Guys I am not able to link my application. I have got email that I have passed eligibility for sponsoring my parents. Now I am waiting for Police clearance cert call, Medical and Passport call.

I do not know what is my application number is, I have UCI number from my Super visa application.

How can I link my application? Please help.

Finally I was able to link my father's application, who is principal applicant. Please remember this info, this helped me.

1) I used Application number & Last name
2) If you’re applying for family sponsorship, in the last question, “Number of family members, including the primary applicant, that are part of this application”, also include the sponsor and the co-signer (if applicable). The number entered will be at least 2.

Greeting everyone. We received a message requesting few things by IRCC.

  1. Proof of residential address, which is straight forward ( we are planning to submit driver's license, and utility bills)
  2. Proof of relationship: we submitted marriage certificate and birth certificate at the beginning. Now they are asking, adhaar and voter's ID. What are these?? In the country where my in-laws are there is no voter's ID and what is Adhaar? I search about this and noticed, this is some sort of ID in India but we are not from India, so whay are they asking this?? mistake??
  3. Also, Police certificate, which we will apply and send them soon.
Anyone who received this. They have even asked us Indian Passports and/OCI, not sure what is going on?

Greetings. In regards to the submission on non-existence documents, we submitted a webform request on June 21 and received ack email of submission immediately. We received, on June 26 (today), an email from their mailbox suggesting that the information/documents we submitted via webform have been added to our file. Just now, on June 26, we received a request letter in our online account suggesting us to disregard the previous letter via online, and asking us a new list documents (actually reduced list from the earlier one). In the new list, they have removed the proof of relationship (so no more India specific document) and just asked us to submit police certificate for parents (father, principal applicant , and mother, dependent spouse) and mother's details of government services. We have been given 30 days from now, so kind of gain of 4-5 days, as we wont be able to get certificates in 30 days from parents' home country (the standard time is 30 days or more).

One question though, when I sent them an explanation letter why we wont be able to submit police certificates on time, do we need to send them a proof. If yes, what could be such? Are screen shots of (a) website suggesting processing time for PCC, (b) online application submission enough ??

I am sponsoring my mother. I am married (my husband is not a co-signer) and have a daughter. I entered 2 as the number of persons (my mother and myself).

This is interesting and strange, my wife is sponsoring her parents (father and mother, 2). I co-signed the application and we have a child. We entered 5.

P.S: We were able to link the application way before receiving any communication from them. We used information on passport to link the application, as we had no file number and UCI at the time of link. However, we learned those number after we were able to link the application.

One quick question: We submitted birth certificate of the sponsor (as a proof of relationship of sponsor to the principal applicant and dependent spouse). Also, we submitted marriage certificate as a proof of relationship of the principal applicant to dependent spouse. Now we are asked to submit other documents, to to prove the relationship. What else can be submitted?

Anyone received such request?? is this generic information or something they ask when the provided documents are insufficient?

I am asked to submit my Country's passport photocopy as a proof of relationship

Hello,

My parents stayed more than 6 months in Canada as they had super visa. Now I got police clearance certificate request, where they asked for,

Police Certificate: From each country/state where the residence period has been six months or
longer since the age of 18, provide an original police clearance certificate. You are required to provide a copy of
your original police certificate from Bangladesh and any other country where you have resided for a period of six
months or longer since the age of 18. Please follow these instructions to ensure you provide the correct police
certificate: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/medical-
police/police-certificates/how.html


Anyone knows how to request for Police Clearance certificate for Canada (for living in Toronto more than 6 months)?
