Passports to CPC Ottawa- June 2017

[ashu1710]

Hey guys,

If we are entering Canada via air then all these landing issues I've been reading doesn't apply, right? I just realized I booked a ticket from Chicago to Toronto for a Saturday. I should be fine right?

Yup. You can land at an airport 24/7.

Why did you receive an email from them? Did you send an inquiry before?

They emailed me because they didn't think my label had the information necessary to make back through the border. This was on Thurs. the 15th, I then sent a replacement label on Fri. the 16th, and they responded to that email by saying "your item will be shipped this afternoon" on the same day. I still haven't received anything.

Thank you!

Which mailing service did you use. I have read on other threads that YES they might use regular First class Canada Post to mail your stuff back which might take more time than usual UPS or FedEx.

Thanks, I'm pretty sure I've seen that as well. I used FedEx both ways, but for sure my return FedEx label is expired now, with no tracking activated.

I used Fedex both sides with 1 day overnight shipping and it worked out perfect. Passport delivered to Ottawa on 16th June and received passport back today, 28 June. All the best

Cool. They told me the same; case is approved nothing needs to done and also congratulated me. However, in my case it didn't mean stamping is done yet.

Does your cic account shows case approved? Mine is still under process it shows. I believe the status changes to approved once stamping is complete.

I forgot to note the return tracking number as well so yeah I do check my mail everyday too but when I called again today rep told my passport is still in printing room and everything looks good should be getting copr and passport back real soon.

Hi guys - My passport was receive by CIC on 23rd June so naturally no updates yet.

The day I sent the passport, I realized I forgot to write application number on the back of photos. Though I did write my date of birth and name (plus photographer address and date). I emailed cpc-ottawa same day but no response yet. What should be the best thing to do at this moment.

Thanks
