Hi,pbzh. Can you tell me when you sent you passport? Jan 11th.

I sent on Jan 12th, out for delivery since Jan 13th 10:30 am. It's never been delivered so far.

For you question, my friend sent last year Dec 20th who got his passport back Jan 10th this year, so I guess because of holidays, it will be around 2-3 weeks. Hopefully.

Hi Cohenbrother,

I sent it with Xpresspost on the 11th, I got confirmation it was delivered on the 12th. It seems really weird that yours wasn't...
2 to 3 weeks seems quite long, I was hoping for 10 days... we'll see. I'll post an update here when I receive it.
Hope your package will find its way today! Good luck!

It should be 10 days, but because of holidays, I don't think they will process this fast. But i hope they could do it. Anyway, I am prepared myself for 3 weeks.

Ok, first, I don't request any signature.
Second, Canada post told me ,it should be in the PO box, probably they didn't go to pick it up on Friday. If they pick them up it will show delivered. If not, it will be out for delivery forwever.
Third, I heard it was normal, maybe they forgot to scan some.
I don't know, I hope they don't mess up with my passport.
And I will keep bothering Canada Post in the following days.

I even email CIC, but I don't know if they will reply me with this.

@cohenbrother as of today I'm at the same situation. I've shipped mine on the 12th, but later (6pm). It updated to "Out for Delivery" at 10am this morning. Difference is this timeline still makes sense to me because I've sent it later that day.

Perhaps all our passports are on the same bin waiting for pickup :'(

Here is what I have on the Canada Post website:

2017/01/12 11:14 OTTAWA, ON Delivered
2017/01/12 10:46 OTTAWA, ON Out for delivery
2017/01/12 02:20 OTTAWA, ON Item processed
2017/01/11 15:32 MONTREAL, QC Item accepted at the Post Office

I did not request for signature either. Maybe they forgot to scan it when it arrived.
Have you tried sending an email to the Ottawa Office email address? Maybe they can tell you if they have received your parcel or not.

I currently have a Young Pro work permit, but my company is closing soon so I need to find another job. Hence the hurry to get the COPR soon.

Keep us posted!

I just sent the email to cic just a few mins ago, but the auto-respond is they will try to reply me within 20 days. 20days later probably I will get my passport back even.
Also I don't think they will reply.
I don't know. Really frustrated

If you're inland, call them early in the morning. Usually before 8am or 7:30 the lines are empty and you'll talk to someone in a few minutes (to avoid the 40 mins wait if calling during daytime).

The following is what @Smearingo said on page 435

"
I believe it should be fine. In other threads ppl talk about this and they say the status has remained always as "out for delivery" even after the moment the CoPR and passport have been returned. It's a bug in CanadaPost system. For Xpressport (which is quite expensive, but they dun scan all envelopes? c'est incroyable Angry )
for mine, since Monday 10:30am, it has become "out for delivery" and not changed to anything else.
"

I hope it should be fine. The only thing I don't want is canada post mess up with my passport

Then we should start to look at the return tracking code. If it's a bug, the return may show up even before the first one is updated.

This is almost our final step, it should not have been like this, so bad. I don't think our return envelope will be activated in another week, Wrost will be two or three weeks.

Anyway, I will call Canada post every day to bother them until I see my status changed or I got my return envelope. :-X :-X :-X
