New US passport- took 1 week!!!

Bug has been home a year and his visa has expired if we would every need to travel out of the US and I figure it was time to get the passport stuff done. My post office was accepting passport aplications on 31May, a Saturday. So, I took the all documents, got the photos taken, paid the fees and figured that it would be months before I got the new passport and all my documents back.
We have a trip planned for December, so I figured I needed to get moving on the passport-


The new passport arrived today- it was issued 06Jun. Incrediable- 1 week later I have a US passport for Bug in hand along with all the original documents back. I guess the delays from last year are gone this year.

love to you,

So, what did you submit to get the passport, besides the application, fees, and photos.

I snet all the documens required in the application- US BC, COC and his Guatemala. I also included his Guatemalan BC (copy) and the final adoption decree (copy).

I just used the checklist in the application and sent everything I had, jus tin case. I wanted no delays in getting the passport.

Love to you,
Deb
