What options you need to select while calling cpp. It always says “due to high volume we can’t transfer your phone to the operator” and do you have an option of verifying the status of your application online ?
Yea it always says that most of the times I call. That one time I was lucky enough to get through.

Hi
My Timeline
Applied Online 05 Nov 2017
Passport request: 18 Nov 2017
Application Approved: 18 Nov 2017
Passport delivered to Ottawa: 21 Nov 2017
Tracker not yet activated
Called IRCC, they told me this time of the year processing time are way longer than usual. I can estimate 2-3 weeks from the day my Passport was delivered to Ottawa.

Well seeing others here, it looks fairly delayed procedure during this time of the year. Most of them have either not received the Passport OR if they did it took them approx 3weeks.

Hi,
Just curious, did anyone get your passport back by now?
I am currently experiencing a same problem right now, it's sooo frustrating.

Applied for TRV online - October 6, 2017
Submission confirmation - Oct 8
Passport Request - Oct 14
Passport Received - Oct 18
Application Approved - Nov 2

And the return Xpresspost is still not able to be tracked, which worries me. How long does it usually take for them to return the passport back?
My international flight is on November 16 and might have to move things around or even apply for another passport if it’s actually get lost.
Hi. Are you able to get your passport back on time???

I luckily got a chance to talk to the operator yesterday and he informed me that the processing time now is 4 weeks and since I started submitted on nov 15th, I would receive it any time before dec 15th.
I called them as well, the agent said that the visa was already printed on my passport and i can expect it on or before dec 15th. But i am leaving on the 12th.

Hang in there guys! The past month has been torture for me just waiting and waiting being full of anxiety. One thing that helped me is.....I asked the customer care agent if she would be willing to email CPP Ottawa on my behalf and tell them about my pre-booked flight. I explained to her that even though I do not have a medical emergency, I have a ticket already booked that my family purchased for me and I do not want to incur costs. Then I called back the following day, as she had asked me to call back and ask for an update on my file. The next customer agent told me they must have seen the email as I was approved literally that same day, within 24 hrs. I think that helped speed up my process. Here is my timeline:

Date of Application:
October 27th
Passport Request: November 3rd
Passport Sent to CPC-Ottawa: November 10th
Passport Received at CPC-Ottawa: November 14th
Visa Approved: November 29th
Tracker Activated: December 6th
Visa Received: Waiting....

It seems that most of us got our account updated yesterday. Hopefully, they’ll send it all out soon before our flights!

Let’s pray and hope for the best.
