Passport Rates Set To Increase Next Week
We may be in middle of a pandemic, but starting on Monday, December 27th, the US State Department will increase what it costs to renew or get a new passport. Maybe they will use those funds to finally bring the process online?
Have a valid passport handy, so if you don't, consider taking the opportunity to get one for everyone in your family before rates increase next week.
·  New passports for those 16+ will climb from $145 to $165.
·  Renewing passports for those 16+ will climb from $110 to $130.
·  Passports for those under 16 will climb from $115 to $135. Renewals aren't allowed for children's passports and children's passports are only valid for 5 years instead of 10 for those 16+.
·  Expedite fees remain $60 for processing and $17.56 for express return shipping.
Current processing times are about 41 days for children, 44 days days for renewing adult passports, and 50 days for new adult passports. With expedited service you can expect a turnaround of about 22 days.
You can schedule a passport appointment via USPS or by calling your local library.
Do you have a passport for everyone in your family?

I'm a firm believer that everyone should have a valid passport handy, so if you don't, consider taking the opportunity to get one for everyone in your family before rates increase next week.
