I went to Immigration this morning and needed a new letter from my employer (didn't like the wording and wanted a chop). So I am bringing the new letter back this afternoon. The officer kept my passport- will that be until approval or can I get it back this afternoon? I need to travel next week. If they need to keep it, can I just withdraw the application and file it after I travel? That would be close, submitting on 27 December for renewal needed by 10 January...
I didn't recall that they needed the passport the last time I extended...
Thanks!
