Ladysilver Posted April 10, 2014 #1 Share Posted April 10, 2014 We recently applied and received our passports in just 3 1/2 weeks. How long does it take to get our birth certificates back now? It's been 1 week.....:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClevelandRocks! Posted April 10, 2014 #2 Share Posted April 10, 2014 We got our passports on 3/28/14. Our birth certificates came in the mail on 4/4, so one week later. They are sent in plain, brown envelopes, not express envelopes as were used for the passports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigginout66 Posted April 10, 2014 #3 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Applied for passports for 4/27 cruise on 3/26 (king of procrastination) with the expedited processing. Passports received on 4/5 and birth certs arrived yesterday 4/9. As the previous poster stated, BC's come in plan brown envelope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raenstoirm Posted April 10, 2014 #4 Share Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) Ours came back in the same envelope with the passports. It was a few years ago though, so the policy probably changed. (Sorry, not helpful. :)) Edited April 10, 2014 by Raenstoirm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sorry, not helpful. :)) Same with us. Also a few years ago. The old policy would seem to be easier and cheaper for them I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macbeth09 Posted April 10, 2014 #6 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Received new passports for my sons last month. All three of their birth certificates arrived about a week later in separate envelopes. I'd wait another week and then start calling someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunkissed Mommy Posted April 10, 2014 #7 Share Posted April 10, 2014 We recently applied and received our passports in just 3 1/2 weeks. How long does it take to get our birth certificates back now? It's been 1 week.....:confused: I applied for my son's passport (he was 9 months at the time). We sent in the paperwork a week before the gov't shut down in the fall of 2013. We got his passport back within 2 weeks of applying and we never received his birth certificate back. Not sure if I should blame the post office or them! Thankfully I had planned in advance, knowing we're frequent travelers I requested 4 birth certificates when he was born. It's a good thing!
