Why does IRCC not communicate? Problem with Study Permit easily fixed with communication.

[ProspectiveStudent]

Hello everyone,

I applied for my study permit in May 2022 from Bangladesh. Recently, I got my study permit approved but I also had to renew my passport. The passport I used for my study permit application expires in a few months. I got my passport request letter but I am confused about which passport to send for the visa stamp. Do I submit my old passport or my new passport? Or both?

I'm assuming I have to inform the IRCC by WebForm, but does anyone know how long it will take to process?
Do I submit my passport and inform them after? Or should I wait for a response from the IRCC before submitting my passport?

I tried talking to the embassy in Singapore and reaching out to VFS but to no avail. Why is Canada like this?

Thank you for your help!

Sincerely,
A Prospective Student

If I were in your shoes, I would do my part by raising a webform and send both the new and old passport to IRCC.

U have to send only ur new passport with the passport request letter...if u send both vfs dhaka will give u back the old passport..ur passport request doesnt have ur old passport number..its just used for identification purpose.i hope ur doubt is clear..i have done the same

As someone else here just said, you simply send your new passport. Don't wait for IRCC to reply to the webform.

Students should also use some logic. Why would you send your old passport when it likely expires before your studies start or right after your studies start? As others have already said just send in the new passport. No need to wait for permission.

Thanks, this is very helpful. I will just take my new passport and send a photocopy of it to IRCC via WebForm. Is that what you did? Did IRCC respond to the WebForm at all? Did you have any trouble at the border?

Thanks, again!
