Yes ladies and gentleman! It is advisable that if you are an american citizen please obtain your passport while the time is slow. Turn around after applying lately has been 2 weeks versus when I had to get mine done a few years ago- it took a month! whew! But the benefits of it are priceless. It allows access to anywhere in the world and it lasts for up to 10 years! Before showing up at your local post office you must have on you a valid photo i.d. AND a valid birth certificate with a state seal on it. You can easily obtain this by contacting your state of natural birth records division, and requesting this information via mail. Enclose with your request a self addressed envelope with a check or money order for the fee and voila! You should be good to go.
Although there is another delay in *when* to have this requirement, it is not a good idea to wait for the last minute to apply, especially if you have planned a vacation out of country. Take advantage now!

Happy travels!
