Local Notes for Phoenix / Tucson — Not a State Department Schedule

✓Phoenix post offices and Maricopa County clerk offices are Routine Acceptance Facilities (2–6 week mail-in only)—they cannot print a passport on the spot. Drive to Tucson (7373 E Rosewood St) for 14-day urgent printing.
✓Remember that Arizona stays on Mountain Standard Time (MST) year-round; double-check your appointment time against Pacific or Mountain Daylight Time in summer.
✓Free visitor parking is right outside the Tucson facility entrance.
