Hello,
This may be an obvious question but I just wanted to confirm. I got PPR yesterday and I'd like to send in the documents out today. The wording of the PPR e-mail is a bit confusing on what to send for passports.
I'm the main applicant Italian citizen (visa exempt) and my wife secondary applicant is Iranian citizen (visa required).
Do I understand correctly that we should be mailing the photocopy of my passport (bio page + any visa stamps page) and my wife's real passport in the mail (along with the photos and annex)? Or should we both send just a photocopy since the main applicant is from a visa exempt country?
From the PPR e-mail:
STEP 2: DETERMINE IF YOU NEED TO SUBMIT YOUR PASSPORT(S)
· Determine if you are holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to travel to Canada, by checking this website:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio.../visit-canada/entry-requirements-country.html .
· If you are holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need a visa to travel to Canada, you will need to submit the passport for you and for each accompanying family member. To avoid complications with international travel, it is recommended that your passport(s) be valid for at least 6 months. Your passport must have at least two blank pages. If a child is included on your passport, you must have one blank page per accompanying child. Please note that you STILL need to submit the passport even if:
o You have a valid Canadian temporary residence visa.
o You are a permanent resident of the U.S.A AND holder of passport from countries whose citizens need a visa to travel to Canada.
· If you are holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need an eTA to travel to Canada or a holder of passport(s) from the United States, you will need to submit one photocopy of the photo page and any pages containing amendments of the passport for you and for each accompanying family member. Please do not send your original passport(s). Your passport(s) should be valid for at least 6 months.
If you are currently residing in Canada and you intend to travel by air to another country prior to becoming a permanent resident, you will be required to apply and obtain an eTA prior to boarding.
