Hello!
If I have understood correctly I need to include a photocopy of the first two pages of my passport when we send the application (I'm talking about an outland spousal application, London VO and my husband is sponsoring me).
I have also read that later on they will ask for copies of all the pages of my passport, so my question is should I send them that right away or wait until they ask for it?

I sent the whole thing for both me (sponsor) and my husband (applicant). Reason being two: 1) like u said they ask for it later on and 2) I was showing all the passport entry/exit stamps in my passport, plus the visitor visa/ entry/exit stamps in my husband's passport.

I suspect that they'll ask for it anyway at the end, even if you send it at the start. They're looking for notations and such, and since applications take a while to process they will probably want a more recent copy.

It can't hurt to send it early, though. As tink23 stated, it shows all the entry/exit stamps from visiting Canada.

What if I just have my passport issued?
Because all I'm waiting for to send my application is my passport to be done. It will be all blank.

Thanks! =]

Does not matter when your passport is issued.At the time of application you need to send the first pages where all the details of the Applicant will be seen.After the application gets transferred to VO, they will request to send your passport for further processing of the Visa...My wifes passport is blank too and I did send them last month.....
