Passport is needed for all air travel and only birth cert. is needed by land or sea - canges July of next year so get it now as the agencies will be swamped next July when the law changes.

You can pay for expidited service - just google the many companies.

Dont let it go to the Washington DC as they suck ! Boston turned mine around in 1 week after I gave up on 6 months of run around in Washington.

No substitutes - the airline wont let you board w/o it !

To travel to Mexico right now... driving, all you need is your birth certificate and a an ID or Driver's License.

To travel to Mexico right now... flying, all you need is your passport.

For me, to get my passport it took 3 months... and this was last year.  I am pretty sure it takes about the same or a bit longer now.

The only other substitute just for a 3 day get away is driving to Mexico... as long as you have your birth certificate & a picture ID or Drivers License.  It's easy and fast to get your birth certificate.
