Want to extend Temporary residence of my wife but she has no stamp in her passport

[Dv79]

Hi everyone,

Been coming to this site for a while and have found so much valuable information. I have a question in which I do not see an answer to, so I decided to register in order for me to ask this.

My wife is here in Canada as a temporary resident. We will like to extend her stay. There is about 3 months left until her status expires. My question is she did not receive a stamp in her passport when she arrived at Pearson international, She used a kiosk and I see that now they do not put stamps in passports. I notice one of the things they require for the extension application is a picture of the passport with the stamp in it. Since she does not have one, what do we do? Do we just not include this and they will know what her original entry date is because everything is all stored electronically these days? I'm really curious and I want to ask this question now in case there is something else I need to do before the time comes to apply for the extension.

I also want to thank all the people here who contribute and provide important, detailed information to all the questions posed on this site. I really do appreciate this community very much.

Physical stamping of passport has long been discontinued by Canada both for entry as well as for exit.My family has been here multiple times on a TRV and have never had their passports stamped.
It seems that they stamp your passport when CBSA wants to limit a visitors stay or when a student or a temporary worker arrives in Canada.
So if your wife's passport hasn't been stamped it indicates that she has been given a 6 months stay. If your wife's passport has been stamped with an exit stamp from your home country you can submit a copy of that page or you can attach a copy of her air ticket and a letter of explanation in the optional document section of your online application.
Hope that helps.
P.S. One can always request the CBSA for a physical stamp in your passport.
