acquiring a Passport

is there a special place you go to to get a passport?

post office? social security? dmv?

also, do you have to get photos done ebfore you apply for one? or do they do it there?

Go right to a post office that does the pics on site. It was so easy, we got ours in like a month!

Re: acquiring a Passport

I would give a bit more time than a month. From what I have read, it takes longer now b/c of the new regulations.

You can do it at an office in the city for a rush. You have to pay some type of rush fee but I have an old co worker that got it the same day.

I agree. My brother applied for his regular service back in late March and got it in late July.

My brother's SILs applied for theirs expedited service in June and got them in about a month.
