Federal Government and Passport Fees

passport fees: Recently released figures show Canadians paid $462.5 million in passport fees last year, but it cost the government only $256.5 million to produce the necessary documents, according to 660 News. We are not forecasting any change to passport fees to cover revolving fund requirements at this time, Caron said and A hike in passport fees has turned out to be a cash cow for the federal government, but Canadians won t be getting any cash back as a result. The way Passport Canada funds are managed allows it to simply bank the rest, Citizenship and Immigration spokesperson Nancy Caron said in an email. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
