Renew my Canadian Passport (Sponsor) after submitting Sponsorship application for Spouse

[kojirohyuga]

Hi guys,

I submitted my Sponsorship application for my Spouse a week ago (I am a Canadian).

Yesterday, without thinking, I went to renew my passport (my old passport, whose information is in my Sponsorship application, was cancelled at the Passport Office).

Did I make a huge mistake?
Do I need to worry, or should IRCC / CIC be able to check and see my new passport information on their end?

I'm aware about https://ircc.canada.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=052&top=4 which I will contact them as soon as possible after I have my new Canadian passport.

Nervous individual...

It's fine. Just update your application when you get your new passport.

It's ok, just update by webform when you have your new passport. As you're sponsor then it is not a big problem.

I'm not sure they even care about the sponsor's passport, beyond using it as way to confirm citizenship - and for that purposes won't matter that it's been cancelled/renewed.

That said, probably still best to update just in case, certianly won't hurt to do so.

same. As it’s only a fact to confirm sponsor’s citizenship. What happens if they don’t want to travel internationally lol.
