Am I seriously the first to review this Passport Canada location?
It all started about two weeks ago when I realized my passport expires this September so it's valid for under six months. Some countries aren't too keen to let you in with a passport on the verge of expiration, so I needed to get mine renewed on the double.
Since my passport still has some time on it, I could do the easier, faster application. For this you need: two copies of a picture, two references (not a guarantor, thank goodness), a filled out application and some moolah. I chose the 10 year option and got mine accelerated to pick up because, again, I need it returned to me in haste. The whole thing came to $180 and I was in and out in about 45 minutes.
Three cheers for travel!
