For those who expedited the process, did you have to provide any justification (ex. proof of upcoming travel plans) to qualify for expedited service?

I didn't expedite, but I doubt you need to provide evidence. The additional $$ are all they want/need ;)

haha, that's probably true. Thanks

Didn't provide anything extra. Just went to the passport agency because I thought they would not keep my Naturalization Certificate, which they did because it's been over a month that I became citizen, so since I was already there with my husband, we went ahead and paid $225 for passport book and card. :wacko: But, well, good news I got them in 2 business days without paying shipping. :dance:

Congrats! It looks as though you do get what you pay for with the additional premium to expedite!

I think it is faster if you got to one of the passport agency. I am in NC and the closest passport agency is Atlanta, GA so even with expedite service, I am thinking it'll take around 2 weeks.
