exactly 7 days for me. but they say it depends on where you are. if you live in a province, it might take few more days than the one living in the city.

my wife asked the same question............this is what they told her..........either you can recieve it at the address provide or you can pick it up at the nearest 2go, office, you have to enter it on the 2go slip during the interview....:thumbs:
