American citizens that live in Florida have three options when it comes to obtaining a new U.S. Passport. They can apply at a local passport application acceptance facility, a regional division or a professional expediting service. The location you select will depend on a few factors. Let's look closer at each option.
Florida Passport Offices

The first option, which takes the longest whole of time to process, is to apply at a Florida passport application acceptance facility. These facilities are most often settled in local post offices but they can sometimes be found in public libraries or county clerk's offices.
Residents of Florida will find at least one passport office in each of the following counties: Alachua, Baker, Bay, Bradford, Brevard, Broward, Calhoun, Charlotte, Citrus, Clay, Collier, Columbia, Dade, De Soto, Dixie, Duval, Escambia, Flagler, Franklin, Gadsden, Gulf, Hamilton, Hardee, Hendry, Hernando, Highlands, Hillsborough, Holmes, Indian River, Jackson, Jefferson, Lafayette, Lake, Lee, Leon, Levy, Liberty, Madison, Manatee, Marion, Martin, Monroe, Nassau, Okaloosa, Okeechobee, Orange, Osceola, Palm Beach, Pasco, Pinellas, Polk, Putnam, Saint Johns, Saint Lucie, Santa Rosa, Sarasota, Seminole, Sumter, Suwannee, Taylor, Volusia, Wakulla, Walton, Washington.
There are a few counties that do not have a passport application acceptance facility. In this case, you need to look in neighboring counties. Dade County has the largest whole of passport offices with at least forty-two. The state capital has three locations. Here is the address of a consolidate of these.

Routine processing takes four to six weeks. Expedited service will get your application processed in two to three weeks. If you need to get your passport faster, then you will have to select an alternative method.
Miami Passport Agency
Another location where Florida residents can apply for a new passport is the Miami Passport Agency. This regional division attends American citizens who need to get their trip document in two weeks or less. Regional agencies process same day passports. The address is given below.
Omni Center
1501 Biscayne Boulevard
Suite 210
Miami, Fl 3313
The first step to applying for expedited passport service at the Miami division is to set up an appointment. You do this by calling 1-877-487-2778. While peak trip seasons, the line can become congested. It may take some attempts before you are able to schedule your appointment.
The regional division is open from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm, Monday through Friday except for national holidays. They are not open on weekends.
You are encouraged to arrive a microscopic early since you have to pass through the safety check. You will then be directed to the appropriate room where you will take a whole and wait to be called. When your whole is shown, you direct yourself to the appropriate desk and submit the application form and supporting documents to the passport agent.
If all your documents are all accepted, you will be asked to return later to receive your passport. This will very likely be the same day. Problems with your documents can delay the process. To avoid this, it is prominent that you verify all the requirements and ensue them carefully.
Professional Passport Expediting Services
Florida residents, who must get a passport quickly but cannot personally visit the Miami agency, can still obtain a passport in a hurry by applying through a professional expediter. Expediters are registered with regional agencies for the purpose of submitting applications for American citizens who cannot do it themselves.
While there are some expediting services that control in Miami, it is good to select one that has offices in other locations as well. The suspect is that the regional passport agencies limit the whole of same day passports that each expediter can request at each agency. Expediters that control through some agencies can submit a larger volume of same day passport applications.
Expediters have been colse to for decades and are a great resource when you are in a bind and run the risk of having to cancel your trip.
