I used passport as a piece of ID and it was accepted. Also you can use your health card (even with recent date) as it is no longer a RQ trigger.

What else other than PP you are planning to add? Province card? I suppose you don't have a drivers license yet, correct?
No, i am worried it will sound as I was away and got new health card. They renew over phone and so i have no proof that it was lost. What you think?

Yes, i dont have driver licence; i have province card.

I suppose you can use copy of province card too because you don't have a drivers license. Did you contact CIC to confirm that?

I think people who don't have drivers license have province card. Correct me if I am wrong.

I know I can use province card; but question is whether to use health card or not that I lost? i am worried it will sound as I was away and got new health card. They renew over phone and so i have no proof that it was lost. What you think?

if you are concerned about RQ, use province card's copy (both sides) and your indian passport's (current valid one) copy of all biographical pages as a ID.

In Ontario, one who don't have driver's licence can get photo ID by visiting service Ontario($ 20 fee apply+they take photo at counter). would be delivered at home address in couple of weeks. Ontario Photo ID card is same as DL as far as official photo identification is concerned
Rev: NOBODYLIKEME provided info stand correct ($35+ a month lead time)

its your personal decision. You have following options:

1. pp + health card
2. pp + province photo id card
3. photo id card + health card

#2 seems to be good choice. when was the province photo id card issued?
