WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The average age at which U.S. retirees report retiring is 62, the highest Gallup has found since first asking Americans this question in 1991. This age has increased in recent years, while the average age at which non-retired Americans expect to retire, 66, has largely stayed the same.
there have been times in the past when it could take up to 12 weeks or more to get a passport more recently the processing time has been 4 6 weeks for routine service when demand is low this can drop down to only 3 4 weeks
See site below for all application info. When you have everything ready take it to the nearest post office to submit. It takes 4 to 6 weeks to get your passport. If you need it sooner, you can pay $60 extra to have it expedited...plus the express mail fees...and it will take 2 to 3 weeks. Source(s): http://travel.state.gov/passport/passpor...
