Need a U.S. Passport Immediately?

You should make an appointment to be seen at a Regional Passport Agency only if:

The U.S. passport is needed in less than 2 weeks for international travel
The U.S. passport is needed within 4 weeks to obtain a foreign visa
Contact the National Passport Information Center to make an appointment or locate a Passport Agency.

go to :

http://travel.state.gov/passport/npic/npic_898.html

https://passportappointment.travel.state.gov/

I also made an appointment online. It's a long overdue option. I discovered that new appointments post at midnight, for the newly added day. I waited until midnight, and was able to pick any time I wanted in NY. Game changer.

and make a appointment you will get it the same day or the next day , (depends when you are flying) .



If you need an expedited appointment call l 1-877-487-2778 at 8 AM SHARP EST. Press 1 1 2 2 to speak to a live rep to schedule you an expedited appointment.
Trick is to press the last 2 at 8AM, rather than starting the call at 8AM. I had 2 people try it this morning- one pressed "2" at 8AM and had no hold times and got an appointment for today. The second called at 8AM, had a 30 min wait, and was told that the closest they have available is in VT.

Do you need it expedited? If the answer is no, just go down to the County Clerk and do it there or mail in the application (Instructions), you'll save a nice couple of $.

What's the benefit of going to the county clerks office instead of going to the post office?

I need my passport by 11/13, but the Agency (NYC) doesn't have any appointments till 11/18.
How exactly is that "expedited"?

You can go to downtown Manhattan office at 7:00 am and they have a line to wait if you don't have appointment, and you can get same day passport if you have itinerary

They say 4-6 weeks, although its usually much less. You should be fine with a regular application.

I have a flight on Monday and can't find my passport. What are my options in NYC? I would have to be in the airport by 3. Even though it's expensive, does anyone have the number for the Boro Park overnight ones?

And it won't cost you ~$450.
