New passport renewal capturing done on the 21st April 2022. I travelled back with the old passport to edmonton because I had no other means of ID to travel. I was asked to mailed it back to your office, which I did on April 24th and was tracked down and received in your office on April 26th as per Canada post tracking no 573719182 CA. My OLD international passport number A 08182738 thereafter despatched as instructed to the Nigeria High Commission on April 26th, 2022 via Xpresspost mw 573719182 CA which was confirmed delivered to your office on April 26th, 2022. Passport renewal capturing done over 4 months (April 21st ) hasn't been treated as at August 2nd, traveling from edmonton to Ottawa was an extra costs (airfare & hotel bills) for me. I need a valid ID for my continued stay in Canada and I need to return back to Nigeria, having missed several flights. As a Nigerian I have done the needful and should be fairly treated, having paid the necessary costs for the passport renewal. Thank you. Joseph AKHERE Ehimen

Please what about those that did on the 3rd June 2022. I didn’t see where it was stated that it has been mailed out. I did mine on the 3rd June 2022.

John Chukwuemeka NwokoroSays
I applied for my passport on April 16th, 2022 when the Nigerian high commision came to St.John's Newfoundland and I still have not received my passport. I have tracked the prepaid canada postage several times but there's no information on Canada post, as it hasn't been shipped. I would like to know what is going on, as the people i applied with on the same day from here in St. John's have all received their passport but i haven't. I also urgently need my passport. I have tried calling the nigerian high commission severally but it keeps going to voicemail and no one is answering. My application ID is 18772629. Can someone pls advise on the status of my application. Thank you.
Abu SusanSays
Where is your old passport?
John Chukwuemeka NwokoroSays
It was put in the prepaid envelope and dropped on the day of the passport intervention. I don't have it with me.

Please, what about my passports renewal capturing on April 21st? Four (4) months after, still don't have useful information about whereabouts of my passports. Madam Susan, should kindly let me know what happened, I have chatted the same issue via Instagram with no concrete status. Somebody should investigate and respond to enable me travel. Joseph Ehimen AKHERE A 08182738 (Old passport )
Joseph Ehimen AKHERESays
Susan, please respond to my messages. Since April 21st, my passports are not treated despite the reminders. Why is my own left out without any reason? How long do I keep waiting? I need a valid ID to travel.
SamuelSays
I paid for passport renewal for my family of five. I clicked on the link on the acknowledgment slip to schedule appointment and it was seamless. I received a confirmation of appointment. However, I read on this page that the appointment scheduled via that platform is Invalid that only appointment scheduled on the mission's page will be honoured. I tried to schedule appointment on the mission page via https://nigeriahcottawa.ca/schedule-appointment/ but the page rolls endlessly after entering my details and I clicked on "Confirm". I have searched all the site and I can't seem to find other way to schedule appointment. Kindly direct me to the right place and steps to follow. Thank you.
Abu SusanSays
Where did you read that the appointment is invalid? What we said is that we prefer you pick a date from our calendar here. Because we have a maximum capacity on our page. You may end up picking a date from the Immigration site while we may be fully booked on that day.
Akugbe Allen EroSays
How does one track their document without a tracking number?? I did not get an email with a tracking number
Abu SusanSays
The number is on your Xpress envelope. You were supposed to copy it out or peel off the outer cover. You have to wait until you receive your passport in the mail if you do not have it
Joseph Ehimen AKHERESays
Good morning.Susan. Please, I need you to respond to my passport renewal. I did the capturing on April 21st and yet to receive the old and new passports to travel back to Nigeria. The older passport no is: A 573719182 thereafter despatched April 26th and received at your embassy on April 27th at 8.49am (Canada post tracking number 573719182 CA). Help me out with the overdelayed production Thank you.
AbidemiSays
Hi and thanks for the update . I had my capturing done on the 17th of June and i have tried tracking but keep getting this Response " We didn’t find an item associated with this number" What do i do please
Abu SusanSays
Give it time. By the way, did you leave your old passport with the Mission?
Christian AsuelimenSays
Hi, I did mine June 24th but I whenever I try tracking my Xpresspost, i often receive no response. More like it hasn’t been mailed. My friends who we went together on the same day have either received their passports or they get updated responses whenever they track their mails. What could be wrong with mine? Can you please respond to this. Thanks Christian A
Abu SusanSays
Where is your old passport?
Christian AsuelimenSays
I left it behind in the xpresspost envelope
Abu SusanSays
Okay, I will check for it on Monday.
OkorieSays
Same experience here. I did my capturing on June 17th and left the old passport in the return envelope as advised. @Susan, Kindly check for OKORIE NWACHUKU EZE
OkorieSays
Hi Susan, I captured on the 17th of June, meaning that my passports are supposedly amongst this batch. However, as today the status of the shipment is still not found when I track. What could be the challenge, please? Okorie
OkorieSays
Current tracking status shows that my parcel is already delivered to an unknown person and address. Please, what is happening here? Which address did you guys mail my passports to?
OkorieSays
I tracked my passports which happened to be among the batch updated as mailed out on July 31st; surprisingly, it showed that Canada post was struggling to deliver the parcel within Maple Ridge, BC. I became instantly worried because I did not know the relationship between SURREY and Maple Ridge; it looked too expensive for a mistake. Since yesterday, I have made relentless efforts to re-route delivery to the correct address I supplied to Nigeria High Commission in Ottawa. Unfortunately, I just received a delivery email from Canada post. To where and to whom? I don't know! Please, where did you mail my old and renewed passports to? And what next? OKORIE NWACHUKU EZE (Captured on June 17th) Tracking ID: MW 573 225 621 CA Passport Number: A50524117

Hello, I came for passport renewal June 7th and I left my old passport in the xpress post.The tracking number is saying item not found more like you guys haven’t sent it.Please what is going on? My full name is Rosemond Ebegba
Abu SusanSays
Call the office with the number on the website.
Christian ASays
@Abususan can you please provide an update as regards to my passport status? There's no way to reach the High Commission except this medium for now. Thanks
Abu SusanSays
And how can I do that without your full name and application details? Please send them to us privately on our Instagram account through direct message.
Christian AsuelimenSays
Can someone please provide me an update!!!! If there’s anything that requires my attention, let me know. There’s no phone number to call, nobody replies messages!!! It’s been two weeks ago that my friends received their passports and we submitted and captured on the same day. It’s not nice and fair to ignore Nigeria citizens whose only problem was to apply to renew their expired passport! It’s not fair!!!!
OluSays
Hi Susan, Trust you are doing great! Please I need to legalize a police character certificate obtained from Lagos, Nigeria recently. I only got to know recently and through your website that I need to verify the police character certificate from Min of Foreign Affairs, Abuja before I can legalize at the Nigeria High Commission, Ottawa. This is the first time I am legalizing a document in Canada and not aware of this requirement. Please how can you assist with this?
Dee OfiliSays
Hi Susan, I captured in mid-July and I am moving from the return address I had put on the envelope. Please how do I change it?

Edit Hello, please I went for my appointment to renew my passport on the 16th of September. I'm an international student and my study permit expires on the 12th of this month. Is it possible for me to get my passport back before then. I already wrote an email to generalinquiries@nigeriahcottawa.ca but all I got was an automatic reply. Please, I would appreciate your help.
Abu SusanSays

Hi Susan, I would like to know if the same-day or some kind of expedited service is still available at the consulate for passport renewal. I have a research trip from school in January. I have an appointment for November 30 at the consulate.
