    Good morning, I came to the Commission on the 20th of April along with my daughter for renewal, I received mine today but my daughter's is yet to arrive even as she was ahead of me on the list for capturing, we were one of the first 15 people to be allowed in on that day. When I track it on Canada post, the system says no item associated with that tracker ID exist. Can I get an update on this, please. Thank you,

      It means your daughter had fingerprint issues and the officers may still be waiting for Abuja to fix it. We have been having fingerprint issues with children and teenagers. Give it a little bit of time.

    I am trying to track my passport movement on Canada post using the tracking number on my envelope, but I keep getting a message that the item couldn’t be found. What do I do?

      Yours must be a major issue, either biometric capture issues, or you took away your old passport/challenge with your address. Please call the office on Tuesday at 9:30am

    Hello, I came to the Embassy with my son on February 13, 2023 for his passport renewal. Up until now May 15, 2023 the said passport have still not been issued. My son’s name is Mycah Imla Emovon. Please can someone or anyone tell us what the precise issue is. We have had to forego a family vacation even with flight tickets bought because we have not received his passport. Do I have to come back physically to the Embassy to get an update or a reason why his passport is not ready after 3 whole months?

    Hello High Commission Team, Please I am kindly reaching out as it regards my passport tracking, I really need it to apply for my Post Graduate Work Permit. The website states that for those within April 25 - 3rd of May, we should check out our tracking from the 11th of May. I have checked online through Canada Post, but it says no tracking details are available yet. Please I’ll want to know if the passport has been sent yet, because I did all the capture and biometrics completely. Name: Wilson Fidelis Ekpotu

      I hope you didn't have issues with your NIN? It is a major reason for some of the delays. Please call the office on Tuesday or email generalinquiries.
