passport- UPDATE!!!!!

So, in early June, DH and I went to go and do passport stuff.
DH had never had a passport so he needed to apply for one. I needed to update my last name and renew mine.
DH just got his back in the mail the other day and mine hasn't even been processed yet!!!!
DH may be traveling alone for our vacation.

ETA Update:
So I finally gave in and called the passport center to find out why my passport had not been processed yet.
Turns out they have processed it, but spelled my name wrong and TOTALLY butchered my Date of Birth. They had an extra 'a' in my last name instead of a 'd' which could have definitely been my fault since I often do not make the stem of my 'd' long enough to differentiate between 'd' and 'a'.
But my DOB they had me as being 3 years younger.
On top of that the lady told me that she can't actually change the information that she can only put in the request. She recommended that I call every other day until it's changed!
What a pain in the @$$

Call your congressperson to expedite it about a month before you need it if it hasn't arrived

Oh no!

When is your vacation?

I mailed mine out a few weeks ago to update my name and it came this weekend. I was really surprised since they say it takes so long.

The vacation isn't for another 2 months, but I just thought it was weird that DH got his and mine hasn't even been processed into their system.
It keeps saying please allow 7-10 days for processing.... OR 10 WEEKS!!!!!!

Funny how they were so quick to cash my check correctly, but they can't process my passport into their system

That is weird, especially since it's just a renewal and they cashed your check!!! And since your DH got his.

ETA: Is there a number you can call? I updated my name on mine and they cashed the check and it came about a week later. It was about 3 weeks in total.
