I applied in November 27, 2021, they have charged my CC as well for the fees but till now nothing, I sent several webforms, elevated in Urgent process but still no luck! Getting frustrated as to where and whom to contact for this.

I applied to RTD on 25 march 2023, I sent the urgency application before 10 days and today the fees of the application appeared on my credit card. From your previous experience, does this mean that the application is processed ? after how many days I may get it ?
thank you
I applied in January 2023 and they took the fees and still nothing, but I heard people applied in March 19 ish and already received it

Hi JoeAK, I’m curious, did you use a guarantor or did you fill the statutory declaration in lieu of a guarantor form? I had no guarantor and used a notary public. I’m thinking that is what is causing the delay for mine.

Hello, I used a guarantor so I don’t think that’s why it’s delayed

First I submitted my information via webform and in the attachments i added the doctor's note. After that, someone called me and asked me to mail my application which I did through Canada post to
OSC PPT-COI
PO Box 8783 STN T CSC
Ottawa, ON K1G 5G8

Then once I sent my application, I faxed them a letter providing my details and also the tracking number of my application.

Then I just had to wait for three weeks to receive the RTD in my mail.
Hello,

What wad the fax number you used to sent the letters? I need it to follow up my application, it's been more that 15 months I've been waiting for RTD.

Thanks,

Hello,
I called the IRB concerns RTD application since September 2022. I was told that my application has been flagged as urgent. I was also told to buy a plane ticket and couriering it to the Quebec location as further proof of travel. Did anyone have a similar experience and if so did you receive your Travel Documents after sending in the airline ticket?
Would not buy a ticket in advance unless it is full refundable until you get your RTD because the strike could shut down RTD processing.
