I had my oath on November 15th.

Passport application submitted on November 17th.

Received my passport yesterday December 7th. 

 

I didn't pay for expedited processing, and I was told the wait would be 7-10 weeks. It ended up being much faster than that.

Has anyone had issues with their passport app getting stalled inside the USPS system itself? Mine was sent out from the USPS post office last Thursday and was 1 day express but hasn't updated since it got to Philadelphia.
