The standard route
- •6–8 weeks routine, or 3–4 weeks "expedited" door-to-door
- •In-person appointment often required
- •No error review — a mistake means a restart
- •Agency same-day visits need a confirmed appointment and travel

South Pasadena passport FAQ
An expedited passport is identical to a standard one — it's simply rushed through the government facility so it's completed in days instead of weeks. It's the right choice when you have travel coming up sooner than routine processing allows.
Urgent Passport offers guaranteed expedited processing in as few as 3 business days. The post office's "expedited" service typically still takes 3 to 4 weeks.
Choose your service above and submit your order online. We email your document checklist immediately, review your paperwork with you, and you overnight it to us for expedited processing.
A new passport requires a certified birth certificate and a valid photo ID. A renewal requires your most recent passport, issued within the last 15 years and after age 16. We'll send you the exact checklist for your service.
Most local pharmacies and shipping or print shops offer passport photos in a few minutes — call ahead to confirm. You can also take one at home if it meets the State Department's requirements, which we'll walk you through.
That's exactly what we prevent. We review your paperwork with you over the phone before you ship it, so it arrives correct and avoids the delays a rejection would cause.
Yes. You can track status on our website, and we email updates as your application moves through processing.
