my passporrt HAD BEEN seized by etobicoke CIC.

NOW, i can get my passport back, and the CIC officer told me that she will help me to get it back.
 
But, ONE month has been passed already and i get mothing from anybody......
MY QUESTIONS ARE:
how does CIC RETURN my passport via CBSA or GTEC? I mean what will they do?
How long does it takes?Evil Smile
 
 
my case:
applyed refugee, married, apply family class, AIP, DM, now the passport is needed for landing.....

Call this number (905) 405-3500 to confirm that your passport is at 6900 Airport Rd, take your refugee file, the Notice of Seizure and THE LETTER FROM IMMIGRATION Re: SPONSORSHIP requesting for your passport for your landing, show it to the receptionist and they will make arrangements for you to meet with an officer, who will give you back your passport on that same day, after signing documents that you got it back from them.
 
CONGRATULATIONS Clap!!! I know that feeling.

Well, that was the process that I followed, because of my lawyer's advice; according to him, the passport was to be recovered by myself from CBSA Airport Road for my landing.   He told me that eventhough they can see everything on the computer screen, they don't make arrangements to transfer your passport to your landing office, and that to avoid any risks or second appointments, it was better for me to go and get it directly from them, and so that's what I did.
 
Any how... YOU ARE CLOSER THAN MANY HERE AROUND Wink!

Congratulations.  My husband went through the same thing.  But we took care of the retrieval of the passport by requesting it from CBSA and in turn they forwarded it to CIC Scarborough and the passport was released by hand delivery to my husband, that is my husband attending the Scarborough office.
 
Very happy to hear good news in this forum these days.  Congratulations!!!
