New York Visa Office PR Passport processing timelines

[kool_Dude1980]

Hello
HAs anyone recently submitted their passports for PR Visa processing to the New York OFfice.
Im not in the US currently and would need to plan out of office accordingly as the NYVO website says a minimum of 30 days ? Is that true?
Can I get it processed quicker if I visit the consulate personally ?

Thanks
