Whats your status? Did you called them?We have exactly the same timeline. But my cc was charged on the 27th

No, I actually sent them a website request about 3 weeks ago I guess, nobody replied. Did you call them?
I was thinking to call them, but not sure if it will help and what I've seen, you have to wait about 1.5hr on the phone to reach them.

I called them, they said separately. But here says together :/ I'm confused. Thanks for help.
How close do the travel plans have to be to have the file transferred if you’re over the 25 days already?
Looks like they do not respond to online request.
I sent 1st request 15 days ago, no reply.
I sent 2nd request 5 days ago, no reply.
so online request doesn't work. Calling them is only option.

Same here. Requests of status update were unanswered.
Applied on March 7 and still waiting.
I had sent an ATIP request to Passport Canada under the privacy act and they sent back screenshots of their processing. Important take aways was that the screenshots were taken on 10th May and last update was from 20th April (day of credit card charge). So 20 days and no movement on the file. Who knows if there has been any other processing since the screenshots were taken. They had put application received date as 23rd March 2022 and 'expected completion date' as 22nd April 2022 - what a joke. The application status said 'Ready to Examine'.
As per latest news govt has hired 600 employees for processing of passports. However training of 12 weeks will be required before they start working.
Humble request to those who are not traveling soon to keep patience. That way those who have travel plans may get their passports on time. Contacting them again & again will only take resources out from already stretched system. They are facing unprecedented number of requests.
