Hi, I got a letter to ask for additional documents, and I submitted by email. Any one knows how to check if they've received it? MyCIC still says "We need additional docs", it has been more than a week now.

Hi guys,

I am the sponsor for my mom. If my employment changed during the immigration process, should I inform the immigration office about it. I know I will still meet the financial requirement. However, I am worried that the place of work is different now. Online I see only below situations mentioned for keeping information up to date:

• marriage or divorce
• birth or adoption of a child
• death of an applicant or dependant
• contact information updates, including:
  • email
  • phone number
  • mailing address

Please advise.

Pre-arrival services: what canadian govt. website says under “who can get services”-
if we approve your PR application.

question; does that mean at any stage if we get pre-arrival services letter it means the application has been approved at the backend?

Yes

My mom did the biometrics in Buffalo on Nov 1 and as of today mycic status still shows ”we have not received your fingerprints....”although the biometrics number, expiry date are shown under applicant info. Thinking of taking my mom to do the biometrics again in Canada now. Any thought?

Thanks

Same here. My parents got biometrics done in New Delhi 2 weeks ago. Their file has their bio date and expiry date but states they haven’t received the fingerprints...

Within Canada, How to book a bio appointment online then? No link on the website.

Hi, is student loan considered as social assistance and will affect my sponsorship application? I still have student loan and not yet fully paid back.

Not at all. Both myself and wife has current student loan and we we’re approved.

How to book appointment for bioemtric in Canada. I have an appointment in the afternoon in Buffalo and Im not trying to go now since they have opened it here and the deadline is Dec 20. I cant seem to location the appointment option on the locations yet? Please advise

I saw the Biometrics announcement as well - which is great.
but it clearly says Permanent residents -

Starting December 3, 2019, you need to give your fingerprints and photo (biometrics) if you’re applying within Canada as a

• foreign worker (including extending your work permit)
• international student (including extending your study permit)
• visa-required visitor (including extending your stay)
• permanent resident

SO if we sponsored our parents at that time they were not in Canada - then we can not do biometrics here - That is what i understood ...

what is your opinion forum members ...
