Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[trivchintan]

My parents medical expired in Dec and they just got a note to get medicals done again, which obviously sucks. But does it mean the visa processing speed is picking up at the New Delhi visa office? If we get the medicals done soon, should we expect PPR soon after??

How did you receive the request? Via email or under MyCIC account?

My parents medicals were expired in Nov but still nothing.

Hi All,

My PGP application for my parents is in "Application received" status since September 2020 (applied June 24,2019). However, I cannot link the application through my online account. Anybody know why what would be? If they have received the application and are giving a status, why the online link cannot be established?

Waiting for this to move as it has been stuck for 1.5 years now

Ours is the same story. Application received on June 24, 2019 and no movement. They sent me a letter in October 2019 requesting for a form to be signed in ink instead of electronic signature, and another letter in September 2020 advising to have my financials updated if no consent was given to my CRA records in the application. With all of this, the status of the application remains "Application received".

I've asked a local MP to assist with any update. Her office came back with the following response:
"It is progressing as expected. I should note that under normal processing times the timeline for this type of application is 20-24 months, and this is further delayed by the pandemic. Your application is complete and there are no missing documents that they can see".

It's very frustrating with IRCC and overall process.

Did you receive the request by mail or email?

I logged into GCKEY account. I didn't get any email

We just got an update that my parents medical needs to be re-done as it has now expired and they are not eligible for an extension. The Status has changed from 'Decision Made' to 'In Progress'

Don't understand the criteria really. Are your parents above 70?

Hey guys

I have been asked to submit CV/Resume for my mother. Can you please help me little bit with that. If you guys have a sample or can tell me what should I include in it, would be highly appreciated. My mother is a retired teacher and currently here in Canada on visitor visa.

Thank you

It would be pretty much same info that you filled about their job experience and the education background in Schedule-A form when you submitted the application and other basic personal info dob email /contact etc also you can add if you like. Single page resume should also work, it doesnt have to be very long.

I am also wondering what is the eligibility criteria for extension...

Same here, June 18, 2019 application received, since Feb 2020 in process and MP couldn't help at all. I think working from home and New Norm should be accepted till now for every body in Canada. I don't understand why they try to use a word of "pandemic" to justify their unacceptable delays in process. It is ridiculous....

My mother’s passport came back from CPC Ottawa and we got email from IRCC Etobicoke on 22nd Dec’20 to provide details like email, name, date of last time entered in Canada, we replied back same day but till now waiting for PR Portal link and COPR. Anyone else in same boat????

Hi, wondering when did you guys get PA DM? also why they issue PPR if your mum is in Canada?

I got PA DM on Dec 31, no PPR or CoPR yet..

Thanks,

I completely agree that pandemic should no longer be an excuse after almost a year now. I hear some of you have reached out to MPs, has anyone tried media to create a push. They should really be empathetic that parents/grandparents are already the most sensitive group with respect to their age and health status. They are just getting older every day and every delayed moment costs us lesser time with them. I have exactly similar timelines but frustrating to see the same pandemic as an excuse every time. Wishing everyone to be reunited with their parents/grandparents soon.
