Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
For various reasons, I've decided to get a U.S. Passport card to have in addition to my existing valid passport. My understanding is since I have a valid passport, I would send that in with the application for the passport card. I assume that the passport itself would be returned without renewal since it's only three years old. I'm wondering what the current turn around time is for such applications these days and would it make sense to pay for expedited service so I won't be without a passport for an extended length of time? Anyone who has done it recently, I'd love to hear your experience.
