Has anyone renewed a US passport recently? If so, how long was it between mailing the application and receiving your new passport?

A friend of mine just renewed hers and it took 9 weeks.

As I mentioned in a prior post, a family member obtained a emergency passport in Paris in July. Application for full term passport (processed as a renewal) was received on August 7th and e-mail received today that new PP was issued and sent.

BTW, the emergency PP’s are valid only for a year. They are purple darker than EU passports. And POE inspectors regardless of nationality advise getting the permanent PP asap.

Thank you, that's good to know, as it is precisely in line with the official website advice.

Just renewed mine, was a couple of months.
No priority processing.

Thank you. .... Mrs P and I need to get ours in the mail no later than tomorrow!

I did mine a few months ago, so not exactly current times, but the times are likely better now as the summer travel season is coming to an end.

I did the expedited service and paid for express shipping both ways, and it took 5 weeks. Then another month or so for the Naturalization certificate to finally make its way back; was getting a bit worried about that.
