I obtained a passport right off the bat when I entered the Hobby nearly 10 years ago, hoping to be a lucky lassie, and I have been! (Hmm, that reminds me that I had best look into renewing.)

It's an expensive pita if you need a rush order at the downtown office. i honestly had no choice and would explain why offline.
Also remember....each country you might visit has a minimum remaining validity duration. (my words). So if a country requires one year remaining, a 9 year old passport won't get you in.
most require six months...some 90 days.
with some asterisks, i got into one that required a year with a passport that had less than six months.
oh...if you want to know the secrets to getting a GREAT passport photos, message me.
