hai did you use file no. or uci id .date of birth or what, can you please tel , i am trying to link since last month no luck
I was trying it every day for months. I didn’t have application number, so I was trying with all different combinations like UCI and Family Last Name or Given Name and Last Name. Then ofcourse, passport information and what city they will live in here. For number of people I added - 5 (sponsor/me, co-sponsor/my husband, primary applicant/my dad, dependant1/my mom, dependent2/my sister)

Hi .. please can you tell how you submitted pcc , arhat card and voter id through Gc account. I got the email to submit these documents but I don’t see that is requested to upload in the account.

Friends, Anyone got success in downloading copy of Voter ID card from Indian election commission website ?

Can we download ? I heard about it but not sure.

My parents are in Canada but Voter cards are in India.

Hi, I got the PPR (Passport request) for my parents. I was worried earlier when the processing time jumps to 34 months but IRCC really surprised me this time. My timeline is as follows:

Application submitted: 13 Oct 2021
Ghost email update: Jan 05, 2022
File linked to IRCC: Jan 10, 2022 (File number and biometrics information was already there)
Document request ( prove the relationship between sponsor and principal applicant): Jan 22, 2022
AOR, Sponsor approval: Never received any till now
Medical update: Mar 02, 2022 (passed, previous medical from super visa was used)
PCC, document request (prove the relationship between the principal applicant and my mother): May 17, 2022 (although the marriage certificate was submitted earlier, they request, Aadhar & Voter id card too)
Background Check started: July 06, 2022
PPR : July 07, 2022

My parents are from India. IRCC is processing the applications fastly now and I think the super visa application of my parents did really help a lot this time as no biometrics, no medical was asked. The further background check was already done, so it doesn't take long this time, I guess.

I would wish everyone to get their results sooner.
Hi congratulations.. please can you share the process of passport request . Do the parents have to go and submit in vfs ?

Hi guys,

In June i got a biometrics request for my parents. We did the biometrics next day and it got updated online (GCKEY) next day. i can see the number and date when it was done. Few days later i got an email that my profile was updated. When i opened i noticed the biometrics section got updated with this:


Biometrics
  • We have not received your fingerprints. Check your biometrics request message below for details.
Anybody got any clue whats happening or faced this issue? There is no new message below.

Again this isn’t for me, it’s from someone I know. For me, I did receive a separate aadhaar card and voter id request for my parents which I provided. Check my timeline in signature for further details.

Did you check “view/upload documents” section? For me it was available to upload there.

Linked application on the IRCC website today. Until today I didnt see a need to link the application between the PR portal and the IRCC portal. But after I looked into the details I felt it carries value. Slightly more details and status available and also provides the accessibility to upload documents.

I wasnt able to link the application past few months perhaps due to various reasons. But I think once the application and UCI numbers are available it is possible. The browser settings dont make it easier but with cookies cleared and Incognito mode helped.

Below link helped:

To prove my relationship with my dad, I am expected to provide my voters card. Earlier along with the application I had submitted 10th, 12th and convocation copies along with birth certificate. Now i don’t have a voters card as I never got one made when I was back home. Now I am Canadian citizen but I do have aadhaar and pan card, will that suffice? And do I need to give an explanation as to why I am submitting pan and aadhaar instead of voters card? Please advise. Thanks in advance
