    Canadian Passport - Mail-In Application Timelines

    I think you should be able to fax them a copy of your DL again with your guarantor's signature on it. Just not sure when you should/would do that. Depending on when your application was sent, I recommend waiting for a few weeks for the CC to be charged. If not, try calling and hopefully the...

    Canadian Passport - Mail-In Application Timelines

    You have a point. I was connected to Passport folks in an hour and 15 or so. Which is still a steal compared to trying to reach CRA or something lol. Especially during child benefit payments. Easily 2+ hours on a good day :p

    Agreed. And kids born here send their birth certificates which is one of the most important identity documents. My friend's child's certificate made it to Winnipeg no problem. But seems like the street number and/or the postal code were hard to interpret. So it was somewhere in Winnipeg's no...

    I second that man. Sure. CC was charged March 2, 2022 Passport was issued March 3, 2022 When I called them on March 3, they only gave me the tracking # for the citizenship certificate and said that the passport was sent for processing or something and no tracking # is available. When I called...

    Hi there. Same with me. Application sent to Gatineau but CC charge was of North York. My passport and citizenship certificate were mailed from North York as well. (I live in the Prairies) I was told that if the workload at Gatineau is high, they transfer some files to other offices to share the...

    Canadian Passport - Mail-In Application Timelines

    you don't have to. The passport and your citizenship cert get returned in 2 separate packages (usually) but the Government pays for the post. Please refer to the checklist that's included in the application package. It explains everything that you need. Careful with the photographs. Make sure...

    Canadian Passport - Mail-In Application Timelines

    Thanks @Naush4 The Canada Post mailman rang my doorbell and handed me my 2 envelopes. One was a bigger envelope (with the certificate and a credit card receipt) and the other was a smaller one with the passport. The mail carrier did not obtain my signature

    Hi there. No I did not include any pre paid return envelopes. I'd think the $160 they charge covers for an Xpresspost envelope :p Good luck!

    Unfortunately doesn't look like it would happen in my case. Hopefully you get both of them together. The lady clearly stated that the certificate will go out before the passport. I called at around 2 PM CST and had to wait around an hour and 20 minutes. 330 or so callers ahead of me. Ensure to...

    Something to add for me. This morning at about 7:30 AM CST my CC was charged for $160 under "Passport/Passeport, North York, ON" :) Although I havent been able to contact them yet (over the phone) I think sending that webform a few days ago helped.

    Canadian Passport - Mail-In Application Timelines

    Right. Makes sense. I mean I hope they're only delaying my application because they're focusing on people who need it urgently. I am fine with that. But at some point, I obviously wanna know what's going on with it haha. I'll try again early morning like CaBeaver said. I tried calling through 2...
