I have a question for family information from. What we need to do for printing in native language script? Do we need to print by pen under same line of English typed names and scan and upload?

Is there a way to convert the supervisa to a work permit? We have been trying for pgp for three years and didn’t get selected and the supervisa insurance cost is too high

I tried but that doesn’t allow to paste.
I tried just now and it work for me. For example in additional family information under section A enter full name in English and then next to it paste name in native language ( name you can translate using google translator and copy) I wish I can send you screen shot

I believe there is no such thing as "converting" one visa to another, your have to apply for the visa you want. That said, you'd need to apply for work permit for your parents...

There is no "conversion". If one of your parents qualified for a closed work permit with LMIA, then go for that route.
It's un-related to supervisa.

Not unless your parents have a job offer with approved LMIA that proves no Canadian or PR could be hired, only your parents. Then with LMIA, your parents apply for a closed work permit. They need to show experience to do the job so they need employment letters, possibly ECA for education and IELTS.

I have submitted my parents pgp application last week. My wife is my co-signer. She has applied for name change on citizenship certificate. Her application is under process. I believe after the name change she will get new citizenship certificate with new certificate number. I can't update that with IRCC until I get the application number. Will this cause any issue in rejection of the application?

Worsecase it will cause a delay, I don't see why it should lead to a rejection.

Hopefully this will work out for me. I was using other apps for translation instead of google. I will try that. Thanks a lot!
