Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

[RanjithP]

If you have LVO in your country. Many countries don't- which was my case. I lended up submitting a copy of moms passport to Ottawa

yes, in such cases you have to submit to Ottawa or another visa office that is authorized for your country. the ppr letter sometimes gives you multiple options depending on specific situation.

my cic account under background check says:
We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.

i am not sure when the status changed tho

Hi all,

My application was rcvd to CIC - Aug 15 2018, AOR rcvd in Nov 2018. Sponsorship application shows the processing started on Jan 15th 2019, and status shows "In progress" As i see other cases on this forum, usually it doesn't take that long for sponsorship to get either approved/rejected etc. anyone thoughts please advise?

P.S - my husband already sponsored her mother before CIC introduced lottery system, and his mother got PR couple years back. both of us were on that sponsorship (where understaking is still effective), and both us are on this application to sponsor my parents . May be thats causing possible delays?

Hi Yulia,

My gc key account status says Medical Requested today April 4th. Please update the excel sheet.
I have a question. do they send letter to the Principal applicants like in my case my Parents in India? They have not received it yet. What are the next steps they have to do for medical? Please guide me so that I can inform them. Thanks

It is background check and Passport request and PR

Technically, how long does it take for background check?

Morning Tzing.. I know... My dad's doctor told him the whole process is usually done before the medical expires, 1 year i think? Fingers crossed for both of us!!
