Canadian Passport - Mail-In Application Timelines

[gcamp]

I also wonder why they need a whole new application. I hope at least they can process the new application quickly. You said they will call you for in-person appointment. That would better than mailing it again.

I don’t have time to mail it in. My flight is April 18th.

That’s weird. Why would they even charge cc when your application has errors. They could have you simply fax/xpresspost just the first page of the application or even a new application with errors fixed

I know! I’m so discouraged!

If you don’t mind me asking, did you put any travel date in your application or you selected ‘Unknown’ ?

I am going to assume the same for me. Mine was delivered on March 3rd . Completely lost hope.

Is it common for them to process applications separately even though everything was sent in the same envelope ?

Since we are all here together waiting, I guess I would like to ask you guys: do people usually send family applications in in the same package? I did search a lot for an answer when I was applying, and since I couldn't find any info, I sent different family applications in separate envelops. ;/

Congratulations!!!

Do you recall entering your travel date in your application or you chose ‘Unknown’ ?

I put May 1st as a travel date, even though I haven't booked anything yet.

It should be the same envelope but it doesn't matter as they will process each application seperatey.

Thanks for your reply.

So folks whoever put Uknown there are facing long delays no matter when they sent the application and how long they are waiting.

 

[PumpkinJack]

Question- What are the details they ask when you call passport help desk for the first time ?
