So, I am biting nails here! :eek:
Sheri,

We just went through a harrowing experience with my daughter's passport renewal. We submitted it almost 17 weeks ago and did not expedite ( we were told we didn't need to! Yeah, right!). A few weeks ago I started reading in various message boards the horror stories. You have no idea!
We were advised to contact our Congressman, which we did. His aide helped us and , finally, yesterday wew received her passport!

Please have your parents contact their congressperson! It seems all congresspersons have an aide dedicated to this task!

It's a MESS!!!

Good luck!
