Which post offices have Saturday hours? We are in DC.

And can I go without my child? If I can do that, I can make an appointment and go on my lunch break.

Check the Tenleytown P.O. on Wisconsin.

State's website says they don't have Saturday hours. Do you have info otherwise? Should I call them to ask?

The state department passport office and the U.S. Postal Service are two different things. Agree with PP, carefully read the link above, you'll save everyone time.

I'm aware that the US Department of State and the US Postal Service are not the same thing.

Are you telling me that you have affirmative knowledge that the listing on State's website, which says that the Tenleytown Post Office is only open for passport matters, by appointment, M-F 10-3, is not correct?

That is the key piece of information that I need.

For goodness sake, call that office and ask them. It's a lot faster than posting here multiple times.

Again, the Saturday hours are seasonal. The busy season has passed so the State Dept. likely will not have Saturday hours now. I suggested going to the post office in Tenleytown to see if the passport window is open on Saturday. The post office is definitely open on Saturday but I can't confirm that the passport window is open.

You also need your child's father or a notarized form. It's been a few years but I had to take my kids last time I renewed.

Thank you, you are so helpful. (It's Sunday. They are closed. If you don't have something helpful to say, you don't have to reply.)

I just went through this too! The passport website only lists Monday through Friday hours. But the USPS website does list Saturday hours.

Here was my post from a few weeks ago:

Yeah, and not a very smart one since she can't figure out how to use the USPS website to find a particular office's hours or even wait until Monday morning to call and ask...
