A week before a much needed vacation, I realized my passport was over a year expired. One of the friends I was traveling with told me there are companies who can get your passport renewed in a day, so I immediately did a google search to find a company who could clean up the mess I created for myself. It was the end of the business day, I was sure I would not find a company to help me that night, but there was no way I could be at ease until I had confirmation I would be laying on white sand in a week. After a couple of failed attempts to reach a company who could help that day, I dialed the number for Passport Study Abroad and braced myself for the strong possibility they wouldn't pick up. But despite the fact their office hours were over in merely minutes, they were happy to help and put me at ease - they could get my passport renewed before my vacation without a problem. I dealt with Lindsey, who listened patiently while I frantically told her my situation. She told me exactly what she needed from me and gave me the info on how to get the forms I needed to send her. She didn't rush me off the phone or cut me off when I was rambling and freaking out the way I would expect most people to do at that time. After she told me the vitals, we actually had a friendly conversation which made me feel so comfortable and trusting that she would take care of everything. I filled out all of the forms by the morning and she wasted no time getting the process started. I had my passport with days to spare before my vacation, not to mention a peace of mind. While I don't recommend letting your passport expire right before vacation, if you do happen to make the same mistake as myself, take comfort in knowing Passport Study Abroad will make sure you will walk into the airport with a valid passport in your hand. read more
