How Far in Advance Can I Renew My US Passport?

this confusing i dont get it

Thank you, Maneesha, I appreciate your clarity and precision.

Helloo please I need an answer as soon as possible can I renew my American passport by email in Egypt ?

Question for anyone who can help:

I plan on going to Asia over Thanksgiving 2023 and my current passport expires in April 2024, so it won't be valid as it'll expire within 6 months.

I want to renew it right away, but I will be going to Mexico over the next few months for dental work.

I understand that in the US passport renewal process, I need to send my current passport back.

How do I avoid this? Surely there must be a way? I don't have a passport card and I wish I got one as I understand you can use a card in lieu of your passport at the Southern Border.

Maybe I just declare my passport missing and request a new one? Will that take longer than an expedited normal renewal?

Thanks in advance!

Lets go Brandon. Will wait for Trump to come back to renew mine.

I just applied for my passport at a USPS office today 6/13/2023, standard what time. Will update when I receive it

Can I renewing post office instead of state department

My passport expired 3 years ago. How do I go about renewing it

I have a question. If my passport was issued when i was 15 years old, (currently 22) do i renew or do i apply for a new passport? Also, im in Mexico and need to go to a US embassy to do this, but i dont want to make many trips to it, since its 5 hour away from where i live.

Currently paused as of May 22, 2023 so this video is not helpful. Next.

I need my passport renewal soon. I am going to Mexico for surgery, and will only be there for a few days. Me and a friend are flying in and back Is there a way I can get it sooner?

If you have to renew your passport it should not be bad If you are expediting it. Mines was received on 05/03/2023 and received it in the mail 05/17/2023. I mailed my expired passport in.

I applied for a Passport 4 months ago on January 12th. I haven’t received it and the post office gave me the tracking # for the application and says it was in transit in PA but then nothing…. The department of state said they don’t know where it is and I’ll have to apply again… what can I do!?

Excellent, exactly what I wanted to know and succinct

Would be nice but no longer available at all... "On March 8, we paused our limited release of the online renewal service, so that we can introduce improvements based on customer feedback."

very helpful tips thank you !

what is the link to renew your passport online

If my passport expires in July 2024, can I do now online? Thanks

My passport came in under 1 month, still waiting on passport card. I paid for expedited service and mailed in old passport with the form all via snail mail USPS. The office in Philadelphia received it per USPS tracking over weekend At end of March on 24th, New passport came in Saturday April 23 2023. So about 5 weeks Expedited and paid with Money orders.

Well described, and explained along with options, online or in-person. Thanks to Maneesha. 😎👏👍

Let’s go Brandon!

ONLINE APPLICATION RECEIVED JAN 22 2023 , 9.5 WEEKS LATER , IT IS STILL PROCESSING !

My passport expires in August 2023. How far in advance should I begin renewal?

can i renew my passport using passport card?

can i renew my passport that already have holes punched in it?

Please stop your vocal fry when you speak! It is irriating!

I applied online on January 28th. I can’t even log in online to check status and can’t seem to find a number where they pick up? I have a trip planned in 3 weeks. I paid extra for faster service too

I submitted online with expedited service on 12/16/2022. Today is 3/14/2023. Almost 3 months...still in process. I called and waited for more than 2 hours and gave up. Today I called again. I talked to three different people and they kept passing my call to other. It has been two hours and I am listening to the waiting music and the recorded voice. I am really curious this department or service is actually run by U.S. Gov't

How long procedure is this for first time passport book and I paid 60$ how many weeks I can get it????

What a US Passport backlog mess ! Co-workers just fell under the 14 day international travel mark and called in real early made an appointment for expediate pps !
They had applied in later Nov 2022 for online renewal for four in the family and never got any emails or feedback ! They had to go into emergency mode on this one and did get all four pps made in one day ! I myself applied online in early Jan and have no feedback or updates yet ! My 14 day international travel window will be mid March here !
Poor Dept of State customer service ! I would like to see how they actually process US pp renewals from the database to the physical book making !
Hand processed with limited machines ! 350 million of us living here and PPP government ! I have seen and been with others at their countries pp service centers and they are way better with cheerful staff and plenty of machines to create them !

I applied on 26 of February 2023anand they charged me $90.00 but I don't know what is the next procedure let me know please thanks 03_09_2023

way too complicated asn additional video is needed for those of us never uploading a picture...upload? sd card? click what? what hole does this go in?

go somewhere else, no offense they take your money, but you can't get updates, if you go to Facebook thier site says even thier expedited service has not arrived, and the site is always down, if you call no one answers,

Apparently there is a glitch where those who renewed on Februrary 6-13 are not able to get their status. If your status says not available, state department is working to get your passport out. If you need a passport in the next two weeks (28 days if you need a VISA for this trip), then contact them to get an in person appointment at an agency.

I have gotten NO RESPONSE. I renewed in January and heard nothing. No emails, no updates, phone number hangs up immediately, Staus Update link is broken! Did I get scammed?

I applied by mail 12-29-22 for first-time passport books for my children 9 and 15 years of age. Today, we reached the 9 week mark. I am extremely nervous since we have plans to travel to Canada 3/24/23, and my application stutus is still "IN PROCESS." As a sole custodian parent, I submitted all supporting documents along with my application. I was wondering if the extra paperwork will impact the timeline of my application? And if there is anything I can do to expedite this process? Thank you.

Can I apply my us passport and my kids passport together at same time

I applied online 1/8/23. Today is 2/28/23 and my application is still in process. I do not recommend applying online if you are expecting to travel soon. I also expedited everything. I have travel plans on 3/21/23. Any suggestions on what I should do?

My kid applied in person and got her passport within 6 weeks. I applied online and still no passport after 7 weeks. Should have applied it by mail.
Edit: finally got my online passport. It tooks 8 weeks for standard process. Don’t trust online status, it isn’t real time.

I qualified for renewing my passport online via the new renewal process and submitted my passport renewal online on Jan. 7, 2023. I paid for expedited processing and mail service and, at the time, it said that expedited service meant that the online renewal of my passport would take 3-5 weeks. It's now been 7+ weeks since I submitted my application (I'm writing this on Feb. 28, 2023) and anytime I speak with the passport folks (i.e., those in charge of the online renewal passport process), it's usually a 3+ hour wait to just talk to them. They also state that they don't have any information for me as my application has been 'In process' now for several weeks. I was scheduled to travel to South America this coming Friday (March 3, 2023), but it looks like that trip will now be cancelled due to this very slow/inefficient online renewal process. There are no 'urgent' appointments available at any passport offices near me (tonight, the person said that only the Honolulu and San Juan, Puerto Rico had appointments before Friday). In short: If anyone is considering using this online renewal option: DON'T; just use the regular/standard mail-in option as that is currently the quickest way to renew.

Thx U Maneesha!

I applied on line 1st week of Jan. 2023 and the status of my application currently only shows as “Received” on Jan 4th 2023. So just over 7 weeks now and not even in processed status yet. I call their help number to see if I can find out what’s going and their phone system gives me no option to speak to anyone. If anyone has had any success in speaking with an actual human being I’d really appreciate you sharing that info with me. I’m now wishing I’d have gone the mail in route 😡

They never answer the phone.

I turned 20 so i can’t do it online I’m
Confused
