LOL I know. What you have to do is when you go to the final step in the PP issuance procedure where the Assistant Director stamps your form etc you have to tell him to not cancel the passport as it has a valid visa in it. Then he will stamp another thing on it which says something like "new passport no. ---------- issued in lieu of this old passport"
Got it.
I will have to meet the assistant director I believe and explain to him "NOT TO PUT THE CANCELLED STAMP".
I Will have to see thru the procedure all the way to the end.

Brother, this thread is disturbing me though: ::)

Salam and Thanks to all here.

Yesterday I received my Passport with VISA (single entry, valid till 28/7/2016). I have plans to visit Toronto in May 2016 INSHAALLAH.

Sorry guys I don's know how to update timeline details but CIC received my documents in first week of Nov 2014 and yesterday I got my passport with VISA.

Currently I am not sure should I make Munich, Germany OR Canada my permanent home, but I pray to ALLAH SWT to decide best for me and don't put matters in my hand. Please remember me in your prayers.
I wish you all best of luck.

Thanks,
Asad
First of all many many congratulations to you for receiving of PR visa.

Could you please share your timeline of submitting application , receiving PER and receiving MR etc.

Did you send your application from Pakistan?

Lots of conflicting opinion in that thread. Best would be email the CIC and ask them for their advice. Quote the guidelines given in the thread you mentioned in your email so that CIC staff don't get it wrong.

Dear Zmaqsood,

Welcome back to Home. What about your pre-departure preparation??? I think you have made most of the things ready for you already. isn't that true?

It does not invalidate the visa. As i had visa which was valid for another 1.5 years in my old passport (not of canada though) and i had to renew my passport and i traveled without any hassle by carrying both passports pinned together. And Doc is right. If u have a valid visa they will not put cancelled stamp in it rather just a stamp mentioning a new passport is being issued in lieu of this one

Anyone with the back dated SLU received MR as yet? How much time difference between SLU to MR? Any one?
I have received MR with back dated SLU. Actually I received MR first and then after a few days my 2nd line was updated. Like others, the processing date as per my SLU is before my PER date.

Hope this helps.

That sounds fair.

"Its just that I will be travelling before my pp expiry but bcz of the airline 6 month rule i'll need to renew my pp"
I'll check with CIC though. (I hope I get their reply sooooon)

The email id will be the same cio sydney enquiry @... correct

Praising God for medical request that I will receive this week
My people that are still waiting, join me to praise God for what He will do for us this week

"My Hope is Built on Nothing Less"
by Edward Mote, 1797-1874

1. My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

2. When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

3. His oath, His covenant, and blood
Support me in the whelming flood;
When every earthly prop gives way,
He then is all my Hope and Stay.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

4. When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found,
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne!
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
