Notice: Canada Post Strike Impact on Cheque Payments

November 15, 2024

Due to the Canada Post strike, there may be delays in mailing out cheques to Passport recipients who have selected cheque as their payment method. To avoid disruptions, we strongly encourage you to work with your Passport agency to switch to Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) for direct deposit. If signing up for EFT is not feasible, please contact your Passport agency to arrange an in-person pick-up of your cheque. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this time.

Avis : Impact de la grève de Postes Canada sur les paiements par chèque

La grève de Postes Canada pourrait entraîner des retards dans l’envoi des chèques aux bénéficiaires de Passeport ayant choisi ce mode de paiement. Afin d’éviter toute perturbation, nous vous invitons fortement à contacter votre agence Passeport pour passer au transfert électronique de fonds (TEF) pour un dépôt direct. Si l’inscription au TEF n’est pas possible, veuillez contacter votre agence Passeport pour organiser un retrait en personne de votre chèque. Merci pour votre compréhension et votre coopération en cette période.
