Interesting! So there really is no need to call them to get tracking information. The status request online is enough. Thanks for this info!

Great! Congrats to you. Nothing as yet for me. I wonder what's going on. Tried sending status request but no response. Calling is absurd as there are always millions of people queued up ahead of me.

Congrats. They seem to have changed things by sending tracking numbers with update emails. Did they call the guarantor/references?

Its ok, just wait and relax. If you sent a webform request, they will contact you. I sent on 24 Feb and got response on 3rd March.
I did apply via mail-in. However, the day before yesterday I went to Service Canada office in my city for another purpose, I saw some people just walked in (without appointment). The security guy just asked if they wanted to wait until they have a spare lot (after they clear off those with appointment). Some waited and were accepted after 1-2 hours. It could vary from each Service Canada office.
hi All,
has in person appointments started now for passport, given the mask mandates and restrictions getting lifted ?

It looks like it. But appointments may take a while. Like in 20 or so days if you are willing to wait. Otherwise, you might be able to walk-in but again you have to wait 1-2 hours.
My application was delivered on Feb 22 and my CC just got charged today.
If two people applied at the same time, one using in-mail and the other using in-person, the in-person applicant will get it sooner. In-person applications takes 10 business days, while in-mail applications take 20+ business days
My application was received by Passport office on Feb 08, still no CC has been charged.Is CC charge an indication everything is OK? My application was sent about 3 weeks ago, and still no CC chargeI saw people who applied with or after me getting their CC charged already. I wonder if this is a cause of worry
Did you had guarantor or you got statutory deceleration form from notary? (In my view that could only be the reason as I have called them several time for the reason and they told me every application is different)?
Some people get their credit card charged 4-5 weeks after and everything is fineIs CC charge an indication everything is OK? My application was sent about 3 weeks ago, and still no CC charge
