Hi :)

My passport expire is March.2018 and I have applied Family Sponsorship.

I haven't got open work permit yet. but I think OWP expire will be March.2018 as my passport.

So If I change my old passport to New , Should I call to CIC?

I am pretty sure I have to apply other OWP before expired old one. (It might cost $255...again)

I am worried about Sponsorship going to mess up If I change new passport .

Please help me When I change passport what should I do if I am processing on OWP and Spnosorship.

Thank you for read about this.!

Have a great day!!

You have no choice to inform CIC if you do decide to apply and receive a new passport. I don't believe (not 100% sure) that you can even land as PR with an expired passport.

Hi

Yes, your OWP will only be valid until March 2018. You need to update IRCC when you get a new passport. This will have no effect on your PR app. If you update your passport before the OWP is issued, it's possible that it will be issued for the normal validity.
