Why apply now?

Routine passport applications are now taking approximately six weeks. For an additional charge, expedited service will result in your obtaining your passport in approximately three weeks. But only in emergency circumstances can a passport application be processed more quickly, so do not delay.

The new rules:

As of January 23, 2007, everyone, including U.S. citizens, traveling by air from Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean and Bermuda are required to have a passport or other acceptable documentation in order to enter the United States. On June 1, 2009, the requirements will be extended to adults traveling by land or sea. And please note that many cruise lines are already requiring a passport to travel to any destination outside of the United States.
