Got ITA, but passport with VFS for visitor visa, and don't have scans of stamped pages

[kushalagg]

Hi I have received my ITA on August 8th. I have all required document in order, except for my passport scan. I have the 1st and last page scan which shows the basic bio details, but do not have copies of the stamped pages and visa pages.

My passport has been submitted for visitor visa on 1st August.

Should I wait for passport to come back after decision on visitor visa. Or should I apply with all other docs, passport front and back scan.

And explain in LOE that I would attach other pages' scan after I receive passport from the visitor application.

I have got them done already. Police certificate I took in advance, Medical was done with passport colour copy and other id - aadhar card.

So are you suggesting I go ahead without the stamped and visa pages' copy and upload them later?

I think you should wait for the passport. You do not know the agent you may get assigned to can reject your application for that or they may ask for additional documentation. The choice is still yours.

You can go for that. I mean on CIC website its not mentioned, but I submitted the full passport (even blank pages). I did not want to take any chance.

Choice is yours.
