Who has recently applied for US Passport?

[PlutoX 0]

Hi everyone. I just stumbled on this site, and found a lot of useful information. I just recently applied for my US Passport on 2/15/2011. I was wondering has anyone here applied for their passport lately? The reason I ask this me, and my friend recently applied together, and she is already getting a tracking number to receive her passport in the mail? My status still shows the same since last week; We both applied for routine service.

If you applied for both a U.S. Passport Book and a U.S. Passport Card on the same application, the newly issued documents, as well as your returned citizenship evidence, may be mailed to you in separate packages at different times. Therefore, it is possible to receive 3 separate mailings; one with your returned citizenship evidence, one with your newly issued passport book, and one with your newly issued passport card. It is currently being processed.

Your passport application locator number is xxxxxxxxx.

When you applied, you requested Routine Service. See our website for more information on current Processing Times.

We are processing Routine Applications in approximately 4 to 6 weeks from the time of application.

If you are traveling within 2 weeks and have not received your passport and have further questions about the status of your application, you may e-mail or contact the National Passport Information Center with the above locator number. It will enable them to update you on the status of your application.

I applied Feb 11, I believe. I'm not 100% certain, but it's not far from that date. Received my passport today. No passport card yet, or naturalization certificate. I did not get a tracking number, just found the packet in the mailbox when I got home.

Since you did not apply for expedited service, expect your passport to be delivered within 14 to 21 days. The application locator number is completely worthless.

How about if I call NPIC wouldn't they have a update? When I called they told me he status was still the same.

I applied (expedited) 2/22 & received it on 3/3. Took 9 days. Status still shows it is processing.

I checked the mail-box and nothing yet. The website has not updated so I guess I am one of those statistics that will get my passport late.

I would call your local congress on this. I think they have lost your paper work in the system.

I too applied on 2/15 with regular processing, and haven't received the passport either. The status is still "in processing".

zhwgc, hopefully we will get it by this coming week. Did you apply for the card, and passport book?

Out of curiosity - why the panic? Sand indicated that he/she applied in late Jan and got the passport Feb 25th - roughly 1 month (28 days) after sending. If you applied Feb 15th - you're only 2.5 weeks in ...just saying.
