So I called IRCC for an update .

In May when I called they said they will contact the Scarborough office for an update . When I called back in June , they said the office didn’t respond and they will re-send a msg .

So I called again today . No response from office . Agent agreed this is strange and said she will send an “emergency message “ , whatever that is .

I asked what are my options . Nothing really . She said if I send a web form they can direct it to Scarborough. I already submitted one this week and the third since this dilemma .

And I am going to go my mp office Tuesday to have them contact for me .

In my case the file was transferred from Mississauga to Scarborough and it took more than 2 months for Scarborough to receive it. All this time the status IRCC agents could see was “IN TRANSIT”. Again this was NOT normal, and stressful for me as it was not normal. Normally when the transfer happens the file is received at the other office the same day, but that was not the case for me. Now I have learned that anything is possible with IRCC. So I would say don’t worry. At least the office has your file. Lately many of us (May applicants) have heard back and hope you should hear back too.

A minor let-down is that the Canada passport I received is so cheaply made. My old passport (from a Third-World country!) has faux-leather covers and heavy-weight, partially cotton papers. It just feels substantial in hand.

Meanwhile, the Canadian passport has thin, plastic covers and cheap pulp-based papers. This won't age well and the cheap papers will be very sensitive to moisture. A brief exposure to rain could necessitate applying for a new passport. :confused:
IN HOW MANY DAYS U GOT THE CANADIAN PASSPORT AFTER APPLYING IT

Yes anything is really possible with them . I made contact with my mp office today but the lady who deals with these matters isn’t in till tomorrow . Hopefully once they reach out Scarborough office will finally respond . Yes definitely a stressful process but sucks when there is nothing else u can do .. hope you guys get your paths quickly after !

Some of the online tests are so tough. I cannot imagine i have to remember names of people and what they did 100s of years ago in order to pass the test :(
