Expiry of travel documents for issuance of COPR

[UKAN85]

Hello All,

I had got email for sending my and my family's passports for issuance of COPR on 18th October 2017. As per the email, my passport should be valid for atleast six months. In my case my passport is getting expired in May 2018, so I have six months but after visa stamping I need to travel to Canada to get PR card. For travelling also my passport should be six month valid.
So is it possible that after this stamping I renew my passport and travel to Canada with both old and new passport?

Any one who has faced the same issue, please suggest.

Thanks,
Anuj

You won't be allowed to renew if you have that much time left in your passport.
