Answer 2

I dont think you can fly to Guatemala with your expired passport.

Answer 3

If your US passport expired within the past year, you can get it renewed by mail.  Request expedited service and send in the application, expired passport, etc. via Federal Express.  If everything is in order, you can get your new passport in as little as 2 weeks.  Costs a great deal extra for expedited processing ($125, if it has not changed since a year ago), plus FedEx each way (@$25 each way), in addition to passport fees.  Fastest way to get your renewal passport.

Answer 4

Yes, you can your passport expedited.  Private services do it and it will cost you a pretty penny.

I actually lost mine when I was on a break from living in Guatemala and I got a new one issued within a week and had no problems with re entry into Guatemala.

Answer 5

You can get into Mexico without a passport.  They just won't let you back into the U.S. without a valid one.

Answer 6

"DOCAR" gave you the BEST answer.  Call the Chicago Regional Passport Agency and make an appointment and you can go get your new passport the same day...and there is no extra fee.
