first method is for you. However, if you plan to leave the U. S. within two weeks then you need to look at the second method.
The first method requires you to prepare your passport application materials. Make sure you have the necessary knowledge for the process of not having a U. S birth certificate. Next, add your $60 rush fee to the amount of the passport fee. Determine the address on the passport application so that you may contact the office for possible payment acceptance.
Now, put all of your materials inside a suitable manila envelope. Address this to the correct office and then write 'Expedited' on the outside. If you want, you can pay for overnight service for each way. Take the manila envelope to the post office, or you may choose to use FedEx or UPS. Whichever way you choose to send your envelope, be sure to ask for the two-way service.
The second method is for people traveling within the next two weeks. Even by following the directions, you should understand that this does not guarantee you will receive your U. S. Passport in less than two weeks. The first thing you must do is have proof (e-ticket, paid itinerary) that you are leaving the country within two weeks. Please note that the Department of State notes on their website that you cannot apply for a passport at your post office or through the mail if you are leaving the country within two weeks. It is required that you apply in person at an office.
As in the first method, compile your application materials, get the cost and add $60, then locate the agency nearest to where you live. Make an appointment over the phone and make certain to get the correct address along with the date, time, and record your confirmation number.
You should arrive early for your passport appointment. You must be certain your paperwork is 100% in order and complete. Additionally, be certain you have proof of leaving the country. This is essential and if you do not follow these steps you may encounter some major problems. Once completed, hopefully your expedited pasport will arrive on time!
