Hi Guys,

A quick question again!
So I mailed my passport for TRV (after approval of PGWP). My mail was delivered on Sept 22 but after that I did not receive any notification or anything from them. I am trying to track my return package as well but it shows no information available.

I was wondering if anyone can help me what should I do. Do they update our account after receiving our passport or not? Also, how long does it take to get our passport back.

Thanks in advance.
Hi how do you do this?I just recieved my PGWP, and I was wondering if I need to submit my passport, I did not read any instructions from CIC that I need to mail it.
