You can expedite the passport, you will get it back in two weeks. USPS $240 each if you do passport card as well. Am just saying 

Expedite isn't needed. My husband got his first passport in April and it took 2 weeks without expedite.

If the children are under 15, even cheaper. :)

Forgive me if I missed this but, have the children gotten a US passport before? If this is the children's first passport, though, they will need to provide the Certificate of Citizenship to get them.

 

Just saying....

I did not know this. I stand corrected.

  • This info is from the USCIS page. For more Exatitude ....
  •  
  • If the child has not been issued a Certificate of Citizenship by USCIS, the passport application must include the following proof of acquisition of citizenship under the INA Section 320:
  1. Proof of the child's relationship to the U.S. citizen parent. For the biological child of the U.S. citizen this will usually be a certified copy of the foreign birth certificate (and translation if not in English). In circumstances where it is not clear that the birth certificate is adequate proof of a biological relationship between the child and the U.S. citizen parent, other types of evidence, including medical and/or DNA tests, may be requested. For an adopted child, it is a certified copy of the final adoption decree (and translation if not in English);
  2. Proof that the child is residing or has resided in the United States in the legal and physical custody of the U.S. citizen parent(s) pursuant to a lawful admission for permanent residence. The I-551 stamp endorsed in the child's foreign passport or the child's permanent resident or “green” card will establish lawful admission for permanent residence, but not the fact that the child is residing in or has resided in the United States as required by INA 320(a)(3). Separate evidence establishing that the child has resided in the United States in the legal and physical custody of the U.S. citizen parent(s) may be requested;
  3. Proof that the child is or was under the age of 18 when all conditions are met.
