Hey broI went to IRCC Etobicoke office to ask for my passport which seized when i applied for Asylum i got my PR Card by mail last month and they told me to send a letter with Canadapost and explain why you need your Passport and they will send an appointment to come in person to collect the passport.
I sent a letter with Canada post on the 26/Nov/2021 to IRCC Etobicoke office (5343 Dundas St W) i tried contacting them so many times but no reply and i went in person last week to check and the Security told me to wait and they cannot give me an exact time.

Thanks for your reply,Yeah i was shocked as well i asked him 3 times and told him that i have heard like it will affect my status and he was so sure that nothing will happen i will never trust these agents as they would be the one turning me that why didn’t you read the law.I guess agent doesn't have a clue about the law. i suppose it is one of the call center agent...dont do that Faisal
Years ago, at least till 2017 , the day that a protected person become a PR , was receiving in front of the IRCC officer, the home passport + PR card+ CoPR.If you claimed refugee status, you don’t get your passport back. They don’t have to give it back to you. You have to ask for it and explain why with a positive decision you need it back. Why do you need it?

You can’t use your home passport, must put in risk your PR statusI wrote a mail through web form on IRCC asking where was my passport. After two weeks, they responded to me. They told me it was supposed to get it when I receive my PR card, but if I wanted it before, I will have to contact the office that had my passport. In my case, they told me that my passport was on 6900 Airport road. I went directly to that office and brought the CopR document, driver's license and a formal letter that said: I would like to get my passport back because I already got a permanent residence. I did not give any explanation, but it is up to you to write the reason you want it back.
They accepted my letter without a problem. Two days after they called me to pick up my passport. I went there, waited for a while, signed a form they gave me and that is all. I got my passport back. There were no questions nor issues with that requeriment.
