This is by no means an incorrect PHAC Application. There are situations in pregnancy that call for critical care and PHAC is the only option. I’d appreciate if people can refrain from such comments that are useless.
Couldn't agree more. It's critical to have at least one parent around to be able handle the final few weeks of pregnancy, and more importantly, the postpartum weeks (after birth). Anyone who says one spouse can take care of everything, on top of their existing job and/or supporting existing child, has probably not experienced childbirth. People can't even hire a helper/cook/nanny right now due to lockdowns, even if they could. And as you said, pregnancies can go sideways with complications, there can be C-section surgery, etc. in which case one needs all the strength and support they can muster.
Pregnant women's parents are not coming to Canada on PHAC to just hang out or "meet grandchild" – they're damn worried! And all they want to do is come here and care for their daughter as much as they can. So pregnancy, especially if you or your wife is in the last stages of it, is certainly a key reason to use PHAC application. We should be glad Canada has made a provision to allow such a thing, during these highly challenging times of Covid that we're in.
Congratulations. Thank you for your response. Can you pls tell me your timeline on how long it took from PHAC approval, Biometric & Visa approval notice?

Thanks for your response. I have emailed IRCC to expedite my parents TRV based on PHAC approval. It's been 8 working days and have not received any communication through email or CIC portal??..Any idea why it's taking so long for me...

How long does it takes to receive a reply from IRCC for travel exemptions? I mailed them on 1st April for application prioritisation of my parents and no reply yet!

Same here, I emailed on 31st March but haven’t received any reply or update on the application. Had received automated receiving confirmation.
Has anyone else got an update on TRV applications after biometrics during last 10-15 days?
@Mac2015
Yes, I have submitted an application for PHAC approval just 5 minutes back. I really don't care even if it is a Single entry visa. Right now my wife needs her mother's support. Will do another application in the future if we get a single entry visa.
I really don't have any idea of how this PHCA approval helps us but I did submit.
Do you think this PHAC approval will speed up our Visitor visa application?
Can you please share some information what is the requirement and process to apply for PHAC visa? I am in the process of applying visitor visa for my mother in law and father in law, and I have not submitted my application yet. I do have the doctor's note so I am wondering when should I apply for exemption and what will be the process to apply for exemption? Can you share any link or form that need to be filled? and do I need to submit two exemptions separate for my father in law and mother in law or both can be in one exemption?
Hi, Congratulations. Can you please share total time it took for you from receiving passport request from IRCC, processing time and receiving the passport back??
