Has anyone renewed their passport here in the US recently? How long does the process usually take???
Thanks.

one day in NYC if you tell ur problem 10am -3pm from mon to thurs. Friday is half chutti.

Otherwise 2 -3 days. But before you go at office call them and ask them about it to make sure.

Thanks gal1,

I am not close to NYC. So I'll have to do this by mail. Has anyone done this before by mail??? How long does it take?

It normally takes around a week or so. I had mine renewed couple of months ago. Its usually easier and faster if there's someone who can take it to the embassy personally. Otherwise you can just mail it. When you mail your old passport, application for renewal and a check or money order, be sure to include a return envelope with signature confirmation, just so that it doesn't get lost in the postal system. Also, if you want the passport renewed urgently, you can call them up and let them know. They are usually pretty good about sending it back quickly.

Thanks a lot for the info.
