The Simplified Renewal Application Process allows Canadians to renew their passports without resubmitting proof of Canadian citizenship or supplementary identification and guarantor information. Some conditions apply.
Canadians who meet the following eligibility criteria are now able to benefit from this process:
At the time they applied for their previous passport, they must have been at least 16 years of age.
Their most recent passport:
Must have been valid for five years;
Must have been issued in Canada (as indicated under "Issuing Authority" on page 2 of the submitted passport);
是啊,我也看到了这个。
你看,它说:“Must have been valid for five years;”。如果等满5年,那岂不过期了?
那要是我现在就想Renew呢?
因为要去中国大使馆申请签证的话,他们要求护照至少有6个月的有效期,这不就成了:在我的护照过期之前,我还无法出国了! 那要等过期之后、没有申请新护照之前,就更无法出国了!
