hi, yup , i am in the same boat as you my friend. i applied by mail and did not get any confirmation . linking the paper application online is not working for me either. i think they probably have not even looked at the applications yet.

any body who applied in 2018 got any response from IRCC ?

also is there any tracker/excel sheet etc to track out progress ? it would be a good idea to have 2018 sponsorship parents tracker

I'm in the same boat - I cannot look up the application in ECAS at all. In the AOR, I received an application # and I also have tried my receipt number from the payment but neither works. I've tried entering my information as well as my parents to look up - neither works. Help?
How many people are you entering in the count? If you have a cosigner plus two parents you should enter 4. If only 1 parent then 3, if no cosigner adjust the count. Do not add dependent or your children only parent (s) sponsor and cosponsor if applicable.
Thanks for the response - but the issue relates to not being able to look up the application in ECAS, not determining family count. Anyone able to assist with more info on ECAS look-up?

Hi Guys, I need urgent help if someone could reply that would be really appreciated.

The photos that my parents mailed do not have studio's name and date on the back, and It will take about a week to get them couriered here.

Could someone please guide what should I do.

You can write the name and address of the photographer with a thin/ sharp point permanent marker. But, did the photographer sign at the back of the photograph?

I don't think so, but I can double check when I get home. Is it required to be signed?

Signatures of photographer are not required, sorry I just noticed. As per guide 5772, following are to be written or stamped by photographer at the back of the photograph:
  • name and complete address of the photography studio
  • date the photo was taken;
Also, name and date of birth of the subject is to be filled by applicant.

Hi guys,
I am sponsoring my application for my parents; Father is the primary applicant and mother is the dependent
With regards to my brother, he is 28 yrs of age and is not financially dependent nor accompanying. Since I do not think I can apply for him as a dependent under the family class I am not including him in my application. I hope this should be fine. Please advise.
Thank you,
Nick.
