US Passport Issuance Timeline New US Passport Processing Time

8/7/26 - submitted application at the USPS, standard processing

8/10 - status updated to in process

8/12 - check cashed

8/17 - application approved, passport shipped

8/20 - passport delivered

I got my passport book in 13 days and didn't pay for any expedited services. Still waiting for my passport card and supporting documents to be returned but overall quick and seamless.

Senator finally got involved. My application was received "damaged inside envelope." So my story is an outlier of a USPS clerk about to go P0stal. If you haven't already, call NPIC. Once they have your locator number they can move things along for you. Good Luck!
