First-time passport questions

[DanielQ]

What is the estimated timeline of passport application thought mail now? I called the passport services, I was told I can get a letter from my boss and saying he needs me to have a valid passport ASAP and they can make me receive the passport in 10 days.

Folks, I am applying for a canadian passport too. Regarding the guarantor, the person knows for a lot more than 2 years. But he has been a canadian citizen himself for less than a year. Is that an issue, or can he still be my guarantor?

Need some help. My citizen cert has my name revered due to error in last indian passport. My indian birth certificate has the name in the right order and so do my passports since birth (only last indian passport is wrong order). Long story short, now I see that canadian passport has option for name reversal and right now only my Cad license and indian birth cert. have my name in correct order (and some credit cards).
I want to submit my drivers license as proof of name in correct order and ofcourse my cit. cert. for cad passport... will this be an issue.
What are my next steps to getting SIN - Health card in the right order?... do I just give them a call?
will I have issues with Pension once this names are in the right order?
