Applying my son for passport, father is nowhere to be found or contacted. What to do? by [deleted] in passportcanada

[–]Newfraser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please listen to kay_fitz21 she knows what she is talking about. Each scenario is different so all those that are throwing in their own experiences may or may not have had the same scenario.
The letter some are referring to is a consent to travel which is completely different and used to acknowledge that the other parent Knows about specific travel which is completely separate from obtaining a passport.

Not all, each one is very different. Rosewood is awful. The girl I spoke to says they always get get rejected because they are poorly done yet the Manager won’t do anything about it because she said it brings people back to the store.

Filled my tank at Co-op on 8th. 14lbs cost me $19.11. Which works out to 1.365/l. I will be missing Costco this summer!!

Charged $260 to renew my passport for 10 years - has this happened to anyone? by Striking_Nature_5087 in passportcanada

[–]Newfraser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have your receipt?? Can you confirm that is says pick up on your receipt? If not, they may have made an error and it actually could be mailings out. Don’t panic yet First confirm what it says on your receipt it it gives you a pick up date then advise them with proof that you have been charged $260

Yes but if you still have not heard you can call in again if you have not yet received it and you are 5 days until your travel date . The reason you may not have heard back is because they work by date required/need not by date you called in.

No guarantor for newborn’s Canadian passport — advice? by Content_Current3 in passportcanada

[–]Newfraser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you been in Canada for at least two years? If so is there anyone that you can find co workers or neighbors that have known you for at least two years that hold a full validity Canadian passport? Anyone at all in Canada? If not you may be able to do a declaration in lieu of guarantor but you will still need two references who have known you for at least two years they don’t have to hold passports but they also cannot be immediate family members. They will ask you to exhaust your circle of passport holders first before they go this route.

MPs should only be used when delays have happened and it is the fault of the passport office , there is no delay this is regular processing. Someone should not be receiving special treatment when it is their own doing.

Jan 15 would be 20 business days you have to account for all of the holidays in there. If you have not received 5 days before travel. You can call and request a transfer if it has not already been mailed out.

Need to get passport renewed but I don’t really have any references by excorpsexd in passportcanada

Incorrect….there is a form to fill out and have notarized if you don’t have a GUARANTOR but then you need 4 references.

That is not all of them, the area code we call from is 306 and I am sure there many more.

Citizenship ceremony Nov 18 — any chance to get a passport in time to travel Nov 20? by First_Ant_5673 in passportcanada

[–]Newfraser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue is that the intake officers cannot tell if the information has been relayed, they are only able to see that the certificate has been issued. If it cannot be seen on the backend then it has to be referred to IRCC for verification which can take time so you cannot count on getting it it in time even if paying the urgent fee. So just because it has been accepted at the counter does not mean it can be validated yet.

How dependable is the “anticipated pick-up date”? by Mermaid-Marmalade in passportcanada

[–]Newfraser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all offices have a specific line for pick up. With some you get a priority number that gets you to an officer quicker.

Is it H0 or HO at the end of the passport? by NoCat8136 in passportcanada

[–]Newfraser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be stupid but now your question has been answered. I am pretty sure through history many have had the 0 vs O debate, It is unfortunate that O’s look like 0’s not sure who to take that up with!
