Get on the phone first thing in the morning and see if you can get a live agent. It is hard to do. Assume your sister signed off on the form with you as her representative. You can also order ATIP notes.
Thank you! Yes, my sister signed off on the form for me as her rep, but do they work Saturdays or I have to wait till Monday?
What is ATIP notes?

Hi
I have applied for my parents visa on 29 May and time line as follows
*****Applied Visitor Visa from India Pune*****
Application Submitted On
- May 29, 2024
Biometric Request Received - May 30, 2024
Biometric Given - June 04, 2024
Biometric Updated in Portal - June 04, 2024
Background check - In Progress
Review of eligibility - Not started.

Still no updates.. it’s frustrating to check daily basis status updates. It has been more than 2 months now!!!
Hello guys…. Just got the update after 143 DAYS Surely this was a very long wait!!! I just received the passport request for both of my parents. I guess no matter what the visa people will take their own sweet time to review the application. And finally god has granted my parents visa. I thank all of you for the support. Will let you guys know when I get the visa printed on the passport. Thank you again.

Hi need help, just got the PPR for my parents. I applied for visa 5 months back and now I got the visa approval. Now the problem is my father’s passport is expiring in the next 5 months. What I shall do? Renew passport and send or continue with this application and reapply for visa later?

The best thing was You should have checked the passport expiry date way before submitting the application, I guess the VISA get stamped according to your passports expiry date. If you apply for a new passport after getting the PPR you might need to update the application, because your passport will come with a new passport number. I would say avoid disrupting your current application and apply for a VISA renewal after coming to Canada. Make sure you renew the passport beforehand.
