When you go in for your urgent travel service passport appointment, do they check that your current passport is not valid for travel anymore? Basically, I have a trip to Indonesia departing Jul 17. Indonesia requires 6 months of passport validity for entry and my passport expires Jan 12, so it wouldn't be valid for my trip. Not wanting to take chances on getting an appointment on Jul 17 for my travel on Jul 17, I made an appointment for Jul 5 by booking a mileage ticket to YVR on Jul 5 evening that I have no intention of actually flying. The only issue is that my current passport is perfectly fine for my "trip to YVR on Jul 5". Is this something they might check when I arrive at the appointment, or is the travel within 14 days thing just a formality box they have to check?
