Hello Susan, I want to start by thanking you for the work you all do. I appreciate everyone of you. Please I need your help to urgently resolve this passport issue. I came to the High Commission on Sept. 6th 2022 for data capture. My passport was processed and sent out by the High Commission. However, due to Canada Post Error, my passport was returned back to the High Commission. I have contacted Canada Post and one of their supervisors confirmed to me that this was a machine error on the part of Canada Post, being the reason my passport was delivered back to the High Commission on November 16th, 2022. Please kindly ask one of your staff to check received mails to the High Commission on November 16th, 2022 at 11:18am. My passport with the prepaid Canada Post envelop is sitting in the High Commission. Please kindly advice further on how this passport can be sent to me in Toronto. Thank you
Abu SusanSays
So, this is how it works. Canada post does not return it directly to our office. They usually send it to a post office close to the Mission. And you have to pay a penalty fee to collect a returned parcel. Let them tell you the penalty and then you can pay them and send the receipt to us. Then our staff can use the receipt to pick it up.

Good afternoon, I came to the High commission with my son on the 14th of September 2022 for passport biometric capture for me and my son. We are yet to receive our passport booklets more than 10 weeks after our biometrics. There is currently no update on the High commission's website from the passport unit for applicants who did biometrics on September 6th 7th, 8th, 9th, 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th 2022. It looks like these dates were skipped from passport production and passport units updates on the website. Please look into this. Thank you for your service.
Abu SusanSays
We did not skip any date. Perhaps they were not posted here by omission. If you have not received your passports, send a direct message with your details to us on our Instagram page.
Tayo OrebiyiSays

Please help with my family's passport . We came on August 30 for the photo capture and I have sent emails to the inquiry box with our details. I left our old passports in the Express post envelope, my flight to Nigeria is in 10 days and we need to know what we need to do to fix whatever is causing the delay.
Abu SusanSays
You did not mention your full name or the names of any member of your family. We cannot locate an application without details.

UkamakaSays
Please assist - I was at the commission for passport renewal on Sept 9 and I have not received my passports yet. Attempts to track on CanadaPost with my tracking number keeps returning the same message "We didn’t find an item associated with this number" My first name is Ukamaka. I really appreciate your help. Thanks
Abu SusanSays
Where is your old passport?
Benjamin OkeneSays
I came to the embassy on September 9, 2022, for capture. Unfortunately, to date, I have yet to be able to track my passport through the Canada post return envelope, even though it is stated on the embassy website that I could start tracking it on November 22, 2022
Abu SusanSays
Did you drop your old passport at the Embassy after your biometric exercise?
PrincewillSays
Mine was on the 29th. Any idea when it will get to my turn. Traveling in 2 weeks.
Abu SusanSays
29TH of what month?
ToluSays
Do you expect that renewals from Oct. 24 will receive their passports before Dec. 16th? Can I pick them up from the HC to avoid the mail delay? Otherwise should we apply for an Emergency Travel Certificate? Our expired passports are at the High Commission as part of the passport renewal process, so we can't submit a copy of the bio data page as required, but could send everything else.
Abu SusanSays
They should be ready next week. If you want to pick up your passport. Send a direct message to our Instagram page before they mail them out.
