Thank you. Hope there is not too much waiting like for Canadian passport
Why do you want to wait in the walk-in queue? They have appointments open from mid August unless you are in a hurry. Remember you will have to queue up to collect so avoid once if you can :)

Can I surrender my indian passport before I get my certificate & apply for canadian passport afterwards ?

I am waiting for legal name change & not sure how much time it would take so wanted to get these things done beforehand.

Thanks for your reply.

One more question:
I can surrender my Indian passport as soon as I get my certificate? I don't have to wait till I get a Canadian passport?

If you don't mind me telling, how many days you had to wait before getting your certificate. I had oath on 5th July.

Mine was Scarborough and they’re pretty good (fast) in sending the certificates upon oath.
