Expedited Passport Processing Time
This historical graph records expedited passport applications as a combined category. The chart is the average waiting time reported across expedited applications rather than separating first adult, renewal, and child applications, and it is not today’s published expedited figures.
Average Waiting Time Over Time
Each point is a weekly crowd-sourced average from the retired WordPress Visualizer archive for expedited applications collectively. Current published expedited figures are shown separately below. They are not averaged together and are not plotted on this line.
This historical series ends on October 9, 2023. There is a gap between that archive and today’s published statistics. The chart is not filled in with current published values.
Today’s Published Figures, Shown Separately
These are today’s published expedited figures, now split by application type. They are live PWT-USA statistics, not a continuation of the combined historical series above, and they are not averaged into one replacement line.

What This Graph Shows
Averages are crowd-sourced from applicant timelines submitted to Passport Waiting Time. They are a guide to typical processing times, not official U.S. Department of State figures and not a guarantee for any application.
The historic line predates the current application-type taxonomy. When PWT-USA moved to separate first adult, adult renewal, and child products, expedited applications stopped being recorded as one combined average. Treat this chart as an archive of that earlier method, not as a like-for-like continuation of today’s three expedited cards.
