I sent my passport on October 31st and Ottawa received it on November 6th . It got approved on November 14th and I still haven't received it yet.

I called them and they said they haven't sent it yet, its only just gone for printing!

I applied within Canada and I have a flight to catch on the 18th!

Good luck to all of us!

Hang in there guys! The past month has been torture for me just waiting and waiting being full of anxiety. One thing that helped me is.....I asked the customer care agent if she would be willing to email CPP Ottawa on my behalf and tell them about my pre-booked flight. I explained to her that even though I do not have a medical emergency, I have a ticket already booked that my family purchased for me and I do not want to incur costs. Then I called back the following day, as she had asked me to call back and ask for an update on my file. The next customer agent told me they must have seen the email as I was approved literally that same day, within 24 hrs. I think that helped speed up my process. Here is my timeline:

Date of Application: October 27th
Passport Request: November 3rd
Passport Sent to CPC-Ottawa: November 10th
Passport Received at CPC-Ottawa: November 14th
Visa Approved: November 29th
Tracker Activated: December 6th
Visa Received: Waiting....

Hey Cammy! We have the exact same time intervals.
I was wondering what time your tracker was activated.
Thanks!

it looks like it takes about 3 weeks from sending the passport to get the track activated
If you pre-paid express it will arrive maximum in 2 days
