    Canadian Passport - Mail-In Application Timelines

    Called into the payment number a user had provided here. I got connected to the service agent in ~20 mins.

    My timeline is nearly identical to yours. I'm an Ontario applicant. Application recieved in Ottawa/Gatineau on March 23rd and CC charged on April 20th. Sent two status requests that weren't answered. Tried calling but the automated message says we have very high call volume and hangs up.
