Hi All,

Need help

We filed for our parent's sponsorship in 2nd lottery of 2017.
Decision was made for sponsor in June 2018 and file was moved NDVO in June 2018.
Received an email for medical, Police clearance and RRPF request in mid-July 2018.
But received only medical forms in the CIC login created. Medicals were performed and passed in Aug 1st week.
Didn't receive any request for Police clearance and RRPF in CIC login so sent the documents by replying on the email received.
Got confirmation email in mid Sepember that documents sent by email are received.

Following is the status of the application

My wife also filed for her parents sponsorship 2nd lottery in 2017 but they have already landed last month and now waiting for their PR cards. I would say yours is very slow but maybe normal for NDVO.

Contact the visa office. Btw, you should have posted it in the separate thread for 2018.

Hello Everyone ,
For my parents application we got an email from NDVO saying - We are pleased to inform you that you, your spouse and dependents can now receive free pre-arrival services funded by the Government of Canada. These services are available before you arrive and are meant to better prepare you for life in Canada - so on

Wondering if this means application has been approved , if yes how long it will take for passport request. Also Application status on ecas is still in progress. Any help will be appreciated . Thanks in advance for all the answers.

It's still early to know if app has been approved. As in the case of the timeline of that poster several replies before you, the poster probably received the pre-arrival email around the same time as when file was moved to NDVO. You wouldn't know until they passed their medicals and passport request.

Personally, I think the pre-arrival service is pretty useless.
