This is way faster than I anticipated. I should have my passport in my hands in a couple of days.
I forgot to take the track number of the return envelope. Is there any other way to know it activated or not?

If it's Xpresspost and you have a receipt then may be Canada post office can help you. The same place from where you purchased. I guess, they keep track of all Xpressport tracking numbers in system which they sell. Just a guess.. :) Good luck

Application status changed to approved yesterday: March 20th
But I am yet to see my Canada post tracker activated.
Are you under CEC Stream? If yes, did you use CanadaPost Xpress?
Yes to both questions.

Okay, thanks for responding to my questions.
Did you complete the "to" - address part of your return envelope?
No, you are supposed to leave the return envelope untouched.

I did however forget to write my name and date of birth on any of the photos. That didn't seem to matter.

I wrote my address on the "to" part of the address, i hope this won't cause any delay.
I did not write my name or DOB on the back of my passport as well since there was no instruction for that.

Hey guys, just to confirm. You get two Express post envelopes (one big and one small sized) and you put your passport, Annex A, photos and the small envelope in the big one and fill in the 'To' and 'From' sections but you do not fill your address on the smaller return envelope, correct?

Yes. They print out your address and stuck it in the "TO" section.

Hi,

What if you mistakenly wrote your address on the "TO" section? Do you know what will happen?
