They claim that generally U.S. passport offices take a relatively long time to provide a passport, and they mention two weeks as an example. Actually, the U.S. government offices in many locations provide same-day passports for those who are traveling that afternoon or evening, or the next day. I have used that service! The service and reliability in the government's Manhattan office is excellent, and of course the cost is far less than using any of the private companies for the same service.
