IMPACT – MEDIUM
The Canadian government has implemented new measures to reduce processing delays for new and renewal passport applications.
Key Points:
Additional Information: Those applying for new or renewal passports should expect processing delays due to an “unprecedented volume of applications and the obligation to impose in-person capacity limits” at processing centers.
BAL Analysis: Service Canada is seeing an increase of passport applications due to the lifting of COVID-19 travel restrictions around the world. Canadian citizens intending to travel abroad and in need of a new passport should renew their passport as soon as possible to avoid delays and complications.
