How quickly can you renew an expired foreign passport?
My passport expired in March, and I only just remembered about my vacation in August. Is it actually possible to get it redone at the MFC in a couple of months or are the lines crazy?

Usually it takes about a month if you're not in a hurry, so you'll definitely have time in two months - the main thing is to submit your application right now, don't put it off. Yeah, there are lines at the MFC, but if you sign up online in advance, you'll get through way faster than if you just show up with a piece of paper.
You'll definitely have time in two months, I'd even say with time to spare. The main thing is don't put it off - submit your documents in the next few days, because unexpected situations do happen. I actually saw this at school, where parents almost ruined a class trip because one passport got delayed for a photo retake. If you register online through the government services portal, you'll skip the lines - it's a tried and tested method, I recommend doing it that way.
You'll definitely make it in two months if you submit your documents tomorrow. I heard that at the MFC they usually process things in three to four weeks, a month max. The main thing is don't put it off, because there really can be some delays, and August is already coming up. Online booking definitely helps you avoid long lines.
