Hello Everyone,

My relative has got Sponsorship approval under PGP category for 2023, she is at present staying in Canada under super visa from Feb 2022 onwards during the time she landed as per the super visa guideline before July 2022 the supervisa holders can continuously stay for two years whereas from July 2022 the super visa rules changed and the super visa holders can stay continuously for 5 years.

As per the previous guidelines she will have to return before Feb 2024 as she will be completing 2 years or is she eligible to stay under the new guidelines which allows super visa holders to stay continuously for 5 years, in that case does she needs apply for extension or is she eligible to stay for a period of 5 years as per the new super visa guidelines without applying for extension.

Kindly clarify as her PR is under process it would be good if she could continue her stay.

Regards,
She needs to apply for extension and see how much time IRCC will allow her to stay. I do not know the details on how the forms needed to be filled.

@Chintan.patel hi chintan if we validate ANY IIM form then realize date is incorrect and chnage the date and saved the from is that okay even if its already validated before?
After changing the date, you have to click on validate button again. It will change the pattern of the barcode. So click on validate and save.
If you make any chages on form, aoways validate it.

Please clarify :
5772 guide says : "Passports for each person being sponsored should include all the pages and be uploaded under “Additional supporting documents” in your online application."

On online, it has "Travel Documents" section.

Where we need to upload?

Q: How to fill travel history when my parents are currently visiting on visit visa and returning in a few days? Should they wait and return before submitting the application OR can they put a future date in Supplementary Information: Your Travels (IMM 5562) and submit ASAP?

Guys,

I received an email today reminding me that i must submit may PGP 2023 intake on or before the deadline.
Then suddenly some questions came out in my mind.

In submitting the PGP 2023. The Principal applicant should do that? By creating a Permanent Resident Portal Account and after log in fill out and attached all the forms and documents, is that right?

How about the sponsor? Just Fill out the IMM 1344 Sponsor & Sponsorship undertaking, IMM5771 DOCS Checklist and IMM5748 if applicable - and after filling out just give it to Principal applicant and upload it on his PR portal application online. is that right?

Thank you again. I was just double checking.

I got the same email, I think they sent that email to all the applicants. To my knowledge, I think that the Permanent Resident Portal should be created and all documents completed there and submitted.

My brother who lives in Quebec submitted letter of intent back in 2020. We received invitation to apply in 2023.
Can I submit my information as sponsor instead of my brother. The reason is because I live in Ontario and time processing is faster.
Is it mandatory for person who submitted letter of intent to be the sponsor or it doesn't matter?

Yes, give their UCI number. IRCC ran out of 8 digit UCI numbers, so they rolled out 10 digit UCIs. You can give 10 digit UCI number.
