when are you traveling? i know that they were allowing travel to mexico and canada w/o a passport if you had the receipt showing you have already applied for the passport. that exception might be ending oct 1.
yet ANOTHER passport question!

Unfortunately, that rule ends on the 1st of October and I leave on the 6th.
If you are using a TA or someone like Apple or Funjet, enlist their help.
Actually, I got my birth certificate several days after my passport, which had me a bit edgy.
