EMERGENCY!
Hi, My mother's sponsorship is currently under "Finalize the permanent residence confirmation process". I have declared her residence in Canada, uploaded her photo and waiting for ECOPR. We have some emergency where she needs to travel immediately. I tried connecting to IRCC, but no luck.

can she travel now? What would be the procedure? Please advise!
It would be a good idea to stay where she is in Canada. Dont be a victim of Indo-canada fight. India suspended the visa services.

Hi everyone,

I am trying to change my mailing address using IRCC online tool but I get an error everytime that my application is not found. Has anyone else faced this issue? How important is to change my physical address as communication is received by email?

After pre-arrival its typically passport request/virtual landing.
Not sure about the medical though. Hopefully you won't have to do that as it will be one less step.

Same here, waiting for an eCOPR after submitting Photo and address from 5th September.
VO Montreal.
Happy to hear that you've gotten communication from Montreal. I haven't heard anything since my file was transferred there almost two months ago.

I saw people with similar timelines as me getting eCoPRs yesterday from Etobicoke office but none of them were PGP stream.
It's obvious they will not get any benefits from giving PR to our parents because our parents will not earn and pay tax to the govt. so they're less important to them than the other stream. I'm hoping to get their PR before anything happens between India and Canada, because it is getting more uglier than I thought between two countries.

I have applied for Pcc for India it’s being almost 1 month. Police verification was done same week when I submitted Pcc request. Still I am waiting for PCC. I called consulate and they said that Pcc is not uploaded by local Police station. Is there anything I can do to expedite the process.
