I got visa and COPR but I should renew my passport before traveling to Canada, as it expire in 5 months.
Should I submit my new passport to NDVO and get the visa stamped on it? Also should COPR be updated with new passport number ?

Can anyone help me so that I will not run into any issues during immigration please..

You can get it renewed here in Canada as well through BLS

it should not be a problem as well if you renew it back home, but when you travel, i
do carry both of your passports...

Thank you for the response.
I should renew it from India itself coz passport should have minimum 6 months to expiry while landing in Canada.
So I will renew my passport, carry both old and new. Also COPR document needs no update I assume, because of this renewal.

Should be OK as well

The 6 month rule is only for visit visa and for certain countries

The Visa stamping should be on your new passport. So, once you get a new passport submit that for Visa stamping.
