For those that have renewed their RTD with PR card, what's the appropriate to fill in the column SECTION 3: Proof of Immigration Status in Canada as the Document Number when option PR card is chosen? I have seen different opinion from people stating it is the UCI #,CoPR #, and the Alphanumeric at the back of PR card, so I'm kind of confused a little bit.

Me and my husband went there today & got the same response that my husband's passport is not there & the lady at the reception gave us the contact number which is just an automated message. Can you share any further information regarding how to get the passport back & whom should we contact? Thanks
i just called the number that the lady gave me,i talked to an agent, and she told me that i need to write a letter and send it to the hamilton office, explaining that i am on PR and they didn't return my passport yet. however i didn't have the time to mail the letter, but im going to mail it this week.

Usually you go to the same office where you submitted your claim (CIC if you submitted inside Canada or CBSA airport office if you submitted it at the POE). Even if you go the wrong office they will tell you where is your passport
Yes if it is at another office they will
Arrange to get it from them. As long as it is another cbsa not ircc. If it is another ircc then you have to contact ircc urself

I also talked to an agent today & he told me that we need to wait for the PR card to arrive & we cannot send the written request on the basis of COPR. I don't know how long it will take for the PR card to arrive but I had never heard of such rule before.

Of course yes, because CBSA is giving passport back if someone is eligible, its very simple way, just go to Airport Road, fill a form and wait for a call from them and get your passport in a very well mannered way....!!

I wrote a mail through web form on IRCC asking where was my passport. After two weeks, they responded to me. They told me it was supposed to get it when I receive my PR card, but if I wanted it before, I will have to contact the office that had my passport. In my case, they told me that my passport was on 6900 Airport road. I went directly to that office and brought the CopR document, driver's license and a formal letter that said: I would like to get my passport back because I already got a permanent residence. I did not give any explanation, but it is up to you to write the reason you want it back.

They accepted my letter without a problem. Two days after they called me to pick up my passport. I went there, waited for a while, signed a form they gave me and that is all. I got my passport back. There were no questions nor issues with that requeriment.
@Zainab when did you write this letter? I need to get my passport back too but in my last letter they said they will communicate on how I can get my passport back but it’s been a month now haven’t heard from them.
