Yes, this what how I understood it as well. I specifically asked to have my old Passport back with the Visa page not stamped “cancelled” so I could contjnue using it. However, I’ve had conflicting information and the local visa office / embassy could not “guarantee” it would be accepted so I opted for the safe route of getting a new one. Hopefully my new 10 year Visa gets me through more than 1.5 years before it is filled up.
