I will be renewing my U.S. passport in about one year because my present one will expire at that time, so I wanted to post this to get as much helpful feedback as I could before that time.
Here are some things I need to know:
1. Where is the U.S. Embassy and how do I get there? Do I need to go to anywhere else besides there?
2. Tips on mistakes to avoid in the process of applying for a renewed U.S. passport in the D.R. and tips on what I can do to speed up the passport application and arrival process.

3. How long does it take for the passport to arrive after the paperwork is submitted? I need as many U.S. people to respond to this question as possible.

4. Does the embassy notify you after it arrives? How do they notify you? Or, are you expected to check with them from time to time? How do I get my hands on the new passport?
5. Does the embassy personnel display U.S. standards of customer service or do they display D.R. standards of customer service?
6. I hope the "slip the money under the table" for better service expectations DO NOT exist in the U.S. embassy personnel as it exists in the personnel working in D.R. immigration.
7. Current cost and IS THERE AN EXPEDITED SERVICE?
Thanks for your help with this, Lee Stetson :classic:
