It seems that the process has changed, as the city of Toronto no longer registers births. "As of November 2009, birth registration is processed by the Province of Ontario and not by the City of Toronto. You can use the province’s Newborn Registration Service, by linking to “How to register a birth in Ontario” at http://www.ontario.ca/en/life_events/baby/004436. This service also provides links to obtain a birth certificate and social insurance number. If you are travelling with a newborn and need a birth certificate quickly, you can request it through the province’s Newborn Registration Service. Details are on the website at: http://www.ontario.ca/en/residents/ONT06_019042. " Great summary, thanks!

I had my son on August 27th and did his birth registrations, applied for his birth certificate and his SIN card all on September 2nd (Tuesday). I received his birth certificate via purolator on the Friday!! It took only 3 days so I am assuming that is why they got rid of the travel letter option and only allow for passports for infants. That said...I have not done the passport application process yet and I am very concerned about meeting the expectations for his passport photo with him being so very young. Hope this helps! Veronica :) Hello

Nicolas - good point - no smiling babies! Shevy - let us know how it goes with the passport if you ever get it. Noel - I got messed up by the Ontario gov't website since it said 4 months ( or 3?) so I thought I had to get the travel letter. In actual fact the statement of birth was registered in 2 weeks.

The Ontario government website claims it can take up to 16 weeks (4 months!) to register the birth - receiving the birth certificate and applying for the passport are quick, smooth processes in comparison...but neither can begin until the registration takes place.
