From the very beginning Alan said he could not help. Well that was honest. Nice! Since the passport was already in process, we had to stick with the process and could not start over with Alan. With that said, Alan stayed with us for 20 minutes and walked us throug the process of what we could do next. And that insight was not getting to us any other way. It turns out we don't have anything to buy from EEP at the moment, but hope someone else does, and we recommend that you do. read less - 03/06/19

After frantically Googling and Yelping on the hunt for a reputable, cost effective, and well reviewed place I landed on Emergency Expedited Passports.
Their office is a small suite in a larger building. They set you up, charge as fair a possible and take as many photos as you want until you land on a modelesque one. I got my passport back earlier than they quoted and had 0 issues.

From my very first phone call to ask about the process, Tanya was absolutely delightful and so willing to help and answer any questions. She explained all my options for renewing my passport and even got there early on a very rainy Saturday morning to take care of everything. She also took a pretty darn good looking passport photo which is a massive accomplishment in itself. After filling out the application online, she emailed me when all the paperwork was sent to the agency for processing. Within a week, I received a call that both my passport book and passport card were ready! One of the most seamless procedures, given how daunting it seemed to do it alone. The owner Alan is also fantastic and everyone at Emergency Expedited Passports truly cares about their customers and doing things right. You are in very good hands here.

I came in looking for an emergency passport renewal for a work trip that I had in two weeks. I was so panicked that I wouldn’t be able to travel. I frantically walked into the office on a Saturday (after the hours even) and purchased the 3-5 business day passport renewal option. Allan walked me through all the paperwork, took my passport photo on the spot, and on Monday I had already received in email that the passport was being processed. By Wednesday (the third business day!) Allan had the passport ready. It didn’t even take the full 5 days! I am beyond thankful for this group and their incredible service. A true life saver in a pinch, and the nicest person ever. THANK You Allan for making this such a stress free, and easily handled experience.
