Passport Appointment

PASSPORT-APPOINTMENTS

Urgent appointments

There are 4 types of passport expediency.

Routine (more than 6 weeks)
Expedited (3-6 weeks)
Urgent (less than 3 weeks)
Life-or-death (less than 2 weeks)

Routine or Expedited can be chosen during a regular passport appointment. Urgent and Life-or-death have special requirements and must be done at a passport agency.

Expedited

Expedited service processing times can be as little as 2 weeks. The total time also depends on how long until your appointment and the mail delivery time (both ways). We can assist getting an appointment asap and you can select priority mail express to shorten the total time. Expect this total time to be at least to 3 weeks.

If we already scheduled your appointment and you need it sooner

We will always schedule the soonest date available based on your preferences. If you need an appointment sooner, we will have to change some preferences and watch for a cancellation. It is very unlikely to get a cancellation for a specific location, date, time, and number of applicants. We will watch for anything to become available. If you have multiple applicants they may each be separate appointments at different locations and dates. This is only subject to availability and is not guaranteed.

Urgent

If you need your passport in-hand within 3 weeks from today then you will most likely need an urgent appointment. We only assist with expedited and routine services. If you have already requested an appointment through us and you are able to get an urgent appointment, please request a refund.
