Hi All,
Did anyone scan their entire passport pages for online application, I held 2 passports during my 5 year eligibility period. Do I need to just upload the bio page or all pages of these passports.
Big thank you to all who are providing their valuable suggestions. Good luck to all Sept Applicants.
Cheers
Ron

No, not the entire passport. Besides, wasn't that just a travel document proof? How can an expired one be used?

I'm still waiting for my AOR (I applied in June this year) but what I've heard from other people on other similar threads, the acknowledgement of receipt comes via email.

Good luck!

Hello,
I need some advise here on the passport Validty.
My Indian Passport is expiring in the month on November 2021. Can I apply for citizenship now or should I renew my passport first and then apply for Canadian Citizenship. Do we have any passport validity criteria for applying for Canadian Citizenship?.(Like passport should be valid for 6 months etc)
Thank you in Advance!!
Kamal!!

I think you can,. It will take IRCC to process citizenship apps about 12 months so once you get a new passport update your application by sending them webform and scans of your new passport. This is my opinion.

Hi everyone, I applied this month. I have a general question - when would it be advised to actually start studying for the citizenship test. Obviously it's good to do so early, but I find that it makes more sense to do in-depth studying closer to knowing whne you'd actually take the test. Is it suggested to wait until you have the AOR (and then do you get a sense of how long you'd have before being called for a test)? Seeing how much delays there are likely to be with not just COVID, but the election as well - I don't think it would be anytime soon but having a sense of timelines is helpful. Thanks!

I applied online and uploaded the bio pages with the passport details.. Under additional documents, I added full passport scans for my new passport and expired passport ( I had 2 passports during my eligibility period). Even if this is not a requirement now, they do ask for this at a later date and you have to send in your complete passport scans. Have two friends that applied earlier this year and completed test recently and right after their test, they were asked to submit full passport scans.
