Timeline Between ITA and Passport Request

[avian12]

Hi All,

I received my ITA today (Yoohoo!!).

I have all my documents ready to go (apart from FBI verification) which for which my card was charged today and I'm hoping to receive it in a weeks time. I should be able to submit my application before march however, I will be travelling to India (from the U.S) for a month.

Wondering if there is a reason for me not so submit my application prior to travel? Does anyone have average time for Passport request? I will not be able to submit my passport until I am back in the U.S.
Early April.

Don't worry, it is unlikely that your application is processed in just one month, plus when you receive PPR you still have an entire month to send your passport anyway.

Thanks! Exactly what I was looking to hear. I will submit my application prior to departure.
