Passport renewal delays

[littledan]

Can confirm based on my experience. Had my daughters passport in hand in late november 5 weeks after in person submittal.

Turnaround time was 10 days for my sons passport. Was not a rush order as we don't travel until end of March. I was very surprised at how fast they got it down. Last year this time, my daughters took 5 weeks.

Has anyone gone to Harry Hays recently? Are they allowing walk ins? Need to renew my kid’s passport

I did last month. Was in and out in 2 hours. Got the passport a few weeks later. THey are moving people fairly efficiently through there.

Wife went to the location across from McMahon stadium yesterday to drop off renewal form, in and out in about 45 mins, told to expect passport in the mail first week of April. $160 for 10 year passport.

We applied for a passport yesterday. Total time was about 5 hours of waiting but did not get there until mid morning. Make sure you have EVERYTHING, photos, supporting docs, application form filled out correctly. Follow all instructions on website closely. About halfway through the line/wait they had someone pre-checking the info you have and turning people away that did not have all 't' crossed and lower case 'j' dotted. (makes more sense to have someone checking on arrival, but that is not their process) Someone was missing a signature from a guarantor who was in another room onsite. Applicant was turned away despite fact that the guarantor could have been over in 2 minutes to sign... now back of the line again.

Would have made more sense to be there first thing but. Also travel date was in next 25 business days so this may have impacted experienced wait times and we were told passport will arrive by March 15ish.

Thanks dudes. 5 hours is pretty nuts, good thing I didn’t go today like I was hoping. I’ll try the McMahon stadium one tomorrow instead of harry hays.
