Same here - just try to call them , i've been trying 8am - 1pm and had same experience but was able to get into the queue ~2PM (all PST). I guess due to call back the queue is stacked and you can't get through. I was planning to try to start 5am (PST so 8AM EST) when they opens and queue is not yet stacked but it's just my assumption 

 

Good luck !

Hello everyone! 

I sent my application 10 days ago and chose the expedited service. It was received two days ago and when I check the status it says that I chose the routine service which will take up to 12 weeks. I paid for the expedited fee along with the 1-2 day shipping hopping to get my passport before my urgent travel by the end of this month. I am worried that they made a mistake. They have not cashed the check I sent and when I called them and spoke two times to the phone representative they both seemed to be not sure of what is going on and they kept telling me to wait. Anyone had this experience before? How long did it take them to cash the check after the application was received? Is there a way I can reach someone who will give me a clear answer? I am stressed and tired of waiting 2hrs+ on hold and not get a straight answer 😪 Thank you!!

I applied from Bay Area in California

Should I be worried?

 

Hello everyone!

 

I submitted my passport application on 05/20/2021, expedited service. My check was cashed on 05/28. But my online status is still "Not Available" as of today, 3 weeks after submission and 2 weeks after my check was cashed. I called them several times, but was never able to talk to an agent. Should I be worried? What actions should I take? Thank you.

Did you include a check with EXACT amount they are requesting for expedited services?
