    Expedited passport after naturalization

    in US Citizenship General Discussion

    Posted

    essentially same day service is available. it all depends on what you are willing to pay for that service.

    This is just an update for information as I was posted the original question!

    I applied for US citizenship with a 319(B) - my interview/oath ceremony (same day in Newark) was in October and I wanted to return home as soon as possible so was curious about how quickly I could get my US passport.

    I had my US passport the day after my interview/oath ceremony and was set to fly home by following these steps:

    1. Based on the day of my interview/oath ceremony (ie. Oct 23) I wanted to get my passport on Oct 24th. I called the US passport agency 14 days prior to the 24th to schedule an appt. I took the first appt of the day which was 7:30am so that I wouldn't get caught in any backlog.

    2. I passed my test/interview had my oath ceremony and received my certificate on the 23rd. Showed up at the US passport agency on the 24th at 7:30am. I was the first person through - filled out the application form, showed my proff of travel within the 14 day rqmt, paid $65 or $75, was given a receipt and was told to come back at 10am.

    3. I arrived a little earlier and at 9:45am I had my passport. It was a very quick and painless process!!

    I applied for US Citizenship through 319(B) - we are living overseas, husband is US Citizen with US firm etc.

    I received my notice for interview/oath ceremony last week and I am scheduled to appear in Newark, NJ.

    As we live overseas I am flying back specifically for the interview and I am trying to figure out quickly after the interview/oath I can book my return ticket. I understand that once I have taken the oath that I am an American citizen and require a US passport to leave/enter the country.

    I can't quite get a clear answer as to how quickly I can get my US passport. I will have proof of travel - is it true that with this documentation I can make an appointment at a US Passport agency office (I know that one of the 10 of these offices are in NY) and have my passport issued the same day?

    Any help/experience with a similar situation would be appreciated!
