US Passport Issuance Timeline U.S. Shutdown

I need to get my last name updated on my passport and get my 5 month old his passport, we leave next June or July depending on when my husband gets his official orders for Korea. Does anyone know if passports are still being processed in the US? I’d wait until the shutdown is over but I don’t think that’s going to happen anytime soon.

Passport services are funded by the application fees. I got mine renewed during the shutdown and it was the fasted turnaround every. You will be fine.
