They will come First Class(Snail ) Mail from one of the 26 passport centers that processed it. No tracking.

Usually a week later than the PP, which came Priority.

 

You didn't pay Priority, you paid to expedite process, everyone gets Priority to and From.

I paid for Priority(additional 17-19 bucks i think ) and expedite (60) .but it looks like that Priority is only for the Passport and not for the NC certificates

What the USPS won't tell you:

 

You're at the "any town USA" USPS passport office, and pay Priority to send your application, right?

Im the next appointment in line behind you, and I DON'T pay Priority to send my application.

My application goes in the SAME bin that yours goes in, and sent to Texas that night. They both arrive at the same time.

Once your application arrives in Texas, yes, your $60 expedites processing.

 

When passports are processed, EVERYONE gets their passport back via Priority.

 

So don't pay for Priority.

Thanks for the response . But I believe the $ 17  Payment for express delivery is for the return of the passport faster not for faster passport application delivery to their processing center as per the note below from the state website. You are right irrespective of priority/expedite the onward journey of the passport application is same for all the applications the difference is on the return shipment . I wish they had a similar option for expedite for original back in faster manner not the regular mail . 

 

"1-2 Day Delivery Paid per application for 1-2 day delivery of an issued passport book from the Department of State to the customer. Only applies to mailing addresses within the United States. Not valid for passport cards"

My husband applied 01/05 at USPS and only got first “in process” update a couple of days ago. Not sure if the bottleneck is at USPS or the passport agency but it seems like a few weeks before anything shows up on the passport status page.
