Those looking to renew their Canadian passports face a longer than usual wait to get the process completed.
Millions of Canadians are attempting to renew the vital travel document as Service Canada is reporting that 4 million applications are expected this year.
They have hired over 600 new staff members in an attempt to handle the increase.
Many with plans this month have waited too long to get it done with the current average wait time for a renewal sitting at about 40 working days.
