Hey @legalfalcon,
My passport is expiring next month along with my BOWP status. Monday, 7 June, would be the 18th day waiting for COPR on the new PR portal after photo, address and declaration submission. If I apply to renew my passport now, do you know if:
1. I need to send a web form to update IRCC when I submit my new passport application?
2. Will it delay the CoPR even further?
Even if I get the COPR, would I still need to notify IRCC that I have a new passport for my PR card application?
I’m weighing the idea of just getting the new passport now, and, in doing so, complicates the process further, or if I should just wait till I at least have the COPR.
Thank you very much in advance!
If you have not received your COPR, then yes, you will have to update IRCC when you receive your new PP. However, if you have received your renewed passport, you do not need to update IRCc.
