Hi, I applied for a new temporary resident visa (within canada) from Toronto, online on the 31st of October. It was approved on the 22nd of November.

My passport was sent and then was received by CPP in Ottawa on the 25th of November.

Did anyone else apply around that timeline, and receive their passports back?
I know some people get it between 2-3 business days. It is now December 4th and I wish to book my ticket to go home asap as airline tickets increase daily.

If anyone has any feedback or information it would greatly be appreciated!!!
Thank you

Id like to know the same thing as well. Applied Nov 13, Haven't heard anything back. They say processing time is 13 days...
 
By applied on November 13th do you mean you applied online, or do you mean you sent your passport to the CPP office in Ottawa on November 13th (after they approved your application online)

I applied for mine online on October 31st and got a response to send my passport in around the 21st of November. So they took around 20 days. They should approve your request soon.
 
I submitted my paper application on October 26 they received it on October October 29th and till now I have had no response from them. Its been 48 days!! I emailed them 4 times and I keep calling the call center agents but they seems to know nothing about Ottawa office. I did put an urgency on my application on Friday 13th of December to get my passport back to me as I already cancelled my tickets that I had booked for that day (December 13). But no action has been taken by the Ottawa office yet.

I need to visit back home as soon as possible, its really very urgent I have provided them with my details too. I can't seem to find a way to contact the Ottawa office, thinking for going there in person on Wednesday 18th- but doesn't look like anyone had any success with that till now. I am so stressed, I keep checking my emails and canada post tracking system regularly with no avail... (regular processing time for this application is 23days- they should really take that off!!!)
