If you have an application number that starts with F000XXXX, that's the only application number you need to link to your account. It contains both your mom and dad applications.

I thought I have a separate application with my name and sponsorship?

This is crazy .. no one from London LVO !!!!
All from Ottawa or New Delhi and some other in change

I cannot complaint just yet, as my file has only been in Singapore VO for about a week. But, I checked the SS and there are still a few applications from 2017 that have not been completed yet in Singapore VO. It is mindboggling because not very many PGP applications were sent to that VO. But, they still managed to be very slow in processing.

London VO seems to get a lot more PGP applications than SG. So, it could be the reason why it's taking longer. But, I'm hoping they get their acts together and process our applications in a reasonable time frame for our sakes.

Thanks @YULIA-2016. Are there any lines for sponsorship approval ? Or do we directly get decision made.

nope, that's it
just saw DM

Everyone has a UCI (Unique client Identification), but there's only one application number. That application number is applicable to both the sponsor and sponsored person(s). You can use F000XXX application number to check status on ECAS. It will show status for "everyone". You don't link UCIs individually to you, your mom and dad. You link application number to your online account. Think of it as a fax cover sheet. It ties everything together.

If you are having trouble linking it to your account, contact CIC for help.

Hi Yulia. I have online account on CIC as a sponsor and also have online accounts for my mom and dad. my dad is principal applicant.

i cannot link an existing application when i login in my account and also when i login in any of my parents account.

and what should i answer - how many members in your application - is it 2 for my mom and dad only or

me +my wife+my son+dad+mom = 5
or
mom+dad=2

And I also have only my dads name on my AOR. it does not show my moms name. Is it normal.

try 2 and 4

I'm not sure how other LVOs process PRR applications. But, Singapore LVO follows the same steps I went through to get SA (i.e AOR - SA).

Ottawa sent my files to Singapore LVO on 5 Nov 2018, and SG LVO sent me its AOR (second AOR from local visa office) on 22 Nov. So, it took them two weeks to acknowledge it.

ECAS message on PR Application status changed from "In Process" to "Application Received". When I click on the link, it shows "We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of application(s) on November 22, 2018". I guess it makes sense to have consistency in processing procedure.

Is that kinda of the same for everyone? I'm just curious (205) - pun intended

I havn't had a second AOR from London VO, they have had it for over 2 and a half months now

 

[chady008]

Looks like whole journey will take at least one year?

 

[katewilson76]

Hi Everyone, I have checked the wonderful spreadsheet and it appears that there has been no activity for London Visa Office. Is this correct? Or are people just not filling out the spreadsheet anymore.

Thank you

there is no movement from LOndon Since Aug 2017, NOTHING AT ALL

I want to know if I sponsor my parents and 18 year old sister in 2019.

I have met income requirements for 2016,2017 and will meet for 2018 but I am confused if I can still apply in 2019 as 2018 taxes will not be done until end of February whereas application deadline might be somewhere in January. Do I have to apply in 2020 once I have paperwork for 2018?

make sure you Tax return is in as early as you can, it should be ok, it was for me but they are doing it different this year

Is there an Online Application Form that needs to be filled in to sponsor parents before a certain deadline? Jan 1st or Feb 1st? What kind of information is asked in that form and will they ask income for 2018? If selected how much time is given to submit paperwork?
