PR Renewal - confused about what documents to include?

In the document checklist of PR renewal, it is quite clear on what I need to add (especially secondary ID). But then when I read the instruction guide, it has no mention of a secondary ID. Should I follow the checklist, or the guide?
Oh, and in the guide it also mentions something about scanning all pages of the passport.
For what it's worth, here is what I was looking to add to the application considering date from today keeps me at 750 days outside Canada (as mentioned above):

  • [primary ID] I have my passport from India.
  • [secondary ID] Ontario G1 driver's license.
  • [proof of residences] Notice of Assessment for 2013 (Tax year says 2013, but Date says Jan 30, 2015... does that matter btw?)
  • [proof of residences] Notice of Assessment for 2014
  • [proof of residences] Some cellphone bills from 2013, 2014 and 2015.
  • [proof of residences] I also got a CBSA traveller history document from CBSA that shows the dates I was in and out that I am planning to include if you guys think it's a good idea

Any thoughts if I'm on the right path here (especially considering I'm not including all pages of passport)?
Thanks much!

There is no secondary document in documents list as well. Cell phone bills,notice of assessments doesnt guarantee that you are in canada. you might have worked for 3 months and earnd large amount.

why you dont want to include all pages of passport. If some stamp or report missed from CBSA they may verify from passport. Better option is to include your health records along with CBSA,passport

But if I put the passport pages, then no need for the health records, right?
I don't think I have time for health records to arrive because I need the card by Christmas so I can go out of the country around that time.

Great, thanks so much for all your help ramkris!

One last question, does it matter if the copies are made in full colour? Or is there some kind of a rule on how the copies should be made?
Also, page 23 has a sticker visa of another country that if I copy in colour - doesn't come out right and isn't legible. So I'm thinking of giving two copies - one colour and one grayscale for that particular visa page.

So, all copies made in colour except page 23 that has colour and grayscale copies.
Does that sound right?

Color copies are better option they might be checking entry and exit stamps of different countries .Mainly their interest would be towards canada.They might not care what other visas you hold

Ok, and just to make their job easy ... it's ok for me to include grayscale and colour copies of pages that aren't clear?
