natdm Posted June 10 Report Posted June 10 Anyone know what the turnaround time is on a CANPASS application? Just submitted them for my wife and I a week and a half ago (maybe two?) and waiting to hear back. I've heard it could be up to 5 weeks, but does anyone know if it's typically sooner or later than that? Is there a page where you can check the status? I can't seem to find anything like that. Quote

I renewed mine two years ago (basically a new application) and it only took about 2-3 weeks, however, they called me for the fee… no idea how much longer it would take if I didn’t happen to take that call. There isn’t any way to check status or really get help with anything. The CANPASS system has been ~50% helpful and 50% PIA for the time Ive maintained it and used it. Most egregious is the randomness with which the border agents follow their own rules. I was told in no uncertain terms that my aircraft was at risk of being confiscated because I was using CANPASS rules and the “CANPASS people don’t know what they’re doing.” Other times it was great. Good luck! 1 Quote
