Passport return in a TRV application

[kevin901208]

My TRV application is finally approved today (checked on MyCIC). However, I still cannot track my passport online on Canada Post website. Does anyone know how long it takes to have the passport back at hand? I have a flight next Tuesday and thus the time is so urgent! I'm considering going to Ottawa visa office to get back my passport in person. Is there anyone who has successfully done this before?

If you can't track it, probably means it hasn't been send out OR it has JUST been mailed so it takes at least half a day to get it updated in the system.

I'd say it's probably too close to call regarding whether you'd get it back before next Tuesday. Where are you right now? if inside Canada - xpresspost takes about 2 days.
