I would like to know also. I'm going to apply for a passport card next week but don't know if it will get here in time.

OK so I'm going tomorrow to apply. They said it could take up to 12 weeks so I will have to pay for it to be expedited. You only need the passport card and not the book if you are going into Mexico on land.

I live in NY so the have an ID card that is just like the pass port card which is amazing..

When I went to get mine they said 5-7 weeks, but it came in 2! I didn't even have to expedite it.

I went with just 12 weeks to spare to apply for mine, like to the day, and was worried. The passport agent told me that they were just running at about 3 weeks at the time and indeed, mine came in about three weeks.

I'll be crossing with my federal gold star drivers license and birth certificate tomorrow. I'll let you all know if they let me back in ;)

I got mine in February. They said 3-4 weeks but at 3 1/2 they called and said they were behind and asked if I wanted to expedite or change my trip...I paid the expedite fee over the phone.

Look to see if there is a passport processing center near you. I would have never thought in a million years there would be one in a little town outside the capital city where I live and in Arkansas of all places.

I applied for my passport through our local Post Office and it came back in less than two weeks. I didn't expedite the process. I was very impressed!

I just applied today through the clerk of courts. I choose to expedite it for $60.00 more.

They said it should take two to three weeks.

I'm not suggesting it because my passport was both expired and lost, but I got across the border with my enhanced DL and birth certificate. They asked me rather sternly why I didn't have my passport, where I was born etc.

If you are in a pinch don't worry unless maybe you are of Hispanic descent or have an accent.

I got across with drivers license and birth certifcate with no problem. There was another girl who was in van and she didn't have a problem either.
