Just had my citizenship oath ceremony. Will be eligible to apply for the passport on Wednesday. I plan to apply via courier. Just wanted to ask someone who has gone through the process, are we required to submit our original citizenship certificate to Passport Canada via mail or we can submit a duplicate?

I had my oath on Feb 5 as well, then I applied for passport same day, few hours later actually.. I went in person and they accepted it.. If you applied in person , they will just photocopy your original documents and it will take 10 days for the passport to arrived.. if you will mail it, it will take 4-6 weeks, and yes you have to submit your original documents, they will just send it back to you...if you have time, do it in person, if no they apply via mail... best of luck

I agree with the other reader here. If you can fill up, complete the passport form with the required signatures and passport photo, take it along with your Original Citizenship Certificate to the nearest passport office, it could be much faster.
