Hello everyone,
My stepmother is in Canada, and I am in Nigeria. She is now a Permanent Resident (PR), she actually obtain her PR through refugee claim. When she applied for her PR, she also included me in her application. In 2023, the IRCC in Canada transferred my application to the Accra office. Since then, I haven't received any updates or heard anything from Accra. I'm unsure if I am supposed to pay any application fees or submit additional documents.

I tried calling the Accra office, but they didn’t provide any information, and there seems to be no way to communicate with them. My stepmother’s IRCC account is closed since she’s now a PR. I also attempted to link my application online, but it's not working.

Could someone please advise on how I can find out if the IRCC in Accra needs more documents or if I need to pay any fees? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Where is your father? Her ability to sponsor you as long as you are under 22 is dependent on your father being sponsored since you are his dependent not hers.
