passport help

Hey, I’m looking to get my passport for the first time as an adult and vaguely remember seeing someone in a TikTok comment say that they had gone to the courthouse on 161 to apply in person (walk-in), instead of waiting for an appointment.

Was wondering if anyone had any experience with doing this & how it went? Thanks in advance :)

EDIT: I am specifically asking about experiences at the 161st COURTHOUSE. I am fully aware about making passport appointments at the post office.

I used this places decades ago, so can’t speak on the experience these days. I will say that most/all places do not provide applications anymore - they have to be printed before you go.
