Parents & Grandparents Program (PGP) 2023

[totobee]

Thanks for your response. I still can’t link it, still saying error, so frustrating. The portion for what category I picked permanent residence, sub category I picked family class parents and grandparents. I filled in application number. The portion for names can’t be filled out. I proceed to applicant information and filled everything out, but still tells me error. I believe am not filling it out properly.

To those who have a hard time linking their application to their GCKey account, here is what the IRCC customer service told me in linking the application:

1. Make sure that the Last Name is CAPITALIZED.

2. On the part where you put the number of family members, put the NUMBER of ADULTS in the box (if spouse DIDN’t co-sign, EXCLUDE them). On my application: I have 3 kids, my wife as a co-signer, my self, and my mom (dad deceased). This was where I messed up as I kept putting 6 as the number. It should just be “3”.

I finally linked my mom’s application and able to see the progress.

Hi all, I hope someone can share some insights into the PR application process for parents and grandparents.

As the principal applicant, my dad has already received his eCOPR and is currently in Canada. However, the accompanying dependents (my mom and brother) are still waiting for their next steps and are currently in India.

Does anyone have experience with this situation? I'm particularly interested in understanding the process for dependents in India, such as the timeline for receiving their COPRs and any specific documents or steps they need to take.

Hi, i am in same situation. my mother principal applicant received eCOPR, lives in canada but my father as dependent he is in india didn’t get any update yet.

My parents received Passport request and submitted passport on Sept 24 at VFS Delhi. How long does it take for stamping? They have an upcoming travel in a few weeks.

Does anyone knows if there're any delays for PR visa stamping due to the ongoing political conflicts between India and Canada ?
