Hello

I applied for my canadian citizenship and my file is in process.Now my Indian passport is expiried and i got the new passport.

Do i need to notify my new passport number to CIC callcenter or immigration.
I read some where that 4 year prior to the application sign date is taken into consideartion and any changes after that,no need to notify CIC/Immigration

Can some one advise.

You still have the old passport in hand, right?
I don't think you have to notify them as long as you have the old passport with you.

I have the same situation as you. If your passport expired after you applied citizenship, you don't have to notify CIC. Just bring all of your new/old passport to the test/interview.
