My passport has arrived today. It was a total of 5 weeks from day of submission of the documents to the delivery of the new passport.

After a month and 4 days since the application, it finally changed to "Printing". No other statuses have come after day and no additional information. No idea how long will it take to "print" and if I will be notified when dispatched.

There seems to be a pattern here, though. Two people in this topic reported that their status changed to "Printing" exactly two days after the estimated issue date.

I'll report back if the same happens to me tomorrow.

One day past the estimated date and application is still under processing.

Has anyone had any luck? I honestly can't believe this lengthy process after having gone almost 3 years of citizenship application.

It boggles the mind. I have never seen such levels of inefficiency.

The inefficiency, disorganization, and lack of accountability baffles me. It's upsetting.

I received my certificate a few weeks ago, but I'm now battling with the passport application. It's insane. Almost three years of this.
