In January it took 2 weeks and a day mailed to my house. Odd part is, the passport was issued the day after I gave it to them in KK.

I assume that the app is sent digitally to the US, but the new passport hast to be physically brought back here.

The ACS Outreach visit program is one of the best benefits ever.
