After seeing all the news about the long waits after we booked our flight, we were very nervous. We had already paid for expedited service and express shipping. But as our travel date got closer (end of May), we contacted our representative. We filled out the forms they sent us, but I’m not sure if it helped since they never responded after we sent the forms back.

We are still waiting for our kids passports. We had to wait even longer to submit their application as we couldn’t find an in-person appointment until April 4. Really hoping they get here in time!!!
