To everybody complaining about having to go multiple pages for answers, it is not just because of congrats and stuff like that. It is mainly because of the sheer number of forumites in this thread, which is a great thing! So there is no point in complaining. [size=10pt][size=10pt]Instead what you can do is turn your notification ON through your profile so that you can get notified any time someone answers or comments on your questions. Easy![/size][/size]

Well said.... please turn on your notification, so there's no need go multiple pages to get answers for your questions.

Hi insanbakulaw,

When you renewed your passport on June, 20th , did you inform CIO of you new passport number? Because when you renew it, your previous PP is invalidated.

like I have said before, the old passport becomes invalid for TRAVEL. But it has absolutely no effect on your application with CIC. You can inform your visa office after your get PER or after the visa office send you AOR/MR whenever they ask for the update.

Not impossible. It is call center. From today, they will say NO.

Correct me if i am wrong. there was someone from the community who got confirmation from CIC through call center and they said FSWP will be active till 2015 april. I am not sure who he was but there was confirmation for sure!!

Spartan2,
I get a hang of what namaste, Century and others are saying.
The central point is - your passport is not cancelled or anything it is just invalidated and a new one is issued. So basically, this should not be an issue even if CIC verifies PP(dont know if CIC does that or it is done at VO end).

So, pls ignore the junk i wrote below and renew your passport as soon as you can

Thanks namaste, Century - this is my learning for today.

Spartan2,
As I said earlier, the renewal is partially dependent on the time that you would need to allow the renewal process to complete.
Ex- if you are sure that it will be done in a month's time, may be you should wait for around says 60-80 days before the expiry and get this done.

It is also partially dependent on the expected PER date. Based on my estimates(mind you estimates!), you could receive your PER around 30-40 days from now(Nov end). So if that comes out good, you would probably need the renewed passport by Dec-end to Jan-end based on 1 month of period of VO request and submission time period.

All in all, Applying after receiving PER or after a week or 2 of your CC charge looks ideal.
As a general rule, it is always a good practice to have the travel document renewed before the last 6 months of the expiry period.

Regarding the eligibility criteria, I didnt find anything. So, I believe there is no such requirement - but wanted to double check with others as well.

All the best!

Thanks Vijay, But I noticed its hard to get and take long time if you are not citizen or Green Card holder. I remember I applied for my parents they have Green Card their report came in 5 days. and we used channeler. Sad I need to apply to FBI straight and it will take more time...hmmm.. no worries.

Hi Century / i435,
You mean renew it now, even before getting charged or receiving the PER?
I am wondering the best moment to do it: Now or after receiving the PER (being optimistic and believing everything will go fine) when I can handle the matter directly with my local VO. I am from Brazil.

I am concerned with what i435 mentioned about any potential requirement at the first step with CIC though. if they require 6 months validity date, the will return my application (and I will lost my shot).
on the other hand, if I renew the passport now, my previous passport will become invalid and when CIC does the first check, they will find an invalid passport and might return the application too... ?

That's scaring me...

I beg to differ...my point is when CIC does the check, it will be check on "exception / flagged / list" or their own database of visa issued / denied list....and not on active passport records database of the Govt Of Brazil. I doubt if a country will share their entire pp holders to any external agency! Just for argument sake if we proceed on that line of thought assuming they have some special treaty, if they check with Brazilian government, obviously, the entry will read "Cancelled for Reissue / without Prejudice"..

So best option is to keep enough hard / scan copies and apply for new passport while awaiting cc charge, as the old one will be having the "canceled" in the interim, if CIC ask for some additional copy of passport.

All the best!

They can announce new MI anytime they want.

.

Yes they can but Chris Alexander tweet that



Question: When are we going to know detailed Express Entry Process? #AskAlexander gobu.me/1fGIHOK


Answer from Chris Alexander #ExpressEntry is explained on canada.ca! First profiles can be made Jan 1! #AskAlexander gobu.me/1fGIHOK


So that means he is going to announce set of rules on Jan 1, 2015, and hopefully he will also announces changes related to other ongoing Immigration programs if any.

Hi Spartan;

Now you are reminding me the world cup semifinal a lot. ;D ;D ;D

[harryp]

what would CIC do with applications received in November they have a processing time of approximately 3 months for PER, Any clue ?

They put a lockin date on application on the day application is received at CIO. So even application received on last day of FSW 2014 program will be safe.
