    PR Renwal - Simple Case

    Is a photocopy of the picture page of passport sufficient or is it worth photocopying every passport page. Also, do you list day trips to the US in your list of absences and what do you enter for number of days in such a case. Thanks

    PR Renwal - Simple Case

    Yeah, I have obviously checked that out, my question was related to supporting documents. The CIC link doesn't state that further proof is required other than following that guide and filling out that application form. I'm trying to see is that actually true.
