Excellent! I'll be interested to know what condition your certificate of naturalization is in when it is returned to you. I have heard recently of people receiving them with staple holes, folds, damage, creases, etc in them. 

I got my naturalization certificate back and it was in good shape. i did not see any obvious damage or holes.

Here is my passport timeline:

 

09-Apr  =  Received Naturalization Certificate, Oath Ceremony at Irving, TX

12-Apr  =  Applied for Passport & Card at USPS, Gainesville TX (no appointments available in DFW area)

14-Apr  =  "Application In Process" email from US Dept. of State

15-Apr  =  Check cashed

27-Apr  =  "Application Approved" email

28-Apr  =  Passport & Card shipped (from Little Rock, AR)

01-May =  Passport received

03-May =  Passport Card received

 

Happy with the turn-around times. The lady at USPS said expedited is 4-6 weeks, so 3 weeks is pretty good - actually it is exactly 2 weeks from "In Process" to "Shipped".

Yet to receive my Naturalization Certificate, it will probably arrive sometime this week.

Hello,

Did anyone applied for passport in NY recently and probably are not in the google spreadsheet list we have here, how long did it take you? I'm waiting for my expedite and no changes since April 19th 'in process', so wondering how normal it is. (have travel plans asap)

Took me and a few other people here over a month to receive it. Like others said, they mail it with large envelope, and after I received it I found out the shipping date on the envelope was indeed over a month ago, so the mailpiece did spend that many days on the road. It should eventually arrive.
