Follow up - even though I submitted my wife's application ten minutes after mine on 2/27/25, her new passport arrived Saturday but not mine, by now six days ago (for us, just like the old days of Covid when approvals from nasal swab test results from CVS were received days apart and perilously close to flying dates despite us simultaneous dropping the test swab tubes in the drawer). But, having requested the automatic updates in the system I received the email last night mine was approved and was being printed. Then today another email from the US Department of State, notifying today the second new passport was sent by USPS Express Mail (tracking number provided) and though routine service could take 4-6 week I should receive it on or around 3/30/2025.
Thank God for small wonders.
