Yeah, a passport or passport card is required to cross back into the states

Ya looked it up right after I posted! Won't be here in time for me!

I mailed my passport renewal form on June 19th. I still haven't gotten my card yet. I've got 3 more weeks till I leave, but I'm starting to worry. How long did it take y'all to get yours?

I used to work for the passport agency and this is one of their busiest times. Sometimes takes up to 6 weeks for all to get scanned, approved, printed, then mailed out. Also throw in 4th of July holiday in there. If you didn't expedite it, it will take the normal time. You can check the status of your passport here:

I just got back from Mexico my passport had not arrive yet.. I took my original BC and valid ID and I was okay to cross back over no issues at all...

That is what I thought! I still want to get a passport for traveling purposes not just for this but if I didn't expedite it & even then it may not be here for August 12th & I don't want to push it back to December since that's when I will have a break from school!

I was told my drivers license and my birth certificate were good enough... That's what I will be going with.

I just checked the web site, it says I should be getting my passport card on or by 7/17/13, Yeah!!! but good to know if anything happens I'll be OK with just my driver's license and birth certificate. Had I known that before, I could have saved myself $46, for the passport card, picture and registered mail postage (that could have been a new pair of jeans
