Best Answer

The best time to apply for a US passport is well before the time you need it for your travel. This is because you would want to give enought time for the processing if you are looking to apply for it with standard process. For standard processing it takes about 4 to 6 weeks of processing. This will also depend on the amount of paper work and if everything checks out smoothly during the processing. Of course, if you are in a hurry you would want to apply for an expedited service or rush service so that you can get your passport a lot faster but with a lot more fees at that.
