Received my naturalization certificate and applied for passport

[katalaya 44]

Hi everyone!! Just giving the latest updates. My ceremony was on March 08, 2021 at 1pm. Very easy process in and out in less than 20 mins. The lady who host the ceremony went up at said a few words and then we all took a brochure from the package that we received . We stood up and said the oath after she did. ( She read and then we repeated what was said)  Then she told us to check our certificates to make sure everything is correct, and if it is not we can make corrections for free today. However, if any other corrections should take place later we would pay a fee. Everything was pretty smooth and quick. I applied for passport on March 10,2021, 2 days after my ceremony.  This is my question,Has anyone applied for passport since year, if so, how long does it takes? I did expedition service they said 4-6 weeks.

congratulations. 
 

Regular passport service seems to be taking around 4 weeks at the moment, expedited seems currently around 3 weeks or slightly less.

Yes my husband applied recently and it took him a little over 4 weeks, regular processing. There is a passport tracker thread going on in the “now you are a citizen” forum, there were huge delays for those applying late last year but it seems for those applying this year most timelines are around what I said above. Around 4 weeks for regular and maybe a week-10 days faster for expedited.

Thank you very much. I appreciate your help. As, I was about to cancel my ticket to travel for Jamaica. Let me wait and see what happens before.

I don’t see the “now you are a citizen forum”. Is there a link?
