A north suburban woman has been waiting for months to get her renewed passport, and now may miss out on a trip of a lifetime.
The U.S. State Department said travel overseas has traveled post-pandemic, and it can take at least three months to process passport applications.
"I have been looking forward to this for years to be able to do this, and do this with my daughters," she said. "We will issue more passports this year than in any previous year," said Secretary of State Anthony Blinken on Monday. "But that's just a reflection of the fact that demand is higher than it's ever been. And we're throwing everything we can at this to try to make sure that people have those blue books."
