TWO PASSPORTS ISSUE | Please advise

[CanadianDev]

Hello dear friends,

I have a small issue and I would like your input on this:

I am in post ITA stage at the moment. Before ITA I had a passport which was almost about to expire, so once I received ITA I went for passport renewal. I now have a fresh passport with 10 year validity but of course the passport number is changed. My question is:

1) In my application I need to upload scanned copy of passport, do I scan and upload both of them?
2) My passport number before ITA and post ITA will be different. Though the new one clearly mentions the old passport number, I hope this is not an issue?

Thanks so much for your answers.

I'm in the same situation! I sent my passport in for renewal a few weeks ago and received my ITA last week. I expect to receive my new passport in the next 1-2 weeks. I'd assume we can just update it and include in the letter of explanation that we renewed our passport at the time of the ITA, but interested in other answers.

I though I was the only one.... My passport expires on August 7 so I decided to get a new one but guess what ? My medicals will be done with my old passport.. I was thinking of applying with the new one and then write an LOE for this.... can we put more than one passport info there ? if we can, I guess we could do this as well...

Just upload both and explain the situation in a LOE.

Nothing to be concerned of.

I don't know if I have a photo of the old one. What then?

Interesting to see that many people have this same issue.

So we upload both the passports and explain it with LOE. Cool. Thanks so much

The new one should have details of the old passport right?
I believe that should do. I am however, not an expert like many others are here. Would be good to hear from someone more experienced.

You mean the passport right ? In our country when you apply for a new one the passport number changes completely thats why I was not sure which one to apply with ... sorry if I got your question wrong
