We renewed ours last year. We had to print out and complete the renewal form that we found online. Then we had the passport photos taken at Walgreens. We sent the renewal form, the new photo and the old passport to where ever the website told us for people living in Florida. Each application had to be in a separate envelope, but the two envelopes could be mailed In one larger envelope. I could not find a way to renew just online.

Our son sent in a renewal form for a passport approximately 4 weeks ago. We called the State Department yesterday, and spoke with an agent, she told us because of Covid-19, processing time had gone from 4-6 weeks to months (an undetermined number). We're not sure when he will get his renewal.

I also need to renew my passport and on the US Passport website they tell you that if you are not traveling for an emergency, to wait until the offices are open to renew them, if you send the application now it could take up to 6 months or more. I printed out the application from their website: Renew my U.S. passport. Good luck.

Summerfield Post Office does it all, photo, form and sending everything to the Passport Office BUT PLEASE PHONE them first for info I had mine done there on 14th Feb.. they sent it away and it STILL has NOT come back as the Passport Offices have been closed since March because of the Virus............

Not all post offices are passport offices, the Summerfield on 301is, get the form there, you will need a passport photo (Walgreens) (make also sure that you do not smile) make an appointment at the post office and go in person with all documents filled including the old passport, they will tell you the amount (bring your checkbook) and that is it. (When we did ours the Old passport Was NOT expired) after you send it wait 6 weeks and you will get the new one via mail, there is an expedited service, but we did not use it.
Good luck, dealing with any post office is an ordeal in itself.

Sent ours back for renewal, per website instructions, 2 months later, still no passports. Dealing with Government is never an easy or efficient process.

You cannot renew a passport online. The State Department only accepts renewals by mail or you can use a passport office. If you google "passport renewal" there are private companies who will do most of the paperwork for you for a fee. But, I believe they still send you the paperwork for you to mail it in. It is very easy to do the paperwork yourself using the State Department website. I have found that, when the expedited service is available, it costs an extra $60, and you still may not get the passport any faster.

Also, you can order a passport card in addition to the regular passport for about $30 extra. This is a good idea because it can be used for some trips, and to board airplanes if your drivers license is not a certified real ID. I understand that airlines are soon going to be prohibited from allowing people to board airplanes with a drivers license that doesn't meet Federal requirements. Many states are not in compliance with the Federal rules. Your Florida license is in compliance, if your license has a "star" on it in the upper right corner.

You can go online and print the form for renewal and send your old passport your new photo and form in by mail. Then just wait. I would use some kind of usps tracking.

No matter what your looking for , if you have smart phone just go to safari and write a question , I found 6 places including a quick turnaround office it only takes a second , it works for computer also but I long ago got rid of computer

check state dept for passport renewals
 

I last checked, the state department was advising you not to try to renew unless it was an energeny. They warned that mailed paperwork would sit for months. If anyone knows different, please tell me. My passport is expiring in Jan and I have a great trip planned for March

Passport
 

I just went on the U.S. State Department's website and downloaded the form. I mailed them in, along with a check and my passport photo (which you can have taken at several different places such as CVS and Walgreen's).
