Abu SusanSays
Same day service is not available.
JohnSays
I came with my wife and captured April 28th 2022, since there was no booklet, we requested for our submitted passports to enable us travel back to Nigeria. Now we are in Nigeria with our passports. The passports for April 28th had been produced, we try tacking ours but the results kept saying "No information about your package." Please kindly mail our passports with the submitted addressed envelope.
Abu SusanSays
The delay in mailing the new copies is because you are still with the old copies. We need you to send in the old copies for cancellation before we can mail both old and new copies back to you. As long as you hold on to the old copies, the new copies will not be mailed to your address.
RosemondEbegbaSays
What of people that left their old passports at the high commission what's causing the delay in getting their new passports sent to them?
Abu SusanSays
Several issues. It depends on when you came in. And lately, we have been having problems with the wrong mailing addresses from applicants. When that happens, it's always a challenge between applicants, the post office and the Mission.
Rosemond EbegbaSays
I haven’t recieved mine yet despite the fact that my mailing address is correct and I have an urgent application on CIC that needs my new passport.My address seems correct so far on my tracking details but here it is again 109-4 Greentree Court,York,Ontario(M6M2A5).My full name is Rosemond Oghenefejiro Ebegba and my tracking is PG636895276CA.Please Susan look into this for me,I came for capturing on the 7th of June.
Abu SusanSays
Where is your old passport?

Imoleayo Maku-tundeSays
Hi, please I tracked my passport delivery and it says is being returned back to the sender. What needs to be done now? please.
Abu SusanSays
They usually return it to the nearest post office to the Mission. It means there was a mistake on the address you wrote on the envelope. Call Canada post for the full details and get back to us.

Taiye DavidsonSays
Hello Susan, I want to say thank you guys for your swift renewal of my passport. But I am currently in a situation. I came for my passport renewal on Wed June 22, 2022. The address I put on my return envelope, I already moved before the passport was shipped. Now, sadly, the parcel couldn’t be located and both new tenants and Landlord deny receiving or seeing the parcel. I am currently trying to reapply for a replacement but there’s a section where I have to fill in the new passport number which I don’t have because the passport didn’t get to me. Please Susan what can I do about this? I would really appreciate your help on how to go about the replacement of my lost passport. My name is Taiye Davidson and my old passport no is A08345994 Thanks and God bless.
Abu SusanSays
Sorry I just noticed your message. I will get back to you soon.
Erhiga Abel OrhenomareSays
Hi Susan, Please I need your help. I came for my capture on the 27th of July, 2022. I mistakenly filled the wrong apartment number (208) on the self-addressed Canada post envelope I submitted. The right apartment number should be 205. I've tried to contact the occupants at 208 to no avail. And I've also tried to contact the customer service phone number but no success. Please can you help me correct the apartment number before mailing. The address should be: 205 - 10 San Romanoway, Toronto, ON Canada. M3N2Y2 Full name: ERHIGA ABEL ORHENOMARE Phone number: 6475421866 Tracking number: PG 628456600 CA Old Passport number: A08537487 I will truly appreciate your help with this please.

Chioma OsisioguSays
Hello again, my name is chioma osisiogu. My application ID is 18744016 and my reference number is 1112721908. I submitted my application on 23 march 2022 at 11:06pm, and did photo capturing on 16 april 2022 during the passport intervention that was held in st.john's NL. I urgently need to get any information on my passport becuase my xpresspost tracking number keeps saying there is no such package, which means it is yet to be shipped. I need my new passport very urgently for my study permit. All the other applicants who did capturing with me on the 16 april,2022 have already gotten their passports a month ago. It has been more than 3 months and I have been trying to contact your office but no one is responding. I just want to know if both of my passports are still with the office because I really really need my new passport for my study permit. I am already very concerned as no one is responding to my calls and want to know what is going on with my passports. Also, I am not with my old passport, the office is with it because I put it together with my documents in the xpresspost envelope.
