COMPANY FEES
We offer three speeds for all expediting passport clients. All speeds are GUARANTEED. Working days are only Monday through Friday. Weekends and federal holidays are not working days. There are times where DOS will place your application on hold to ask for more additional documents to clarify something. If DOS requests any additional documentation from you, they will email both of us. Occasionally, depending on the severity of their findings, DOS will communicate directly with you and not CC us. These are rare cases like IRS debts, Child Support Arrears, False Birth Reports, or Criminal Warrants. If you receive an email like this, please notify us immediately.

USPS FEES
This fee is $35, and can be paid with debit/credit card at your assigned USPS appt. This fee only applies to clients who will require an OATH, also known as ID Verification. This is a government-mandated step for all first-time passport clients, and for clients who lost their most recent passport or had it stolen. This step only takes 10-15 minutes: you sign in front of an agent, and they seal all your documents inside an envelope. Your envelope must be given to our company for processing.
