Congrats! How long did it take to update?? Did you contact the police station or just waited?

Thanks! It took almost a week after the verification. PS asked us to wait when we contacted them to get the update.

What is escalated to CPPF?

To be honest, I do not know.

CPPF.... sounds like central passport printing facility or something.

Hi All,

I have Print initiated on January 18th. How long it takes from print initiated to printed and when I can get my passport? I have my flight Feb 2nd. Do you all think if I can get it before then?

Got it! I contacted the local police station, they said they have sent it on 20th January and asked to wait till 28th January, not sure how that waiting time was decided though.

Hi All,
My passport status on consulate website says Passport has been printed and on BLS it says in transit from Consulate to BLS.
Few Questions-
Are passports printed in Toronto Consulate?
Can we pick from consulate and if not can we pick it from BLS even if I have paid for shipping to my home address?

I have urgent travel coming up and need passport urgently avoiding and delays in shipment. Please help.
