I STILL haven't done it (bad mommy, I know!) but I have been told by others to expect a year! Crazy, isn't it?!

We haven't done it and don't plan to, but I've heard from more than one reliable source that the new COCs are taking ~1year. Passports are MUCH faster!

I sent for mine in November of 2005 and received them back in about February or March of 2006. They did have to send the applications and pictures back to me once for corrections though.

BTW - I live in Indiana
