Harry Hays Building

The Passport office opens at 8:30am. We arrived at 8am and there was already a line up of about 20 people. There are two lines. One for Passport pickups and one for Passports. The gentleman asked us what we were in for and if we had all the proper documentations.nnIf you are picking up your Passport he will give you a post it note and have you line up to the right of the door. The longer line on the left is for new and renewals of Passports.nnHe would ask if you were here for 1 or 2 Passports, and direct you letting you know which counter to go to.nnWe were done by 8:35am. So, just a bit over half an hour. When we got out, there was no line up at all. We parked out on the street, as it is free parking until 9am.

PASSPORT RENEWAL - great experience, great people. Showed up at 7:45am on a Thursday morning, parked on 3rd Ave, street parking is free until 8:30 or 9.nGo in the main entrance and you'll see the passport office on the righthand side. There was about 20 people ahead of me when I arrived. They open the doors at 8am despite hours being listed as 8:30. I was done and walking out the door at 8:20. Just ensure you come with the application already filled out and pictures ready.nNote: for passport pickup, line up to the right of the passport office doors. They open at 8:30am

I went to the Harry Hays building today to apply for my first passport. I arrived at 7:45 and there were only about 10 people in line. When the doors opened at 8 I was sent to a counter right away. I left at 8:15am after completing the appointment. The lady at the counter was very friendly and helpful. I had a great experience here!

This place is usually busy and packed and moves with slow pace so prepare your visit accordingly.nnParking is on street.nnServices are good - New Passport, Renewal, Pickups etc.

Came in the building around 6:20am and there were already about 10 people a head of me. They let people inside the room at 8:30am, segregated people who are coming for urgent & express pass, normal pass, & pickups. Most of the staffs were nice & organized.nnI applied for express passport since I only have 9 days before my flight. But pickup time is longer. They want me to pick my passport 2 days before my flight. Just hoping there’s no misspelling or anything i left the building around 9:30am, so that’s still about 3 hrs wait time in the morning.
