Hi Friends,

I am working in a state different from my permanent address. I am from Kerala (India), but in Bangalore (Karnataka, India) from 2010 for studies and work. I do not wish to change my passport address to my present address, as it is a temporary one (I have stayed in so many places in Bangalore in the last 7yrs. I have a rent agreement for the place where I am staying from last 9months).

I have my passport expiring in 2019. Also, I wish to add my wife's (married in 2016 June) name in my passport. As I have received the ITA, I think to do it on next week with the tatkaal scheme, which will take only 3 days to do. I will get my new photograph in my pp as well as the pp validity will get extended by another 10 yrs.


Now the queries are,

1. Will passport re-issue has a police verification?

2. Will the pp officer insist me to change the passport address from my present one to the current one (Bangalore)?

3. I have decided to apply for PCC (for CIC) after a week of getting the re-issued passport. Will the PCC get into trouble as my passport address is different from where I am staying currently? Will they suspect why I did not change my passport address to the present address upon re-issuing?

4. Or is it a better idea to continue with my present passport and renew it in 2019?

5. My wife's passport was taken after our marriage. The address given in her passport is her parent's address, but my name is given as spouse. Will her address cause any problem? I require many formalities to change her address in her pp, which I don't think I can do as we have ITA in hand and it will be risky to waste time. Would it be a problem if my wife's address is different from mine? in CIC???

Waiting for opinions and instructions from members, including seniors. ???

You cannot renew your passport yet. It can only be renewed 1 year before its expiry date.
Thank you.

I have a few more queries..

5. My wife's passport was taken after our marriage. The address given in her passport is her parent's address, but my name is given as spouse. I require many formalities to change her address in her pp, which I don't think I can do as we have ITA in hand and it will be risky to waste time.

Will her old address cause any problem? Would it be a problem if my wife's address is different from mine in CIC???

6. Is there any problem if my passport is not entered with my wife's name?

7. Suppose if I get the visa luckily, should I come back to India before the expiry of passport for renewing it?

8. Since the visa stamping for PR will be done in old passport, how to transfer it to the new one after renewing? Is it a troublesome procedure which takes months?


Please help

I had a similar experience, your passport in this case will have new expiry date which will be 10 years.

When you apply to particular city psk from any address, you will have to show the proof of address of the city of psk you are applying.

For adding spouse name, there will not be any police verification. However, the address will get changed to your current.

For spouse, i would suggest to get it done from the place mentioned in her passport if it takes lot of time for you. For you anywhere you feel comfortable.

At the end of the day, its good to have spouse name added to passport. but there is no such requirement from IRCC.

I believe you can get a new passport before one year to expiry if you change your address. That's the only option I know. I assume you should also be able to get it on adding spouse name, but check PSK FAQ on that. Yes police verification is done after the fact. That is, in case of passport renewal you will get the passport first and then the verification process will start. The passport you get is subjected to successful verification of your address.

If you visit Bangalore PSK, you need to produce proof of your current residence and you have provide details of last 1 year of residence. The new passport will have your current residence as address.
3. I have decided to apply for PCC (for CIC) after a week of getting the re-issued passport. Will the PCC get into trouble as my passport address is different from where I am staying currently? Will they suspect why I did not change my passport address to the present address upon re-issuing?
Post passport renewal, you will get the PCC on same day. My advice to you is get the new PP from Bangalore with your current address.
4. Or is it a better idea to continue with my present passport and renew it in 2019?
Having spouse's name on your PP comes handy at a lot of places and would help her get the PCC same day as you even if she has a different address on her passport but has your name on it.
5. My wife's passport was taken after our marriage. The address given in her passport is her parent's address, but my name is given as spouse. Will her address cause any problem? I require many formalities to change her address in her pp, which I don't think I can do as we have ITA in hand and it will be risky to waste time.

In my case, my PP is on current address with spouse name mentioned and her passport had different address but my name mentioned as spouse. We both got PCC the same day.

If you have sufficient time, get a new passport with your spouse's name added and on current address.

Hi

dexternmn,
Maverick28,
ParulB &
vishalg,

Thank you for the inputs.

Hope even if I am not able to renew the passport now its fine for CIC requirements, and if it get expired while I am abroad, it can be renewed by visiting the Indian Consulates.

Right?

Hello @vishalg and @Maverick28

The permanent address on my passport is different from where I'm residing now. When applying for PCC on the website it is throwing an error saying that the regional passport offices are different in present and permanent address and not allowing me to proceed. Any idea how we can get around that?

Create a new login on passport website and try again. It should work.
