Anyone renew their passport recently?

I got a new one fairly recently, The post office I went to was off of BW 8 and I think westheimer. Had it rush delivered, so it got in within 3weeks.

 

Took 3 months the last time I got mine renewed, but that was probably 3 years ago

 

There must be some mistake or they have lost it in the system. It shouldn't take that long.

 

just the peeps who live off gov. jobs.....

Although, I got my visa for Saudi Arabia in about a week.

 

I went to the downtown office location and received mine in 4 weeks. Went to another near Intercontinental for my sons...it's open late and it took 6 weeks.

 

I applied for mine Oct 23rd.

I got it back last week.

 

I didn't renew, I got a new one. Applied about 3 weeks ago, got it yesterday. Standard service, no rush.

 

I'd start looking into it. My wifes got lost, they had the wrong zip code so it got sent back. she had to start the process over after finding this out.

 

I guess I better renew mine soon. I might be taking a trip next year.

 

Renewed my wife's and got two new one's for my kids about three months ago. Took about 3 weeks for the wife to get hers, and about 4-5 weeks for the kids.

Aside: I needed passports for my 23 month old daughter and 3 month old son. ****ing ridiculous. Total cost for all three passports was almost 300 bucks.

 

always choose the expedited option. Took me about 2-3 weeks.

 

Ja. I'd say something is weird.

 

Argh, mine expires August next year. I'd better get going on the renewal now, huh?

 

It's best to shell out the extra bit of money and get the rush service. You'll get it back usually within two weeks or less. Applying for visa's is a whole other story.

 

Are you a terrorist? lol :grin:

 

I remember it took me a month to get that once... not fun.

 

We went through this a couple of years ago. Unsurprisingly, they're still cocking everything up. My wife (works for the Texas Lege) called our US Congressman and asked if he could expedite things. We got them at the very last possible moment, the day we went to the airport. It was a nightmare, but we got them. You might try contacting your local congressperson's office and see if it helps. Be polite, but tell them you're desperate (and praise the guy/gal, even if you don't mean it, that you are a supporter. my wife knew our guy and his wife, and we are fans of both... different situation).

 

in houston you can get one made that day at their office if you really need to
