    Passports to CPC Ottawa - Aug 2016

    :), no it is not recommended by IRCC. In fact the term "flagpole" is nowhere mentioned on their website as a way of landing. They just mention 2 options to land and you can search for those two options on their website at your own leisure if needed. Meanwhile, I suggest reading what I wrote...

    Passports to CPC Ottawa - Aug 2016

    I appreciate your comment. But what I posted is based on my own experience. It seems as though you made an assumption on my integrity and wrote in haste :). Every case and application is treated differently. The more use cases are shared, the better context we get so we can make an educated...

    Passports to CPC Ottawa - September 2016

    Congrats to all who received their passport. Those who didn't yet, trust me you will and don't lose your hair over the delay. You can't do much about it, so there is no point in worrying about something you have no control over (Lesson I learnt over and over in my life). Now, piece of advice to...

    Passports to CPC Ottawa - Aug 2016

    Just sit tight i suggest, you will get it back eventually. We all have waited for so long already to get to this point. I am almost certain that it will not take up to 3 months for you to get it back. Good luck!

    Passports to CPC Ottawa - Aug 2016

    I got mine back too. They received my PP on August 24th and I got my PP back on the 12th of September. Also, I was concerned earlier if half sized return envelope would be sufficient for them to send my passport back along with CoPR. So just confirming, it was not an issue. Thanks to all and...

    Passports to CPC Ottawa - Aug 2016

    Thanks, I hope not! I haven't linked MyCIC account with ECAS so I can't check the status there yet. I think I'll just wait it out given that so many of us are still waiting on getting the passports back since it was reached around Aug 24th. Cheers
