Documents returned without passport

[vvn102]

I applied for a TRV at the Canadian Consulate in LA (mailed them my documents and passport) - 2 weeks ago. Yesterday I received a package (sent using the prepaid UPS shipping label I had enclosed) with my original documents in it. But no passport. Am I to assume that my passports were lost in transit?

I have tried raising the Consulate with queries - but no satisfactory response yet.

Some questions for people who have done this before with LA Consulate
1. Are the documents and the passports returned separately?
2. If the passports and visa application need additional processing, will the passports be retained for a longer time while the documents are returned?
3. Other than email, is there any other way to contact the Consulate Visa department?

I think you should go to Consulate in LA and raise your question.If you don't want to keep on waiting. 8)

I could go to the Consulate in LA... but don't I need an appointment to get in and meet somebody? The visa/immigration dept doesn't even have a phone number.

Hi
Did you ever get your passport back from the consulate?

Same thing happened to me, received the documents without a passport

Please reply me understanding how disappointment it is to lose the valuable passport.

Thank you
