RE: Please don't travel before you receive your new passport

      My passport is expired/is about to expire and I need to travel soon. I live in the United States. How do I apply for a new passport?

 

Canadian Government Offices in the U.S. do not/not accept passport applications. Whether residing in the US temporarily or permanently, the holder must apply for a new passport by mail to Canada or in Canada in person.
