What are the current summary statistics for the length of time taken for the passport office to issue expedited and non-expedited first-time applications. By summary statistics I am also referring to those parameters that describe the statistical distribution of the data. For example, it might take an average of 3 months to issue a passport, but the added data that 95% of passports are issued in 4 months speaks to the distribution of the data.
