Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[Janet2011]

She has been in Canada for the past year on Supervisa, and she is still here. We will probably be making the landing at one of the land crossings giving that she has a U.S. visa too. I believe the key to be exempted from biometrics is that applicant needs to be in Canada when applying. My PCC indeed came before SA, which I think my vo did me a huge favour and sped things up. I was also surprised but I am not going to complain of course. Your mom doesn't need to go back to China. For my case, I asked a relative in China to be the representative for the applicant (need to give the person a signed letter of the appointment of course), then relative applied everything through the Public Notary Office. You will receive a letter telling you how to obtain the PCC in China. Depending on your city, it can be easy or much harder. Mine took less than a week from gathering original from the police to have the notarized/translated copy on hand.

Thank you so much! @DC1018.
How did you submit the PCC? by mailing original one or just scanned and emailed?

Hi @YULIA-2016 @robertp!

I got a call from CIC this morning! The call lasted less than 2 minutes. The agent said that she was calling from Citizenship and Immigration Canada and asked me to confirm my mom's first and last name. After that, she asked if my mom had left Canada since we submitted the forms and if she was still in Canada. I confirmed that yes, that my mom hasn't left Canada and that she is on a SuperVisa with a letter of extension valid until early next year. Then the CIC agent said that it was all she needed to know and wished me a nice day!

I am following it.
You, the sponsor (and your co-signer, if applicable) must prove that you have enough income to support all the persons you’ll be financially responsible for, including yourself, once you become a sponsor.

I will not be responsible for my dad financially as he is canadian citizen and has more income than I do

Unfortunately, that's not quite how it works.
Two years ago, I was pissed to have to include my (now) husband on the count because he too is a canadian citizen and at the time didn't want to sponsor my mom - which only made meeting eligibility criteria harder.
I thought to myself, great: I am dating this guy who would never be dependent of me as he was born here, and now I have to wait another couple of years to meet eligibility criteria with him added on my family count.

Now that we are married and with a kid, things changed but yeah, I was quite frustrated at the time. It doesn't seem fair to have to add citizens to your family size but hey.. life isn't fair sometimes.. lol

Hi guys,

I have sent the application for my parents' PGP sponsorship on May-28. G MARTIN received it in Ottawa at that date. However, I haven't yet got the Application received (AOR) letter. How long should I wait? Is there a number that I could reach them to question? Please let me know. I'm kindda nervous that some of you all have already received a passport request, and I haven't even got application received confirmation.

Thanks

They are overloaded, I'd give it some time. Canada post tracking of my app confirms delivery on may 03 and yesterday I finally got my aor saying they rcvd my app may 16.
As long as u know it has been delivered - save canada post tracking number, give it time.. they will get to it.

 

[danny_scars]

Should we proactively call them or something to make sure they are aware that we are waiting?

No
