got passport today 17 weeks not a good thing still i am glad to move on Also, as your posts suggest you do not have any Canadian proof of your immigration status, you need to look at that first. At best, you are vulnerable to losing your job, healthcare, etc, if you cannot prove you are a permanent resident. And at worst, if it turns out you were only admitted to Canada as a tourist rather than an immigrant in 1964, then you have much deeper problems which might require an appeal to the Minister for Immigration to sort out. At a minimum, do not leave Canada until you get a permanent resident card. |

Samantha I have removed your last name and date of birth, it's really not wise to post personal info like that on a public online community.
Have you called Careline? I haven't contacted care line YET cause I don't want to have to pay even more $$ to have them say. "we dont see you in the system" or "sorry can't help" I know I'm gonna have to do it but I'm praying for a small miracle of it showing up.:fingerscrossed: |

Re: Passport Delays
Deans not around:( I've read in a older post that he's help before..... Oh well I guess I have no choice but to spend even more money!!! It's so upsetting that I have to pay $200+ on the passport than have to pay $2per min to find out where it is.
I also had to send of for my kids first time American passport they arrived 2days ago and only took 2 weeks to process. I know it's American and that way it's way faster than the British passports but it was like rubbing salt on a open wound...:rofl: I was glad they arrived but I was hurt that mine hadn't. It was a renewal. But I had lost my old passport. Also a name change. But when I took it in to the passport office in dc they told me I had everything in order and I should get I back before august. yEAH RIGHT |

At a minimum, do not leave Canada until you get a permanent resident card. So lets see how long it takes to get a PR card and or Canadian citizenship!! Yet more Government red tape as i have said b4 Common sense not so common ( Mark Twain) All the best luck to everyone that is waiting for this slow process No one have any suggestion on how to improve the passport process |
Re: Passport Delays
I am getting a bit twitchy myself about the passport. Calling the careline as soon as it reopens.
Courier has my application package as delivered June 6. Yes there was a name change but back to my maiden name. Not exactly rocket science. Fingers crossed! |

Re: Passport Delays
After all the stress of waiting for passports last month I ended up with two. An American one and a UK one.
(I gained US citizenship days before I went home on vacation.) I just came back to check how things are. Have the delays improved any? |
Re: Passport Delays
NO NO NO

Re: Passport Delays
I called the care line yesterday, they told me they couldn't find me in their system. Ive been waiting for 7wks now since they took payment. So what does it mean when they can't find you in the system?. The guy I spoke to told me to call back on Thursday. ?????? Don't know what I'm gonna do if they haven't even started the process on my passport. I'm stressing now!!:unsure:
