Once AmericanPassport.com received my documents, how much time will AmericanPassport.com need for processing?
Foreign governments have varied regulations on visa processing timeframes. Routine U.S. passport processing time is 6-8 weeks. However, U.S. Passport Agencies will expedite passport processing for an additional fee. AmericanPassport.com’s Customer Information Request (CIR) will include an estimate of how long your process will take. You should have AmericanPassport.com process your documents as soon as you know all of your travel details. Having your documents completed in advance will ensure there are no delays in processing your paperwork in the event a consulate requires additional information. Be advised that AmericanPassport.com processes your document according to the NEED DATE given on your paperwork. Therefore, if you list your NEED DATE four days after your paperwork is received, but you actually don’t need it for three weeks, AmericanPassport.com will charge you a rush fee based on your need date of four days.
