All eligible Canadians over the age of 16 can now renew their passports online, according to Immigration Minister Lena Diab. The change comes after the government launched a new digital system to make the process more convenient for citizens. The update allows individuals to apply for passport renewals without visiting a physical office, saving time and effort.
The new online system is part of broader efforts to modernize immigration services across Canada. Diab emphasized that the initiative aims to improve accessibility and reduce wait times for passport renewals. The system is expected to handle a large volume of applications, ensuring that Canadians can travel with ease.
The move follows months of preparation and testing to ensure the online platform is secure and user-friendly. Citizens are encouraged to visit the official immigration website for detailed instructions on how to apply. This development marks a significant step in Canada’s digital transformation of public services. (ca.news.yahoo.com)
