My name is Krumali Chokshi (Indian citizen, currently staying in seychelles) and I am the primary applicant. We received our Permament residence visa and our COPR is valid till 26th February,2019. I am planning to travel in first week of February and I have one query regarding my passport validity:

My passport is valid till 14th July, 2016 and I have my visa stamped in this passport. So is it mandatory for me to travel before six month of my passport validity in my case?? Or I have to apply for a new passport??

If I apply for a new passport, my visa and COPR documents will be valid from my old passport or I need to stamp them again??

Please advise me as soon as possible for me to take an immediate decision as we are sort of our time frame.

Do you have your dates right, or has this message been sitting in your drafts for a year now?

You don't need a new passport. You can travel on your current one anytime prior to COPR/visa expiry.
