U.S. Passport Service
Before visiting a foreign country, you should ensure that all your
travel concerns are addressed. Here are a few of the most common
questions my office receives that deal with passports:
How can I renew my existing passport?
If you already have a passport that is not damaged, was issued in
the past 15 years, was received after your 16th birthday, and has
your same name, you can apply for a passport renewal by mail.
I can't wait for the normal six week processing time of my application.
Can I request an expedite?
Yes. For an additional fee, you can request expedite processing which
normally takes two weeks.
