No. No outage or delay is open on CBSA’s or CFIA’s systems. ### How long does CBSA take to answer a filing? On average 1.8 minutes to accept or reject it, over the last 24 hours; it is usually 2.0. During a CBSA delay, acknowledgements, rejects and release notices can take hours; the notice gives CBSA’s estimate. ### What should I do during an outage or maintenance? Follow CBSA’s System Outage Contingency Plan (SOCP). CBSA keeps clearing goods under its contingency procedures while its systems are down. ### Should I resend messages CBSA hasn’t answered? No. If you have already sent an EDI document, don’t send it again: resending adds to CBSA’s backlog and can slow processing further. Acknowledgements, rejects and release notices (RNS) may arrive late while a delay is open. ### What do highway carriers need during maintenance? Give drivers two copies of the paperwork they present on arrival. CBSA accepts paper during maintenance and for two hours after it ends, and issues no penalties for data not sent in that time. ### When can I go back to normal? When the notice shows Resolved. CBSA’s closing notice tells clients they can return to normal procedures. Sources: service notices from the Canada Border Services Agency and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency; Adhoc.
