Parents & Grandparents Program(PGP) 2022

[BienCanada]

I'm now in the 11th month without any update from Montreal VO. The wait and not knowing is so stressful but I will continue to wait patiently.

Lol..as if there is a choice. Patiently or impatiently one has to wait. It is a monopoly and they teach in Economics 101 that is the worst for the customer. Would be interesting if they outsource this to a private entity and then one can compare the efficiency of work done by public sector versus private sector.

We are not a customer and this is not a seller-customer relationship

Then what is it? We have to pay a fee and they have to provide a service.

Please I need help!
I submitted my parents application on Dec 24, 2022 for the 2022 stream. Last communication I received was that my application has been transfered to Montreal for processing - that was on Dec 19, 2023. I have not heard anything from them since and I have been attempting to check the status online using the client application status checker but each time it comes up with no result and this message:

We were not able to identify you using the information you provided. There could be three possible reasons:

• Please be sure the information you entered is correct and then try again.
• This service is only available to clients with applications in process. We may have received your application but not yet begun processing it. The following link may help you determine if your application is being processed:

  • sponsored a member of the family class;
  • applied for permanent residence from within or outside Canada;
  • applied for a permanent resident card (replacement or renewal);
  • applied for Canadian citizenship (grant of citizenship);
  • applied for Canadian citizenship for a person adopted by a Canadian citizen (on or after January 1, 1947);
  • applied for a citizenship certificate (proof of Canadian citizenship);
  • applied to renounce Canadian citizenship; or
  • applied to resume Canadian citizenship.

Can someone please tell me how I can check the status of the application. Or is it not possible to check the status online?

Did you get an invite to apply for PGP 2024? Why are you posting in 2022 and 2023 discussion?
You are NOT an authorized paid representative so no for the representative portal.

BTW if they have already applied under H&C, I am not sure if IRCC will accept another application.

Yes I got the invitation to apply

 

[YVR123]

Yes I got the invitation to apply

Then why didn't you post under PGP 2024 discussion and instead post your question that' is not related to PGP 2022 here.

I hope that other members can reply to see if applicants that already have a H&C case filed can still be sponsored under PGP.

Ot is not for profit, the expectation that because it is paid, you need to be treated like a retail service and suggesting private sector can do a much faster job is absurd! You are applying to be granted the right to become a permanent resident, and there is cost associated with it, it is not a right but a privilege, and you need to pay for the fees associated with this.

On a positive note , today is Friday . I saw a ghost update on my account yesterday - Application profile / Update but when I opened it , none of the fields was updated. I called cic and was informed that eligibility passed even though the status for eligibility did not get updated on my gc account . Criminality was previously passed in 2023 but security not yet started as per GCMS notes . Also
Medical not started but we have a previous medical on file done in 2020 for visitor record extension .
Application submitted - October 2022.
File has moved from Mississauga to Montreal and now Etobicoke.

Hoping for the best for everyone
