I cannot use my passport to travel to my home country. I can't see any regulations that preclude protected persons from travelling particularly to Middle East countries using their identity. You cannot travel to your country, you cannot renew your passport and you cannot enter the Consulate of your country in Canada with a purpose of getting any official documents

Yea if your passport was seized in Ottawa, most likely its there. But if you don't live in Ottawa, its always better to send an email to confirm, I believe.
They don’t send passports back for further announcement (maybe on august they will resume returning passports)
You should come there with pr (or COPR) and letter why do you need your passport back . Anyway, they either send you passport automatically or you will have to come to them. You can Aldo send a request via email (just google Etobicoke ircc email address)
Hi mimika how do you know that from August they starting to give us passport is that cic tell you

Hi! If your passport was seized in the Etobicoke office. You have to write a letter requesting the passport with your information and take the letter to the Canada Border Service office, address: 6900 airport road, Mississauga, ON. They will contact you in 2 days to give you the passport at the same office. Very easy.
Hello, I would like to share my experience on getting my passport back after I received PR approval.

You have to write a letter requesting the passport with your information and take the letter to the Canada Border Service office, address: 6900 airport road, Mississauga, ON. They will contact you in 2 days to give you the passport at the same office. I did all this in-person over a month ago. It was very easy.
This office is where they keep all the seized passports.

Hi , Have you done that recently ? Should I write the letter requesting to transfer or just request the passport?
Yes, I found this information on a Facebook group and I did it about one month ago. I went there in person, I didn't mail the letter. They called me the next day I dropped off the letter to arrange the pick-up. Once there, I signed some documents and they gave me my passport. I wrote the letter requesting my passport with my passport number and my personal details, I also mentioned that I've received my CoPR and added the number.
@Fpas When I went to this office in Airport road they said that if my passport was seized in Etobicoke, I have to get it from Etobicoke. As far as we all know, you would only get your passport from 6900 airport road if you started your refugee request in CBSA not CIC. Could you please confirm where did you file your refugee request? Etobicoke or CBSA? could you kindly confirm.
@mimika any thoughts?

I submitted my claim for Refugee at the Etobicoke office located in 5343 Dundas St West in December 2018. I went to the Border Office in Airport Road and they gave me my passport back. They never asked me where I applied for refugee. That was my experience one month ago. I highly suggest everyone who applied for refugee at the Etobicoke office and wants their passport back to go there, that is what I did.
