Thanks for the US based timeline! Did you receive the new or old version? If new, may I ask if issuing authority was Gatineau or Ottawa?

Hello Guys, my oath done and have citizenship certificate didn't apply for passport yet..came USA for 2 weeks can I come back Canada by road using citizenship certificate/co pr?

yes, you can. I did that too.

only question asked by CBSA officer was - is the certificate photoshopped or real? I laughed and said real.

I used e-certificate.

If you haven't found out yet, you can use the passport status tracker here: https://etatpasseport-passportstatus.service.canada.ca/en/expectations
Follow instructions on the site to get your file number, and then use it to track your passport status.

Bonus tip: if you do not have a given name, type-in 'XXX' in the Given Name field.

How did you track that they sent your passport on June 27th ?
Did this status show up in the application tracker?
Also, did you receive the passport via USPS or any courier service?

Hi All! Would anyone know if the online status website updates only at a certain time of the day? Thank you!

Applied for Canadian passport by mail to the main courier address in Ottawa - sent from Toronto.

App delivered - Aug 18
Status showing 'received and processing...' - Between Aug 23 - Aug 28
Credit Card Charged - Aug 28
Status changed BACK to 'We can't give you the application status right now' - Aug 28

Has anyone seen this before? No contact via phone or email regarding incomplete application or anything like that, so just curious if this has happened to anyone else before? New citizen applying shortly after oath with e-certificate as proof of citizenship.
