Dear Senior Fellows
My Immigrant visa is valid until 5th May,2013. Me and my whole family will be landing on 11th Jan.2013 at Canada (Vancouver) for the first time. My Pakistani passports will be expiring on 23rd May, 2013. Can I renew the passport from Pakistan now and then leave for Canada or its not wise to do it now. Some one told me that your passport with Immigrant visa should not be cancelled until you land there.
Today,I visited the Passport office at home station, they told me that we can issue you an urgent passport in ten to 15 days and will not cancel this old passport. They will stamp it & I will attach it with the new one. So please advice what should i do. What is law ( passport applicable) for landing.?
Allah Hafiz!
you can renew it, your old one will be valid, there is no issue, just attach with the new one. but now a days passport waiting time is too much, apply with urgent fee, and make a deal with an agent then you will get your passport in a week, agent rate is 5000 to 7000 excluding urgent fee.

Dear I am on the same boat. My Passport is expiring on 12th OCT, 2013 and I am planing to land in Jan, 2013 at Calgary. My plan is first give landing, getting PR card, SIN etc and then renew my passport from Consulate General of Pakistan in Canada. As I don't want to take risk of losing my old passport with visa or any delays.

I also received the invitation but its on saturday i.e. 22nd Dec at Hotel Mehran Karachi
You can go on current passport to canada and then u can get ur paki assport renewed at pakistani embassy. It takes 20 working days and the fee is around 68 dollars. Theres nothing to worry about. Plus the visa for canada is one time entry so after entering canada that will be invalid. Ur landing paper/copr will serve as ur immigration proof. Once u get ur pr card u will be able to travel. So even if ur pakistani passport is expiring soon ots nt a big deal, u can renew it in canada.
Hope this helps
