Yes you are right, the holiday of Eid Al Fitr in Oman is one week from the 24th of June till the 1st of July, work will resume on the 2nd. Most probably you will get it after eid holidays. Sorry to hear this bro, hopefully they will contact you this week if you are lucky to get your passport back.
Although, if you sent your passport through VFS then you can track it online. Did you try this option to know where your passport is currently ?

Did CIC require you to resign to show intent to return to Canada? Usually this is for sponsors (Canadians) living outside Canada but I think they have been pressuring others to do the same - I'm not sure...anyways, perhaps you could send them a case specific enquiry explaining that you have resigned and your residence is cancelled, giving you 30 days to leave the country.

Perhaps for others benefit, you can try to negotiate with your employer to extend your residence sponsorship even after your last day of work (most companies don't have an issue with a 1 or 2 month extension.)....or unless CIC requires you to show proof of returning to Canada, wait to give the resignation.

I pray your passport will come soon! Please keep us updated. I think my husband's passport took almost 2 months as well...

No...he did not have to repeat the medical but his application was processed in under 12 months. The visa expiry was basically around the same day his medicals would have expired.
