Parents & Grandparents Program (PGP) 2023

[Rajeeind]

Hi All,
Mine is an inland application - Parents are currently in Canada, my timelines as below,

April 24, 2024 - Sponsorship eligibility approved
April 28, 2024 - Medical passed and updated in GCkey online
May 6, 2024 - Biometrics completed and updated in GCkey online

PCC was already submitted along with application and currently there is nothing pending from my end. It's been almost 1.5 months since Medicals and Biometrics and there is no update till now. The status in GCkey online remains the same as "We are processing your application".

Based on the posts of inland applications in this forum, decision was made within 2 weeks after medical and biometrics completion. However my application is still in the same status.

Is this normal processing time or should I contact IRCC customer care to check further on this? Can someone please respond on this?
Thanks in advance and wish you all the best!

Congratulations!! Would you please share your timeline? Did you receive request for additional document and when?

Hello all, I received AOR in mail today and it says I need to provide IMM5768 form. Do I resubmit the same I had provided during application with new singnature date? Or do I need fill in new details? Any help will be appreciated as my timeline is far behind at the moment.
