Canadian Passport Renewal

[Nagle]

I just wanted to report here on my recent passport renewal. My passport is up for renewal in September so I decided to renew as soon as I got back from a 4 day trip to Ohio near the end of May. I didn’t want to be right at the end of it’s lifespan on or upcoming WDW trip in August.

I picked up the forms at the local Service Canada office here in Brockville, Ontario and filled everything out at home.

Made an appointment at the Brockville Service Canada office at opening on Wednesday June 5. The young man I met with was very helpful and proceeded to scan all of my documents to the main office. I paid for the 10 year renewal at that time. Their service standard was that it would be mailed to my within 20 working days if everything was in order (July 4).

I received my new passport on Thursday June 13. .

I am completely pleased with the whole experience. Kudos to Service Canada!

It seems like they are really cranking them out now! Since April 2024 they have processed about 900,000 passports! That's incredible. Glad you got such quick service!

a government department here in Ottawa (actually Gatineau I think) did that much in 2 months?!?

I have to get mine done but cant until after my July trip to Florida. I need it within 5 weeks though so I think I'll have to rush it to guarantee.

Drove my daughter (now 20 and not the cute little munchkin from the photo on the left) to her appointment for her first 'adult' passport late last Friday afternoon. Her new passport arrived this afternoon, so assuming it was mailed yesterday, it was two business days. And no, we don't have any travel currently scheduled, so it wasn't a rush request.

Wow! That’s really quick!

My son got his first adult passport and my husband and I had to do our renewals a few weeks back. Lines were still long at the Whitby passport office, but we got our passports just over a week later. 7 business days in total.
