I'm planning on going to London around Nov. 26th, but I need a passport. If I apply for one this week how long should it take if I don't get it expadited?

They claim they take 4-6 weeks from time of receipt.
3 weeks if you apply for expedited process.

I'd say go the expedited route. There were stories all over the news a few weeks ago about the backlog of getting passports. Spend the extra money to be sure you can take the trip! We got passports last year and I think it took 6 to 8 weeks.

If it's your first passport, it can take 10 to 12 weeks.

What country are you in? If you are in the US, good luck because the passport agency was so backed up from last summer when they required passports for any international travel. You may need to expedite it!

Depending on your paperwork, initial application or renewal it could take some time right now.
The Passport Services are overloaded with passport applications.
From 6am to midnight you can call the NPIC ( National Passport Information Center ) to check or ask a question. Please expect long waiting times.

up to 8 weeks, you can also pay an extra 100 dollars so you can get it within a few days

the passport process is taking quite some time because the regulations are changing.
i would start it now, and to be safe i would expedite it.
