      I drove to Atlanta to go to a passport agency in person and paid like $300 and they turned one around in about 4 hours. This was in 2015. I made an appointment beforehand, and I did have my expired passport in hand. You may be able to do this relying on other documents?

          @sabergirl thank you! it seems like their processes have changed quite a bit. they're so backed up and busy right now. we called last week and their only appointment was in El Paso, TX on the day we leave. We're in southern california. I've been reading a bit more about the passport agency offices and it seems they now have security that ensure you have an appt prior to even letting you in the building.

              That’s awful @marco23d . How long have you been waiting for them to turn around her passport?

                @sabergirl since February. we sent it in due to name change. if we knew it would be like this we would've not done it and traveled with name change documents. we inquired about cancelling her application but they stated that route takes a couple of weeks getting your old passport back

                  @sabergirl it was an emotional rollercoaster of a week. multiple calls on hold for hours. we leave tomorrow. my wife drove to LA without an appointment and they denied her entry to the agency. she called me to cancel our flight and i asked her to call the agency one last time. she did and got an appointment in san diego and they're printing her passport today. can't believe it!

                    What a horrible chain of events for it to finally work out. Congratulations and enjoy the honeymoon!! Might need an extra bottle or two to celebrate.

                                      @Gammaman there is a special leather glue. If you glue leather you have to use a glue that’s very flexible. Otherwise ask a cobbler for any tip since they are leatherworkers.
