My new passport was genuinely obtained through the right process, all due process followed, so I’m very okay with them sending it to immigration for confirmation

All I want is for them to affix my visa for me at the end of everything

Your immigration contact /agent must have stated that your passport is missing or stolen, with a police report filed before the passport was approved for issuance. That is a fact, and we should not deceive ourselves. This is the same reason you need to give to the IRCC, which you should have done immediately after receiving that passport. However, I guess it's not too late. Claiming you want to enjoy a 10-year visa and now having two valid passports is illegal. Last year and earlier this year, many people were doing this, but I believe the IRCC has started cracking down on this behavior.l hope you get visa stamped in your passport soon.

If his passport was the old one there’s something called migration, you can choose to migrate to the new passport by paying 10,000 to immigration services plus the fee for the new passport and you obtain a new passport.

Before the issuance of a new passport, the immigration would cancel the old one on the system

And my collection email from VFS dropped since yesterday afternoon (I was just stressing my self for nothing)

I was checking a different email from the one I submitted to VFS

I’m picking up my stamped passport on Monday

Congratulations! This should serve as a lesson to others to do things the right way to avoid such situations. There's no need to argue anymore because I know what I'm talking about.

Please,It's a learning platform, and people shouldn't take things personally. We're all learning and unlearning from each other. However, my only advice is if you want to keep the first passport, please make sure it is cut a bit with scissors on the edge if you going abroad . This will render it invalid. However, if any visa inside is still valid, especially for a country like the USA, you cannot arrive at the border with two valid passports. Deleting it in your country's immigration database does not make it invalid at a foreign destination, but the date on it and if it is cut at the edge is the normal practice to render a passport invalid.
l wish you safe trip

You have 3 years validity on your passport and not meant to renew except on certain conditions, as stated above.

Meanwhile, firstly, go and ask the immigration officer the reason that was used for you on NIS database to have been able to get your passport renewed even with a 3 year validity. This will enable you know what to tell IRCC.

Hello guys, please how many months statement of account can I submit for my Visa application?
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Jeboy(m): 12:12pm On Aug 19
General advise to those who care to listen?

There is no need to process a new passport if you still have more than 6 months on your current passport after you have been approved. If you have done that prior approval it is better to inform IRCC earlier.

The fact that people are doing it and getting away doesn't mean it will be so at your own turn.

Let's try and normalize doing things rightly and even when you japaa you will not have any fear of exhibiting traits that contravene laws of organized society.

What many if us call smartness or grace in Nigeria (using connection/bribe to bypass process) may land you in trouble in organized society.

Are you a first time applicant or visa renewal? Its seems pretty fast, i submitted 13th July, i have a valid US and UK visas, but no reponse yet
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Jeboy(m): 3:52pm On Aug 20
Did you apply alone or with other family members without US Visa.

You can send a web form attaching your valid US Visa and ask for CAN + processing.

I also hope you filled the travel history very well filling your US travel history experience.
