Hi everyone, I am sending my application by post today for a surrender certificate (Toronto). It looks like they want me to include my original Canadian passport with the application? Is this right? Can someone pls confirm? I have included attested copies, do I really need to submit the original too?

Submit your original Indian passport as it has to be cancelled. No need for Canadian one. Only self attested is enough.

Anyone aware of processing times for the entry visa?
