Impressed with processing times from Florida

I applied for two kids on two consecutive days April 29/30th. Both were received on May 5th. They were approved on May 13th and received today on May 18th. I did not use any sort of expedited processing so that was impressive for the New Orleans office. Just in case anyone else is wondering about what documents to show in case your kids’ birth certificate doesn’t match your current legal name, I used my current passport for my identification when applying and did not mail in any marriage certificates, while only one kid shares my current last name. My other kid is from previous marriage and my maiden name was listed on his birth certificate. I was worried that it would get held up with processing but it did not. I’m guessing using my passport that would’ve given them the access to show my former names possibly helped to avoid sending in marriage and divorce papers. Hope this helps!
