Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[SainiBS]

My parent's status was changed from 'In Process' to 'Decision Made' a week back. How long will it take for him to receive the Passport Request letter?

So far this has been quite useful for most of us to share information about our parents'/grandparents' cases.
The tracker today shows 440 out of 865 (50.9%) cases have crossed PPR stage.
Most of recent PPRs are from London and CPC-M.

Hi,
My mother received an information letter today that her Application was moved from CPC-M to Montreal Immigration Office.

Does someone know why files are transferred to Montreal Immigration Office? My mother is in the Philippines.

Thanks!

Don't remember anyone posted that their case was transferred to Montreal.
No need to worry, it must be on the track. Hope for good.

My parents submitted their passports on Tuesday February 8 and received them back via courier on Saturday February 12.

Along with the COPR, a document listing some useful tips was attached. Under a section of 'who can travel to Canada' the following was listed:

You must also
- be coming to Canada to settle permanently (you cannot come to Canada and leave to go live in another country, even if it it's temporary)

That sounds a bit odd considering most people do a soft landing and then land for good later. Anyone heard of it?

Yeah I received one for my mom yesterday. Does anyone know how long does it generally take from pre arrival letter to passport request or COPR?

Can I get access to the worksheet that shows dates of different steps for PR?

Yes , you can inform 25 days in advance.Using webform inform IRCC that your parents will be in canada wef ...put date .
Update canada address .

Thank you Hary0707, what do you mean by 25 days in advance? We already received PP request on February 8th

can they send it to NY VFS?

We are still trying to figure out which way will be easier and not sure if both ways are correct - coming to Canada on PR or sending passport to VFS in NY,USA.

Do we need to update webform in both cases?

Thanks

The easiest for your parents may be to come to Canada and do virtual landing.
However, there are many struggling to get invitation for virtual landing.

Thanks, in that case can they send their passports to VFS in NY, USA ?

Is this correct either way - virtual landing or sending passport to VFS in NY, USA?

Do we update webform in both cases?

Hi,

I applied for my parents sponsorship in June 2019.

In June 2021 they received the medical request and Nov 2021 Pre-Arrival Letter.

In Feb 2022 (a week ago) they received PPR.

I have the following questions:

1. Is there a way to delay their arrival? Their medical will expire in June 2021 and so they must enter Canada before then. My eldest brother is having a baby in 2 months and my mother, who is also dependent on this application (father being principal applicant) has to provide daycare for the child.

2. My parents are also very nervous to travel to Canada and leave their other sons behind, considering COVID. Is there a possibility that my second to eldest brother applies for TRV and gets approved? He is 30 years old, does a 9-5 job, doesn't have a lot of money in the bank. My parents won't feel as much as stressed if one of their sons accompanies them in their travel and helps them settle. Has anyone had a similar experience?

You may send an invite letter to your younger brother and apply trv multiple entry ، no need money in bank ۔Visa will be issued in 30daysif has passport۔
You can not delay if medical expiry in june۔

Why would you suggest that they don't need a bank account statement? (Except I am missing something)
- Assuming that you state in your invitation letter that HE would take care of his own expense then he needs a bank statement to proof that he can indeed afford it. HE also would need to show tides to his home country to demonstrate he'd return back after his visit.
- Assuming that you state YOU would be taking care of his expenses then you'd need to attach your bank statement as proof that you can afford it. Again HE would need to show tides to his home country to demonstrate he'd return back after his visit.
