Swift bringing back their expedited passport processing will help travelers looking to obtain their passport in time for their upcoming trip.
CHICAGO, IL – Swift Passport and Visa Services has resumed offering their expedited passport processing service. Passport processing has been backlogged since the beginning of the pandemic, which has led to major delays in passport processing times. Current standard passport processing can take up to 18 weeks, which can make it difficult for people to obtain a passport in time for their trip. Travelers should continue to expect significant delays when it comes to obtaining a passport when opting for standard processing time.
Swift bringing back their expedited passport processing will help travelers looking to obtain their passport in time for their upcoming trip. This is key considering that the US Passport Agency is experiencing significant passport processing delays due to a huge backlog of passports. The The travel.state.gov website states that current routine passport processing times can take up to 18 weeks, including up to 12 weeks for processing as well as 5-6 weeks for mailing. Opting to go with the expedited processing option through the US Passport Agency will take up to 12 weeks, including up to 6 weeks processing and 5-6 weeks for mailing.
