You can check your passport application status online using the U.S. Department of State’s Passport Application Status Online System.
Looking for a passport status update? You can check your application on the U.S. Department of State’s Passport Application Status Online System: https://passportstatus.state.gov/. This is the official U.S. passport status website.
Please note this system is designed for standard post office submissions. If you applied through Fast Passport Center’s expedited hand-carry service, the passport status, submission date, and “2–3 week” processing estimates shown online may not reflect your actual timeline and can appear delayed or inaccurate.
For our expedited clients, the most important passport status update is when the status shows “Approved.” This typically means your passport has been completed and is on the way (often arriving the next day). In some cases, a tracking number will also be provided.
If you are a Fast Passport Center client and need the most accurate passport status update, please contact your Fast Passport Center representative or location with the applicant’s full name and date of birth. Kindly allow up to 24 hours for a response. Email is the fastest and most efficient way to receive an update.
