I have applied for TRV at canadian consulate in Newyork. I sent the documents to them on Aug 24 by USPS express mail. I have a appointment in Canada on October 1st. Can anybody let me know if I would get the passport within that time.

I send them email enquiring about the status, but no reply. Any help is appreciated.

Why didn't you go there in person?...it would have be the same day processing.

Try to call the office if you can...or you have to patiently wait for them to respond back to you!!!

Hi,

I got my passport back on 15th September. It took me exactly 14 business days for me to get my passport back. They mailed it on 14th September and I got the next day. So keep checking your return USPS express mail envelope number so that you will have an idea if they posted it.

Hoping you will also get in the same time.

hey man, they accepted my application on Sep 27th and I heard nothing from them yet. So as long as I do not receive my passport back I think you won't get yours back.

I sent my application my mail to NYC too, and it reached October 5. No word from them as yet. I'm getting really stressed because I have a flight booked to my home country next week, and I want my passport back, whether they give the visa or not! If anyone has a contact number for the consulate where I can get a human to answer me, please let me know.

I have to say, man, just change the flight or withdraw your application which will cause you to loss your application fee. They accepted my application for trv on Sep 27th. I check my status. it is still in process. As long as there are a bunch of people like me who submitted application in Sep and didn't get their passport back, I think you need to wait much more longer than us.

haorunlu, how did you check your status? I am not able to contact them by phone, fax, or e-mail. I've sent them many e-mails asking to withdraw my application in the last few days, and haven't heard anything.

Worst consulate in the world!

Honestly, there is no way you could check your status. I only checked once by e-mail. They mailed me back my file number and the status of my case. If you e-mail them to withdraw, they will do that for you but the only thing that matters is when they will do that for you. I think if you really need your passport back, you should go to the consulate yourself and get it back.
