The section you mentioned in your previous post (13.15) applies to temporary residents (visitors, students, workers, and permit holders) and not permanent residents landing for the first time (section 12 of the document). TR visas are usually multiple entry and hence makes sense for them to be valid even after expiry of passport (though some countries like Singapore do not allow this).

However, I have been reading through all the comments on this topic ::) and just want to add that there are a few members of this forum, who had renewed their passports after getting COPR and have already landed successfully. I would however not recommend this at all, you should always inform your VO about such changes and once the visa officer acknowledges that it is okay for you to travel on the new passport, you should carry that email as proof at the time of landing. You never know what kind of CBSA officer you will encounter and he/she might give you unnecessary grief at time of landing.

Regards,

As long as you have valid visa & valid passport (no matter if visa is in old passport) no VO can stop you from entering/landing. However do your research before you act.

Unrelated to this discussion, but the comment you made about no VO can stop you from landing, is not correct. For almost every country I can think of immigration act (of that country) says visa does not guarantee entry into the country. Secondly, the name "Confirmation of Permanent Residence" is a bit misleading, as getting the COPR does not guarantee permanent residence status in Canada and the CBSA officer at Canadian airport is the final authority that grants you the permanent resident status (by allowing you to land). He/She can still deny you entry or put a condition on your PR at his/her discretion (provided he/she can justify their decision should you go to court against this decision).

The reason I am highlighting this is that I am a frequent traveler and have seen many people get into arguments with immigration officers on such issues and the outcome is not always good for them. The reason for this problem everyone assumes "immigration officers are experts on immigration policies of their country" and this is not true. Like we don't know everything about our own fields, similarly immigration officers don't know everything, especially things they have not encountered before. It is always good to carry documentation proving your case (even if it is just a printout of the immigration website) if there is something slightly unusual about your circumstances.

But this is just me, a lot of people are just carefree and don't really care till something like this hits them.

VO will verify the documents through his / her own sources.

Good day guys.

I would like to ask your opinion on which is better to apply on my own or with the help of Immigration Consultant in Dubai?

If I will apply on my own ( meaning no Representative) , am not so sure what to do.
If any one has helpful tips/guidelines for me to start with I will deeply appreciate if you could share.
Thanks & God Bless

Guys I have a fresh word from LVO, regarding Valid Visas in Expired PAssport

The visa shall be considered invalid if an expiring passport is renewed, however there is an option to apply for re-issuance of visa and CoPR once a new passport is issued. This will cost 30 AED per head...and this will automatically requires the reissuance of VISA for an entire family....

The manual posted in the website of CIC is valid only for holders fo temporary Visas....

Now my concern is, I am planning to land anytime soon in Canada just to satisfy the landing period requirement....We might stay there for a week or two....But how long should I stay there just to facilitate our application for PR Card and Healtd card and SIN? It may take weeks for issuance and I hope it is allowed for relatives there to receive it, and they will just send it to us in Dubai....

I hope you guys can advice, especially those who have recently experience it...

thanks...
