MiltonCongrats! Which Service Canada?
I applied at the same Service Canada on September 21 and got my passport on Wednesday. I think you'll get yours next week. Congrats!I applied for a passport in Laval (QC) in-person (regular Service Canada Center) on September 22nd with no travel date/proof, I called them a couple of days ago and they told me my file was approved on October 25th. Any idea what the timeline is between the approval and the shipping date ?
The wait times are posted online on IRCC website in real time - every day at 9:30 am, 12 pm and 2pm.Any recent experience by people at Scarborough passport office??
How bad are the lineups these days?
A quick updte from my side ---- I had applied for the passport ---in person..... at the Brampton Service Canada Passport office on 10/26/ 22. Got the passport in hand today by Canada Post. No urgent requirement / travel proof / extra money paid. Looks like the processing speed is picking up and will be BAU soon.You need to show travel proof only for emergency requests. For BAU, you dont need travel proof and they indicated in the counter that they are mailing the passports out in 2 weeks + 1 or 2 more to get it in hand. If you want to collect it in person, pay additional 20$ and collect it.
You can submit the docs either in Service Canada passport office (above timelines) or in regular Service Canada (add another 2 weeks). Eitherways go early and prepare to be part of a line up. It should be around 1.5 to 2 hrs or so
yes. Plese go to a service canada passport office - walkin - prepare to wait in the line but should be done quick. My timeline not sure if it is the norm, but end to end was 6 calendar days - including a weekend in between and 1 day for mailingI live in Toronto and want to apply for standard passport application (10 -20 business days). Is it possible to go to a passport office as walk in and apply for standard passport? Which location in Toronto is fastest for passport processing?
