I wanna know why it says that Canadian passports are 'not renewable'. Does this mean I have to go through all that running around again when mine expires? |
Yes, you need to fill out a form and get a photo taken and then take it into a passport office (or mail it).
I suggest everybody apply for your passport using the online form - it will save you 90% of the wait at the passport office. |

Yes you will have to do everything over again. New picture, new everything. |

New photo I'm fine with - that makes sense.
I was more referring to new references and/or guarantor - the part where they have to call people to verify your identification.. having to do that all over again. |

Do it online. Seriously - it takes like 10 minutes to fill out the forms and print them. Then you get the documents/photo signed by your guarantor. Once you arrive at the passport office it's a 5 to 10 minute wait for the online apps (1+ hours for the regular apps).

I think 5 year is fine. People's situation/appearance changes too much over 10 years. National security is worth it. |
