I was simply amazed and left only to believe in magic (and yes, she's handled similar asks for business traveler friends of mine, too!). But what really stood out wasn't just the unbelievable result, it was the way the team at Express Travel Services handled everything along the way. Karina brought such professionalism, organization, and genuine care to what was honestly a very stressful situation for me. She and her network worked tirelessly to make what felt almost impossible seem seamless. Every detail was handled thoughtfully, and I always felt like I was in good hands with constant, personalized updates along the way. If they could deliver on a request this difficult, I have no doubt they can handle just about any travel or visa need you may have. Truly above and beyond service. Six out of five stars. Thank you again, Karina!

Passport Now just saved my arse and it didn't cost me a dime. How great is that? All started cpl…read moredays ago when I was checking into my intentional flight and the airline system wouldn't let me due to 'passport validity'. My passport expires in 5 months and me being an idiot didn't know about most countries 6 months minimum rule. So it's a Sunday and I'm freakin' out and I come across Passport Now and gave them a call. Went to voicemail. I received a text right away to which I replied asking someone to call me back asap. Shortly later I get a call back from Larry, who turned out to be a Godsend. I explained to him my situation and Larry was honest and said the quickest turnaround time they could do for me was a cpl days which wouldn't work for me since my flight was Monday night. So Larry advised me and gave some suggestions that I could do myself to try to get a new passport by the next day. Long story short, everything Larry suggested was spot on. Not gonna lie, it was still pretty stressful naturally but I was able to get a new passport by Monday afternoon and make my international flight later in the evening. I am going to recommend Passport Now to any friends that need their services, They are top notch and truly care about helping people out.

I can easily HIGHLY recommend using Passport Now for your future travel needs. You won't be disappointed.

As the deadline for renewing my passport online approached, I realized a little too late that I didn't qualify for online renewal because my passport was considered damaged. The page requiring my signature had completely torn out of the passport, although I still had the loose page. I spent several days worrying about whether this would actually be considered "damage" since my photo page, passport number, and all of my identifying information were still completely intact. Unfortunately, it did qualify as a damaged passport, meaning I was no longer eligible to renew online. Since my passport was also expired and I had upcoming travel, I had to wait until I was within 14 days of my departure before I could schedule an urgent travel appointment at a U.S. Passport Agency. During that waiting period, I spent quite a bit of time navigating the U.S. Department of State website so I would know exactly what to expect and have everything ready once I became eligible to make an appointment. The morning I became eligible, I logged in right away and was able to secure an appointment for seven days later. I was actually out of town, so I couldn't take one of the earlier appointments that were available, but I was pleasantly surprised that there were still multiple appointment times to choose from. Before my appointment, I completed the passport renewal application online. However, because my passport was damaged, I ended up completing a different application at the agency instead. If your passport is damaged, don't worry if you've already filled out the renewal form - it wasn't a problem. The appropriate form is also available online if you'd rather complete it ahead of time. I also chose to get my passport photos taken at UPS before my appointment. The Passport Agency does offer passport photo services if needed, but taking care of them beforehand can help speed things up a bit. One thing I wasn't expecting was that I needed to provide a written statement explaining how my passport became damaged. They simply handed me a blank sheet of paper at the appointment, and I wrote a brief explanation. If you already know your passport is damaged, you can absolutely prepare this statement in advance. Overall, the appointment itself was incredibly smooth. From the time I walked in until I left, the entire process took less than 30 minutes. The staff were professional, organized, and helpful throughout the process. The best part? I'll be picking up my new passport just two days after my appointment. If you're in a similar situation, here's my biggest advice: - Don't panic if your passport is damaged - you still have options. - Review the passport requirements carefully before assuming you qualify for online renewal. - If you need an urgent travel appointment, be ready to schedule as soon as you become eligible. - Bring passport photos ahead of time if you want to save a little time. - Prepare a brief written explanation of how your passport was damaged. - Most importantly, the process is much less intimidating than it seems. I know how stressful it can be when you're worried about upcoming travel, so hopefully this helps someone else feel a little more prepared. Good luck, and safe travels!

I asked how much they charged and she just sighed " I don't know! I wouldn't know until you brought them in. You need your paperwork." It was so an abrupt and rude I simply chuckled and left.

Without realizing it, my passport had expired, so my dad recommended that I get it renewed at…read morePostal Etc. My parents always came here for their passport and visa needs, and the manager Connie Ngo took excellent care of them. When I called to confirm if she was still doing passports, Connie was very pleasant on the phone. She gave me a few pointers on what to wear. Since the background of the photo will be white, she suggested that I wear something colorful so my photo won't look washed out. She also mentioned that she accepted cash, checks, and money orders. Credit cards were also accepted, but there was a 3% surcharge. It was nice that she told me this information upfront, because I typically do no carry a lot of cash and I certainly do not bring my checkbook with me when I go out. I would have incurred a 3% surcharge on my credit card had she not disclosed this information upfront. Upon arrival, Connie warmly greeted me and gave me a form to complete for my passport renewal, then proceeded to take my photo. After that, she verified my form was completed and asked if I will be getting a passport book only, or passport with a passport card (government ID). She explained the benefits of getting this ID card, so I decided to get it for $45 extra. She also explained that in 8-11 weeks, I will receive 3 separate items in the mail: my old passport with holes punched it to make it invalid, my new passport book, and my passport ID card. I made out 2 checks: US Dept of State: $160 (passport book & passport ID card) Postal Etc: $65.06 (service fee, including passport photos) Connie mentioned that if I travel to countries that require a visa, she can help get that prepared and she can be a resource to confirm if a country needs a visa. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience. I came at a busy time and Connie was basically running the show herself. She had a high school kid help out, but he was practically useless. She had to give him orders on the simplest of tasks, but he still wasn't able to do it right, so she had to step in. If you come and don't get Connie's undivided attention, have patience. She's doing her best to tend to all customers and keep things moving. She's a direct and no-nonsense kind of lady, and this attitude may come off as rude, but I didn't find her rude. There was a customer who was pumping the liquid hand sanitizer and made a mess on her counter, so she told him "it's liquid, not gel, so take it easy on the pumping and don't leave a mess." Despite the busy crowd, the service was quick. Including driving time to and from the store, I was done within my 1 hour lunch break. This store has all kinds of other services, including mailbox rentals, prints, scans, copies, fax, money orders, mail services, mailing supplies, custom packaging, notary, keys, greeting cards, snacks, etc. There are plenty of parking spaces in the shopping center, with reserved spots specifically for this store.

I'm very kind hearted so I would go in get a package or two and give her $20 for extra thinking she deserved more. I did this without receiving packages at times just being kind. Had a package that was supposed to be delivered but when I arrived, no package. Gave her $20 upon leaving without picking up a package. Gave her extra at sign up for helping me. Just say I'm a giver I love helping people out even when they didn't deserve it. Moral of the story is I'd passed to her at least $80 more than I had to showing kindness. But this woman didn't turn down one cent and then had the audacity to charge me for extra packages not realizing it's a new month, fraudulently! After 4 extra packages she charges a fee. I didn't get 4 packages in the time frame she decided to charge me for after her greed has already had $80 more than she earned given to her from me, just showing support and being authentically kind. If I could get a refund I'd get the hell away from this kind of person in which is a greedy individual. KARMA don't care who you are. God knows my intentions and so does he know hers. I'd suggest to stay away from this place she appears nice but one of the greediest people I've ever seen. Can't wait till I don't have to use her services but be ware of undercover smiles that's nothing but a greedy individual just waiting to rip you off in some kind of way. STAY AWAY FROM HERE MY PEOPLE, she is crooked! ASF!! Lesson learned! However I HAVE DATES OF EVERY DELIVERY AND THERE IS NOT ONCE IVE BEEN OVERLIMIT. Some packages were small enough for the mailbox but to get over they don't see the inside of that box. I got receipts of her fraudulent charges because some packages were lost and she never received those but some how I got an overage when the delivery date shows what day and time delivered. I m looking into filing a complaint cos you don't cheat your customers. This is mail so I will do my research to see my next steps cos I don't appreciate getting ripped off cos I stopped giving money when packages started missing and your concern it wasn't your problem, WOW! lol
