Others can comment/correct but as far as issuing a study permit should not I believe anyway make any difference given your passport still valid through the course completion. As for a PGWP then of course you will need a new passport before you apply and obviously the best solution would be to apply for a new passport in your home country before travelling to Canada given for some countries it can be a challenge to apply from outside of home country something to allow for time wise

Not sure why you posted this in CEC when it is an international student question.

sir, the problem is that once i apply for a new passport my passport number will change. so that i wrote ielts with old passport. so i really tensed that it will affect to my visa. the miss match which they found may be a chance for visa rejection. What would i do?
