Hello members,

I just realized that i might have made a mistake on my application on the requirement for 2 pieces of ID.
I have included a copy of my Alberta Drivers License as the ID but have also provided a copy of the biographical pages of my Indian passport(Not attached as ID proof, but copies of Passports held in the last 5 years). Made only one copy of the passport. Will this suffice the requirement for second piece of ID even though i made only one copy?
Have also included a copy of my PR card and a copy of COPR for reference purposes. Can this lead to my application being returned? Thoughts?

Your Driver's license is sufficient and you do no need to send an additional copy of you passport pages. Same copy will be considered as your 2nd ID.

Following are the guideline about ID requirements on cic website;

photocopies of two (2) pieces of personal identification.

Examples of identification you can use include:

  • a copy of the biographical page of your passport/travel document (as requested above and also can be one (1) of your pieces of personal identification)
  • driver’s licence
  • health insurance card
  • senior citizen identification card
  • age of majority card
  • foreign identity documents, such as a passport or government issued identification documents
I hope it clears the doubt. Cheers

No should be good as you have attached a copy of your passport and it is accepted as a proof of identity. So you should be good. Hope that helps! Thank you.
 
Hi all,
Should I submit certified or notorized photocopies of documents? i.e, passports etc?
 
The instruction guide says "clear and legible photocopy".
So I guess
So that means no need to get documents certified. I just dont want them to return my application because I didnt send certified true copies.
Thank you!
