Dear All , need advise .
my spouse has two passports . one is old which is valid till June 2013 but she also got the renewed one which is valid til 2018. but i have submitted only new passport of my spouse along with application at CIO. can i also submit old one at VO or it is ok.or will create any trouble ?
please advise
Pakistani nationals cannot have two valid passports at the same time. When a new passport is issued, second page of the previous passport is stamped with a statement " Fresh passport issued in lieu of this passport on xxx date". Irrespective of the expiry date on old passport, it becomes void with this stamp.
As part of the application process in FSWP we were only required to send a copy of the biodata page of current passport, which you have already done.
You should always keep old passports in your record rather join the two passports with a staple. When, hopefully, you receive passport request both passports shall be submitted to VO.
At this point in time there is absolutely no need or requirement to submit the old passport or its copy to VO.
