    We just recently (2 months ago) submitted and received ours. Took only 4 or 5 weeks. We had our stuff already filled out and documentation in hand and went to the post office to submit it on Colfax and Chambers.

    Ive found that wearing a "Death to America" shirt in your photo will really, really, really......really delay the process.

    I went to the Northglenn office, made an appointment for 8:00 am.
    Went in, filled out forms, paid $155 ($110 for book, rest for pictures and other fees) first timer is more. Left about 20 minutes after.
    They took my citizenship certificate.
    Went 12/31, got my citizenship certificate back 1/11, nothing else yet.

    I would go to one that can do photos as well. We went to Walgreens and Walgreens screwed up our pictures, so we had them done on site luckily.

    According to the Department of State website, passport apps are business as usual at this time.

    it always peeved me that they charge 10+$ for passport photos - the passport website has a tool to help you size your photos, and you can fit six 2x2 photos on a 0.25$ print - use the other 5 for when you apply for your stamps!

    The same place that does finger prints and photos can use your same photos for passports.

    Excited that you'll be traveling abroad for the first time ever. Can't wait to hear all about it.

    Also, you cannot wear a full face burka in your passport photo.

    Thanks for the useful information.


    So, I?m currently sporting a beard but chances are I may not when it comes travel time. Hope that doesn?t throw anyone for a loop when my trip comes.

    Also, do I put my hair color as brown or gray? I?m kind of in that in between stage at this point in my life.

    Those are two good questions, do you put salt & peppa for hair color when you are going grey ? What about women that change their hair color with the seasons ? And beards & facial hair is a good question also ?
