Today (10/20/2025) we applied for our child’s passport here. The entire staff was very polite and friendly. Thank you so much for helping us and accepting our documents. Everything was quick and smooth, without any unnecessary questions.

I got my passport done here on Tuesday. Audrey (I believe was her name) was extremely helpful and patient. She made the passport experience easy and pleasant. This was definitely one of my better experiences at USPS. Would recommend this location if you are looking to renew/reapply for a passport.

Post card never arrived. Maybe the lady is single and bitter.
