Is it possible in DC area to renew child's US passport on a weekend?

[Anonymous]

Need to renew child's passport and it looks like all the "acceptance facilities" in my area (20010 zip) are all post offices and only process passports by appointment from 10 am-3 pm Monday-Friday. Very inconvenient as DH works in the suburbs, so he would miss half a day of work.

Any way around this that I'm missing?

Looks like Woodbridge has Sat hours

Also try Merrifield, they used to have Sunday walk in hours not sure if they still do

Be forewarned get there far in advance of opening time to get in line

Merrifield is open on Saturday mornings, no appointment necessary.

OP here, thanks, we live in DC so these place would be a long drive, but maybe our only option

We've gone to the main post office on Brentwood Rd. You'll have to wait because they don't make appointments, but it hasn't taken that long the two times we've done it.

Both parents don’t have to be there. You can get a notarized affidavit from the second parent.

This is what I did. They have a form your husband can sign with a notary. You can find a notary on the weekend or at some banks.

IIRC, the post office by the Westfield Montgomery Mall is an option

+1. We did this. Much easier than 2 parents having to show up.

Merriffield is a long drive? Take metro.
