Current US passport renewal time
Current US passport renewal time
Anyone gotten their passport renewed recently? Going to Zim in October. Mine expires April '23 but thought I might as well go ahead and do it now.
There are two types of people in the world: those that get things done and those who make excuses. There are no others.
We have renewed 2 passports recently. Both we paid the expedited fees. Received them both under 3 weeks .
Used G3 but did not request or pay for expedited processing. Passport application was submitted on April 19 and received my new passport on May 7.

I renewed mine 2 weeks ago, paid for expedited service, don't need it but consider it to be more of an insurance plan for getting it back, and was told by the post office lady they were running 3-5 weeks presently. I'll post when it shows up, just checked online and it shows they received my renewal on the 13th.
for every hour in front of the computer you should have 3 hours outside
Fascinating!
Here you can apply on line, and get yours within 24 hours.
Or walk into a passport office, and get it while you wait!

bwanamrmFrank,
Reapplied in early April and had my new one in 5 weeks! Quick turnaround now that the COVID surge is over...
On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Brandon.GleasonUnder 4 weeks for standard renewal. I believe I sent it in mid March?

I think the population of UAE as a whole is 10 million. A lot easier to manage and provide services.

jdollarAnd only about 1,000,000 are actual Emirati citizens. The rest are worker bees or expatriates.

That is not the point.
If one requires a work force of a 1000-1 to provide good service, and 100,000-1 to provide mediocre service, the options are clear.
Just renewed mine, it was done in 3 weeks.

Wish that were the case in the Biden government. Washibton would be empty and full of homeless bums. Wait…it already is…

lavacaI've got to renew this year, so thanks for the update. I've always used G-3 for Visas and will do so for passport renewal, but obviously no need to pay for expedited. I've got a nearly a year.
