Glad you made this video cuz in a few weeks I’ll be making the trip up renew my passport. So I’ll need a Canada Post National Envelop. And the form I filled printed and signed. Money Order . I don’t understand why I have to pay the fees in US dollars for services in Canada ?

Hello... I'm trying to schedule an appointment for the ottawa locatu9n. I'm quite confused on where exactly on the website i schedule. There's the one that comes up on the payment slip... and there's a scheduling section on the actual website . Don't know which I should go it. The scheduling link off the payment confirmation slip shows so many available slot... I booked that and was able to print that....but never rceived an email confimration. But the one on the website has few slots available...I tried that as well for a different day as the date I want isn't available on that page. ..but no way to print the confirmation. ..more like none. The only thing that gets sent is an email confirmation. Don't know if that's what they're asking to be printed out. I'm so so confused really don't know which to go with

Hey! I’m not sure about now but I think the scheduling section on the website is more accurate. That’s the option I used and I received an email confirmation immediately.

Hi Ebun, thanks for this video . My questions; 1. Must my passport photograph be notarized? 2. How many express envelopes do I need ? Is money order purchased before making application? Thanks in anticipation.
@EbunPeter Жыл бұрын
Hi!! I’m not sure of the current requirements as it’s been about 2years since I renewed my passport. The money order should be done before your appointment date. I think you’d need two express envelopes as well - one to drop off your old passport in and the second one is what they’ll send your new passport in I believe. I’d check if I find a link with details and let you know. Thanks for watching!!

Hey! I’m not sure there are any other extra charges, except probably if you’d want same day service. I believe the $106 CAD is the application fee to be paid after filling the form and $50 CAD is more like service fee - that’s my understanding.
