Have you written to your MP, or Immigration Minister or PM yet about the delay in your file? That delay sounds unreasonable.@senaghana my application is almost 18 months now and still no PPPR yet which I believe I will get it in a couple of days By August to be precise and the new update is, my wife went to see the lawyer today to which they’re drafting something down to send to AVO as a gentle reminder because my Medicals is expiring in Two days and my Passport expires in October FYI.

Regarding passport, it's definitely better to apply for new one for sure. IRCC says it has to be valid but does not have the 6 month validity clause. It just has to be valid. And they have discretion to even process PR with an expired passport if there are no issues relating to identity.Pele. I can imagine how tiring the journey has been. Have you requested for a enw passport though? Cos your passport has to be valid for 6 months before you submit it for ppr. And the process at the passport office these days can take up to 3 months except you seriously greAse palms.
I prAy for strength for you. It will end in praise

The 6 month rule is usually to do with the airlines where they require passengers to hold passports valid at least 6 months, like KLM. So when booking flights it's best to check with the airlines first.

PASSPORTS: Ensure you read and follow the points below:
I assumed that means your must be valid for at least 6 minths before you send to accra. At least thats the info i got and worked for me. Anyways i may be wrong but its better to be safe than sorry right.
- There is an individual passport for each family member accompanying you to Canada. Children must have their own passports.
- Each passport is valid for at least 6 months from the time you come for the visa.
