Hi
Hi guys. I`ve recently landed as a permanent resident and I`m applying for a travel document, as I probably won`t receive my PR card in time to travel. I want to apply from inside Canada, as I`ll only be away for a week and probably wont have a chance to go to the visa office abroad and ask for it there.
Does anyone have an experience with this? I`ve been told it is possible to do within Canada (by the call centre of CIC), but the website only mentions applying for it from abroad, and the application form is set that way as well, so I`m quite confused.
Do you know how long it could take for them to issue the document?
Thanks a million.

You have to apply for it at an overseas office. Note the instructions on the application kit
"This application must be submitted to the responsible Canadian visa office."
You would have to check the web site of the issuing office.
