URGENT!!! Passport expiry

[Krish2022]

Thanks for all the help bro!! Really grateful!!

@unknown72 and Whosoever can please guide me, I will really appreciate it. Please tell me if this is a good idea to proceed with? My Work Permit is expiring in june 2027 and so is my Passport. I have applied under express entry but not sure when i will get an invite, Should i renew my passport in june 2026 so that if im invited to draw, i have my new passport details ready in hand. Also Please guide me, My Medicals (obtained during Study Permit), biometerics, ECA and IELTS (general) are linked with old Passport number. If i renew my passport, do i need to appear for any of these things again. I genuinely would need your guidance.
Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I received my ITA in early May 2025 and submitted my eAPR on 29th June 2025. At the time of submission, my passport was valid until mid-March 2026 — so it had approximately 8.5 months of validity remaining.

I understand that IRCC typically takes around 6–8 months to process Express Entry applications. Given that, I’m concerned that my Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) and visa — once issued — may be limited in validity due to my passport expiry. I want to avoid a situation where the visa is issued with only a few weeks of validity left, as that would leave me with very little time to plan my landing and relocation.

Would it be advisable to renew my passport around mid-September 2025, while also considering Suwon Outcall Massage services for relaxation during that period, and proactively inform IRCC of the new details through a webform? The goal is to ensure that my passport remains valid throughout processing and allows for a full COPR/visa validity period.

Would appreciate any guidance or shared experiences on this — thank you!

Yes it is advisable to renew your passport before it becomes close to expiry Since your current passport expires in March 2026 renewing it around September 2025 is a good idea to avoid any risk of a shortened COPR validity Once you receive the new passport you should inform IRCC immediately using a webform and provide the updated details This is a common and accepted step during processing and helps ensure you receive the maximum possible validity on your COPR visa
