TLDR : Answer Summary

If your passport expires before your DTV visa, you should keep both your old passport (with the visa stamped) and your new passport, as you will need to present both when necessary. It is advised to get a new passport before applying for a visa to avoid complications.

If your DTV is stamped in your old passport, keep it and show it along with your new one.
