@carol888 : I fly almost every month... I don't expect any delays, I have Global Entry/TSA Pre-Check, so I just breeze thru the lines. I no longer have to take my shoes off and get my laptop out of my bag either.

@sandman : That's great! I will try not to fly next fall and of course no now either! Thanks to China

@BaBaLou : No, but I am thinking I had to take social or birth certificate last time and they didn't need it now. Just go check and see if they let it though. You are not charged until they okay you to get the renewal. I would gladly pay $25 to not have to go there but I want to know if it gets me years past what I was already due. I just did it to be able to fly in an emergency.

@ladybeachbum : Thanks for your reply and info. That's what I was finding out from other sources.

I haven't done mine yet. But I have a passport. My DL expires in July so I'll get it done then.
