Ottawa if you are sending your docs by regular mail (eg canada post)
Gatineau if you using courrier service (eg UPS, FedEx, etc)

Hello guys, urgent question. Can one re-apply and send new application for RTD if the old application is taking too long and not in IRCC system? Please kindly let me know. Have been waiting for too long. Thanks guys

No, I submitted a paper application and mailed it.

Wow, you are very lucky! I’ve been waiting since June, 2022- they haven’t done anything, I’ve submitted many webforms and even my member of parliament was involved- my grandfather has even died during these months, yet I had wanted to see him in his sickness! Congratulations to you

Woooooow… That was crazy. You can travel and come back to Canada without PR, no problem. Take your decision letter and work permit with you. Did you re-submit a new application or you waited for the old one? Give more details. Thanks and congratulations.

I just got my RTD. I submitted a webform for urgent processing and provided them with information on when I'm travelling, and why and the next day i phone call from immigration saying i would get an email and to upload my documents via e-post. i submitted my documents and my plane ticket and 3 weeks later i got my RTD. I didn't submit any proof of why i need to travel urgently, just submitted a plane ticket.

Webform sent: June 22, 2022
Received Email / Call: June 23, 2022
Received RTD: July 18, 2022
