Citizenship - Online application

[Jknairps]

Hi,
I am planning to apply for my Canadian citizenship online next week. For the online application, the only documents asked (other than physical presence calculator and language proficiency) are 1. digital citizenship photograph, 2. two pieces of personal identification. For personal identification, if I am using my passport, I just require the biographical page of my passport. However, when my spouse applied for Canadian citizenship last month using the paper application, she attached copies of all pages of the passport having entries as a required document. So I am confused whether I need to attach all the pages of my current passport having entries as required for a paper application or just a biographical page of my passport would do as indicated for online application. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

It's indeed a different requirement regarding the passport pages you have to attach to your application. You only need to provide the bio page for an online application.
Some in the forum have reported that IRCC has required them at some point in the online application process to attach all the passport pages, and others suggest to attach them in the "additional documents" tab at the end of the application to avoid such hassle. You can do that if you want, but you don't have to and there's no guarantee that IRCC will ask (or not ask!) for something additional anyway. Speaking of experience: ages ago, aka before covid, the citizenship officer spent less than 10 seconds on my passport, the equivalent today would be that he wouldn't care about the additional pages...
