Congrats ! How much time it took between BVL and PPR.. And which visa office

Bvl and ppr both came at same day not sure about timing difference. Bvl came from CPC Ottawa office

I believe you answered correctly since the family (sister-wife, spouse and children) all want to travel together.

Thanks.

Hi It sounds like IRCC is the right place to apply for a visitor center. I'm doing the same thing but keep running into this error below. I wonder If you have some tips for me? I tried everything to cover all the periods since the age of 18. I just dont understand what I got wrong. Thank you!

"Error: Give details of all your employment and activities since the age of 18. - You're missing details since the age of 18. Review your entries and make sure you included something for all times periods since the age of 18. Do not include any entries that you already put for post-secondary education or military/police force (if that was your only occupation at that time).
If you were unemployed, incarcerated, or retired since the age of 18, select that option from the menu and tell us for how long.
If you were a student at a secondary school, select unemployed.
You can't save or continue to the next questions until you include these details."

Just update from DOB to 18 also as unemployed

Hi @scylla , My sister has an active US visit VISA and we're applying for her Canadian visitor visa now. On the new portal, under supporting docs only her US visa and passport copy are requested. Do we need to attach any other optional docs?
