Excellent please let me know if it is getting issued tomorrow which is the typical time it would take for it
Hope urs got issued today. mine moved to issued finally after 20 days of wait time…

still waiting. hopefully it doesnt take 3 weeks like yours. hopefully you got your passport back now.
Where should I check the status? When I’m trying to check the status in CEAC portal it say ‘your search didn’t return any result’. I dropped documents at canada post on Tuesday afternoon. Ottawa consulate received the package on yesterday.
Anyone still waiting for instructions from Toronto since June? Entered queue on Jun 21 and still haven't received anything.
