Hello,

I received an ITA and now on documents submission step and I have couple of questions.

1. Do I just need to submit first and last page of the passport or do I need to submit all the pages?
2. I also have my expired passport and renewed passport, so do I need to submit copies of both passport?
(first and last page of both passports or all the pages of both passport)

Any help would be great, kindly advise
All pages of all passports, even the blank pages. And check 5 times as I missed my chance because of a missing blank page !!

Note im applying directly under express entry.

I checked the cic website it states below :

•A clear and legible copy of the biographical data page of a passport or travel document must be provided

it does not say to upload all the pages, I heard that we only need to upload all the pages only if you are applying through OINP.

kindly clarify my confusion

1)The instructions say you must submit the bio page and all pages with visas, stamps and markings.

2)They also say you must submit a vilid travel document, they do not ask for the old passports. So this is optional.

"You must submit a legible copy of your valid travel document which you will use to travel.

If you have a passport, you must provide a copy of:

the page that shows your birth date and country of origin, and
any pages with stamps, visas or markings.


If you do not have a passport and must use another travel document, it must be issued by a government and include your:

name,
date of birth,
document number,
citizenship or residency status,
photo, and
expiry date (if applicable)."

This is a quote from the instructions page of the PR application document check list.

HI,

I got my ITA and need to get my medical done, however, the authorized medical center requires a UCI to perform a medical check. On the ITA I only have the EE number there is no UCI number. From where can i get this information.
That number should be for other PR stream where CIC sends you an instruction to go for medicals. Express Entry requires Upfront Medicals therefor you only provide them your EE number. A lot of medical centers get this confused so you will need to explain this to them.

See the link below confirming this:

All the best.

yes. After getting ITA you need to book for medical tests on designated centers by IRCC. It's a mandatory document for submitting eapr.

By transcripts are you referring to documents or academic transcripts?

If you are referring to letters, both are ok so it's a matter of preference. However, IMO, Dear Immigration Officer is more personal.
