I finally received my passport today. Here's the timeline:
1. BLS passport submission - Aug 19, 2025
2. Passport sent to the CGI Toronto - Aug 19, 2025
3. Processing started at CGI Toronto - Aug 29, 2025
4. PV initiated - Aug 29, 2025
5. Approved and Submitted as Clear by Police - Sep 12, 2025
6. Print Initiated - Sep 12, 2025
7. Printed - Sept 16, 2025
8. In Transit from Consulate General to BLS Centre - Sept 18, 2025
9. Dispatched by courier - Sep 19, 2025
10. Passport delivered by Purolator - Sept 22, 2025
For those who are unaware, passport application submitted in Toronto is printed locally by CGI Toronto after PV is received clear. So after printing it takes just 2 days to dispatch to BLS.
Thanks to the folks who responded to my queries on this forum.
