I think you should send a mail to the embassy in accra telling them of the situation you have and the urgency in it. They will better respond and advise you on what to do.

Do not be scared to send a mail to the embassy. It will not affect your application as long as you do NOT make a formal request to withdraw your application.

I sent a mail yesterday and i got a reply from the embassy today that if i require my passport i have to withdraw my entire application. I don't know if i should do that because this is 7weeks and no medical mail yet. So confused right now.

You should send a mail to the embassy informing them of the new development since you signed the VFS questionaire where you were asked if you will not need your passport in the next 3 months.

According to the FAQs section on VFS website, applicant wanting to withdraw their application/passport can follow the following steps:


Send an email directly to accra.immigration@international.gc.ca

With "URGENT - I wish to withdraw my passport" on the subject line.

The email address of the sender must match that of the clients email on the application or the request will not be actioned.

The embassy will initiate the withdrawal of your application/passport and the return of your international passport to the VAC.

And No, it will not affect your application, once a final decision is made, you will be requested to re-submit the passport again within a time frame.

I called vfs office to ask if I can get my international passport without it affecting my application and the lady that answered me said if I request for my international passport I have automatically ended the application process.

Hello Everyone,
I am new on this thread and I urgently need you guys advice.
I submitted my application, paper route and it is 6weeks already. My company just informed me that I would need to go on a business trip to Vietnam for 8days at the end of this month and my international passport needed for the visa application to Vietnam is at cic Accra. Should I write to request for my international passport and would it affect my application?
