Where it use to take 6-8 weeks for processing a new passport, as of mid-March 2007, it is now taking 10-12 weeks! The expedited service is now taking 3-4 weeks! That means if you haven't applied for your new passport by now and are traveling early summer (early June), you better pay for the expedited service.
Don't end of having your vacation ruined and having to cancel your trip, due to failure of receiving your passport in time for departure.
