No, you need to scan all pages of the passports that you held during eligibility period.

Thanks. So my eligibility period is from Jan 2016 to Jan 2021. I have scanned copies of this period but i travelled in July 2021 also. So, should i submit july 2021 page also? I thought july 2021 is out of eligibility period so no point in submitting that page right?

You need to submit *all* pages of *all* the passports you had during this period. Please read the instructions sent by IRCC, they are very clear about this.

It takes about 30 to 60 days per the timeline on the spreadsheet to hear about the oath following the test. I took mine november 2nd and i am still waiting as well but not worried as per the spreadsheet everyone who completed the test didn’t get news or oath until 30 days, usually 2 months after completing the test. You should hear back in January per the current trend and be scheduled for the oath in like March/April, again if trend remains the same.

Thanks. So, all the pages from Jan 2016 to Jan 2021 which is my eligibility period.
No, how many passports did you hold between January 2016 and January 2021? Grab these passports, and scan every single page of them. Translate all stamps that are not in English or French. It does not matter if the stamp is outside the eligibility period, you NEED to translate it.
Hopefully it is clear now.

Sorry, I think i confused you guys. So, I hold only one passport from 2015 to 2025. My eligibility is from Jan 2016 to Jan 2021. So I have scanned all the pages of my passport when i was applying for citizenship only which was in feb 2021 but recently i travelled in the month of July and November 2021, which is not available in the scanned copy. Should i include those pages or stamping also? I thought those stampings were not necessary as its outside the eligibility period. Did you get what i am trying to say?

If you only had one passport then: scan all pages of the passport and forget about dates as they do not matter.

They sent the request now, so they are expecting you to scan all pages of the passport now and send according to their instructions. It doesn't matter if you went on trips before or after you sent your application, they just need you to scan all pages of the passport and translate, if needed.

It's a simple request. You are making it more complicated by including factors that do not influence it.
