Can someone please tell what to do, its been 8 days since my passport got delivered to them, for tourist visa, the return tracking has still not been activated. The online status shows approved and the counterfoil number was also displayed 2 days back. I am in Miami so cannot call the number as its only within Canada. Below is my timeline:

Online Application Date from Miami, FL - 14th November
Approved and Passport Request Date - 20th November
Passport Delivery date by FedEx to Ottawa Location - 22nd November
Counterfoil number shown online 28th November.

Trackint still not activated and no message from them.
Have you received tracking number??

Thanks for the update. I just called Fedex. I mention to the girl my passport was ready yesterday as emailed received from CIC and i didnt see my tracker activated . she said she will schedule a pick up tomorrow for me sometimes they have to do that. I hope this help and the package is ready when they arrived.

Hi any news on your passport
I got my passport on 17th Jan. But in future I am not going to relay on Canada Post. Passport need to reach Toronto, ON but first they send it to Richmond, BC. Then I called them and followed up with them around 5 to 6 times then they delivered it. Went through very painful phase.
