Parents & Grandparents Program (PGP) 2023

[Yukoneer]

They are asking If not already included.
if already included then no need to submit. It’s AOR , I received last week with same wording. In email subject it should say AOR. If yes then wait for next step. Just to make sure you can review your submitted form if you have submitted, signed , sin number added etc.

Thanks for the reply. My mother (applicant) did receive a Biometrics request letter yesterday so I guess I can proceed with that. I have another question on that aspect - she is coming to Canada on visit visa this weekend. I am thinking to get her biometrics within Canada once she arrives. I hope that should not be an issue.

Some one in the group may have experience with doing biometric in Canada.

Absolutely no issues, my mom did same thing. She got biometric request letter two weeks before she was scheduled to arrive in Canada and I waited for to get here to have it completed. On completion, the biometrics was updated on GCKey same day.

Hi,, I'm confused about signing these forms.. Should these forms must be printed and hand signed or can type the names

1. Use of representative IMM5476
2. Parents and grandparent Financial Eval IMM5768
3. IM1344 (unable to save without signatures as we must validate and for that need signatures)

Please advise.

Hi everyone,

My parents already has Immigration visa approved 2 days ago. Today they got Visitor visa passport requested. Does visitor visa breach/effect to immigration visa? They just dont want to ignore any documents requiring from government. Thats reason why they want to send out passport for TRV visa.

Thank you.

Hello All,

My in-laws have completed their biometrics, medical and received pre-arrival service letter, but did not receive PCC request yet. Can we submit PCC without formal request? or How long does it take to receive official formal request? Please share your inputs. Visa office Vancouver.

I'm assuming you're in Yukon.. in Manitoba, you have to get an appointment for biometrics, so just make sure that if you need an appointment as well, that you're able to get an appointment within the time frame that they have provided in the biometrics letter
