I dont get it. why bother to ask for your passport if they are not ready to stamp it?
My husband back in june was asked for a copy of his passport and the free pages along with new PCC etc. in Sept they asked for his passport. I dont know why they asked for the photo copy, that makes no sense to me. He has never travelled anywhere so I would think the CSIS check would be pretty fast. So I dont know why it takes them so long to stick a stamp on a passport. surely they have done all the checks needed within a short span of time. I have read some get their passports back in 7 days while others 14 days or a month. How come some get faster than others? I realize if you travel to another country it takes a bit longer, but they are just running a name through arent they? It really takes 7 weeks to do that? I dont get that.
