Same here, 160$ when you turn the app in a canada passport office yourself and receive it by Canada post. Took only 1 week after my wife applied and received the passport in the mailbox!

If you go to a Passport Canada office, they will check it then give it bacj to you. Not sure when you mail your application by canada post.

So you have the choice of applying for 5 or 10 years? What is the advantage of applying for the 10 years over the 5 years?

The only advantage is its valid for 10 years than 5 years meaning you don't have to renew it until the 10years are up.

1 - The convenience of not having to renew it after 5 years.
2 - Paying 160 dollars for 10 years instead 140 for 5 years + 140 for the next 5 years (assuming, of course, it will remain 140 dollars in 5 years).
