Guys,

I have two passports. Both are valid. Just one is about to expire and could be valid for less than 6 months when I submit my e-APR post-ITA. Is that an issue? Because the passport from where I live will only expire in 10 years and I consider that one as my main passport for the PR application.

Thanks.

No, it will not be an issue. Under Passport/National ID section mention details of both the valid passports. In the passport upload section you can opt to upload both the passports, as far as I remember, the instructions only asks you to upload the pages of the valid passport which you would be using to travel to Canada.

OK thanks! Now another thing: I have most of my travel stamps in that passport which is about to expire. So don't I need to upload scans of my second passport as well?

You can upload that as well.

OK great, thanks! So I don't need to fear that they will require that both passports need to be valid for 6 months or more.
