Question for those of you with the experience:

I'm a USA -> Canada applicant and about a month ago I got my passport request letter (if that's still what you call it; US applicants only have to send photocopies). I sent the documents over and they arrived on September 20th at CPCO's PO Box, and were signed for. Haven't heard a peep since then and the tracking number for the return envelope has yet to be activated. I'm wondering if I should be concerned and consider contacting them since it's taken this long (I've read that it usually takes around 10 business days and I've exceeded that already). Any advice?

Thanks in advance.
So update on this. I did contact them using the web form the day I wrote my original post. Unfortunately I received a reply today and it was not good news.

We verified the information on file and can confirm that your passport was not received by the responsible office yet.

If you would like to send them to us again, we invite you to:

  • Fill out the IRCC Web form and include your documents. It will be our pleasure to forward them to the office processing your file, or
  • Send them by mail to the responsible office.
If additional information is required during the process of your application, the responsible office may contact you.

We hope the information provided is helpful in assisting you with your enquiry.

Disappointed, as I followed all their instructions exactly. I took a photo of the filled-out address before we sent it, and that was exactly correct too. Plus the envelope was signed for so I know it was delivered to the right place. Frustrating! What's more is that I'm not even sure the IRCC agent correctly understood what I was asking based on the language he used ("passport was not received" instead of "photocopy of passport" plus advising me to submit the documents electronically when that's impossible in this specific case), but I have no choice but to take him at his word since you can't reply to these messages.

Will now have to retake my photos, get another Passport photocopy and send out another package over the weekend. I was so happy to be almost done with all this too.

If you're from a country that is Visa-exempt, they only need a copy of the photo page of your passport. If you require a visa to travel to Canada, you have to send your actual passport
