Ridiculous expedited online Passport renewal time.

US based passport (apologies for the oversight in the title).

I submitted my renewal last Friday with the email confirmation received at 8:01 pm. I received the renewed passport today. So what’s that, 3 business days and then overnight shipping? Holy crap.

I checked my email this week a couple times just to see if the process had started and it said the application typically starts within 2 weeks.

Just wanted to share my surprise. Thank you for joining my TED Talk.
