Passport timeline to US

[amairead]

For those who recently applied from the US, how long did it take for you to receive your passport and documents once they were shipped from Ireland? I'm concerned because mine were mailed November 27th, and AN Post shows it being received that day in Dublin and leaving Dublin a few hours later but nothing since. In contrast, my passport card shows arriving AN Post December in Dublin December 5, leaving Dublin a few hours later and arriving in US a few hours after that. Obviously it didn't arrive in the US the same day, but there has been no movement on the passport book since November 27th. Any ideas? Thanks!

@amairead , please don't post questions in the timeline thread. Search it yourself there - that's what timelines are for.

Normally after your package departs from An post Dublin processing center it will take a day or couple of days to clear irish customs then mostly a within a week to reach clear USA customs then handed over to USPS i believe. After it arrives with USPS you might receive a delivery notification. An post service ends at Irish customs. There is a change over.
