Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018
- Thread starter Amigo30
- Start date
I think it's optional. If your principle applicant can check his/her own status and manage his/her own application, no need to include IMM 5474.
Can anyone tell me, how long it IRCC takes to send the PPR request after sending pre-arrival letter?
I received the PPR letter n 21st Nov

Hey everyone,
I'm new to this thread. I have sent my parents docs for sponsorship and they've received it on Sep. 21, 2018. But I haven't received AOR yet. Is this normal?
How long usually takes them to send AOR? I took a look at the spreadsheet and I'm seeing some wild variations. There are people that had received AOR as early as 5 days.

AOR times are different for everyone. Reason I believe is, everyone's file is different. e.g. someone has missing signatures, Some had used old forms etc. I have known, who got email, regarding missing signatures , even before AOR.
From the Spread sheet, you can see the timelines for all of these. So guess your time from there.
Most important to note:
1. Make sure CIC had the correct email address for you to send AOR etc.
2. If so make sure you check your SPAM/Junk folder for emails.
3. Most of the information from CIC delivered as email. So keep that in mind.
Hope this helps
My guess is, there are two ways to check the status of your application
1. ECAS
2. Using GCKey
With ECAS you should be able to check as well. But information there is not updated often by CIC. Also limited information etc.
Using GCKey you can attach your file with GCkey. You can upload your docs requested by CIC and messages from CIC etc. But if your lawyer/Consultant had already done that, you won't be able to attach your application GCKey. It is only one at a time. I may be wrong but that was it, when i had done in the past. So you need to revoke access by filling up "Use of Representative" form, then you can do it. Also all emails/Communications goes to your Lawyer if you had appointed lawyer using that form. May there is work around to that, i am not sure.
Be careful, if you revoke your lawyer access and you appointed yourself. Then you have to keep an eye on all your emails/Messages from CIC. If you missed one, may be a problem for your sponsorship. I know, lawyer can do that to. But just giving you heads up.
Hope this helps
Hello folks,
Questions:
From quick review of spreadsheet, It seems CIC completes SA (Sponsorship Approval) from 1 month to 3 months approx. Does anyone has any information about how much time it takes to get SA if all docs are completed or after AOR?
Also, does AOR means application is complete and having all the supported documents? at least up to sponsorship approval, including fees?
Thank you

Unfortunately, it is not okay. It must be Canadian source income. But check with immigration lawyer
But will you live in Canada and work in US? You can't sponsor your parents if you live outside of Canada.
As suggested, you should check with a lawyer. I am not sure if it's OK if you live in Canada and have employment income from US.
If you hire a consultant then they submit a representative form with an application which makes it unable to link your application to gc key (though when you search for your application on gc key it will mention that this application has authorized representative). You would need to submit the representative form again to unauthorize them(which you dont want to do because you already paid them i guess) because consultants have other paid portal where they can see application details and they dont need to link to thier account. IRCC adds those application directly to thier account. This paid portal is only allowed to the lawyers which are in good standing.
On the other hand you can always check your status online through ecas portal by using your client id and last name, dob and country of birth.
