Yay finally Bill-6 is coming to be implemented! I am already preparing my citizenship application.

I just read the whole instructions regards to citizenship application on CIC website (although it is for the old rules, most of supporting file requirements won't change) and have a question: Do I only need to provide a full-page photocopy of my passport? I notice the instruction only says to provide the bio pages of your passport (it doesn't say full pages colour photocopy of passport).

The thing is I don't want to provide the full pages copy of my passport because there is an internal processing printing error on the observation page of my passport. I need to explain what happened there... To avoid hassles, can I only provide the bio page as stated in the instruction?

Thanks in advance. =)

Only copies of biographical pages need to be submitted with the application. However, during the interview, the office may scan the entire passport and see the observation you don't want to be seen...

Haha thanks. I just saw you reply to me in another thread... =D so I guess I am gonna provide bio pages copy at this moment. I am curious how could CIC verify when did I leave Canada before. CBSA has my entry records but what about exit records of Canada?

There is an ongoing thread on CBSA records

It has some good information on this regard!
