    I need to get my passport renewed and I want some heads up from anyone who has applied recently. How soon do you get your passport if applied normally? Its online through Passport Seva Kendras now. I am hearing mixed reports from others, some say that the passport is getting delayed by more than 3 months, but some agents say that we will get the passport within 10 days.
    If tatkal, they say that we will receive the passport soon within 3 days.

    Hi teju,
    My hubby applied for passport renewal before 6 months thro tatkal and we received it within 1 week. But applying a renewal passport is very tedious since we have get signatures from a local DSP and we have to summit the form in seva kendra. We nearly worked for it for 2 months for getting a sign from DSP office.

    I got New PP some 3 months back..
    I applied Online, and have been given a date for appearing in person after 30 days of online registration.
    I have completed all the formalities and was present at the PP office on time and I was called in
    After verification of certificates with originals, I was asked to by way of DD, which i kept ready with the application.
    I received passport 21 days thereafter.

    [please note.. as I was in government service, I could get NOC in my office, which should be attached with application]
    Regards
