Single Status Update

After dilly dallying for 1 week whether to apply to update SSN or Passport, I have decided to do the SSN update later. Applied for American passport (both passport book and passport card, $140) on June 26th at the local USPS post office (Libraries are closed, 1st time applicant should go in-person). Instead of handwriting the form, I filled the details using the 'Filler form' online and printed the PDF document. 2x2 photos from Costco. The lady who processed my application said it may take 8 to 10 weeks to get my passport in mail ! That time frame is not bad assuming there is a huge backlog ! Once, I get passport, I will update the SSN card with naturalization status. Hopefully the SSA offices are open by then for walk-in's !

It appears that one can search passport production status online. I even registered myself on the site with my email for updates. Currently, the status is 'in process' (below).

Your application is "In Process" which means your form(s) and supporting documents are with the Department of State. We will review your application as our staff return to our agencies and centers as part of our three-phase reopening plan.
At this time, we cannot provide an update on when you will receive your passport and the return of your citizenship documents. We plan to offer normal processing times in phase three of our reopening plan. For more information, read our COVID-19 update.
