It takes about 12 months to process a permanent residency application for a spouse, if during this period the passport number changes for theinvited-to-Canada-spous, would this make the application time to start over?

Thanks!

I'm not sure of the answer to your question, but I will tell you that I'm in a similar situation. 
     I sent my paperwork in before I changed my last name on my US passport.  I received an entirely new passport with a new number.
     However, I did write immigration a letter with my application stating that I would be doing this.  My plan is to send in a copy of the new passport.  That was the advice given to me.

I changed my passport once during the process, and the process continued for me.

I waited until the Consular sent me the next correspondence, and when I responded to their request, which was sending in the FBI clearance, I sent an accompanying letter stating that I have a new passport, and I included photocopies of the first 4 pages of the passport.

Processed continued, and I received my visa in my new passport.

It takes about 12 months to process a permanent residency application for a spouse, if during this period the passport number changes for theinvited-to-Canada-spous, would this make the application time to start over?
