[ew88]

thank you Robertp.. My Dad found picture of Aadhar card but it's has shadow on picture while taking picture. If I send it, would there be a concern? Please guide.

I would recommend you to get those documents scanned and send it

What is your PR application status?
"Application Received " or "In Process "

PA status "in process"
Also there is a message saying that we send you a letter on October 10th, I assume this is biometrics request, which I got thru My CIC

 

[Paramita12]

The letter should contain the email ID where you should send your docs.

If mailing then to Your LVO (the letter should have the address as well.).

means? I am from india.
Now i stay in toronto. I applied for my parents.
So where i need to send all documents?

Hi @robertp ; @YULIA-2016 ; @bdidol or others experienced can you advise me how to key in travel dates in Travel History form.
My mother is in Canada from June 2017 and during her stay in canada she has been to US 6-7 times. each trip was 3-4 days. so should I mention each time she goes to US as a separate trip and returns to Canada as a separate trip? or I can mention in the cover letter that she is in Canada from June 2017 till date and during this period from Canada she made 6 US trips and length of these trips as per the form. If i include each time she returns to Canada as a separate trip then I have to use two forms.

Did u receive AOR from London visa office, which date? as most of us after getting AOR from London our sponsor status is Decision Made and our PR application status is Application Received.

If its In Process for PR then hopefully some movement for u in near future.

If there is no record about it in the passport, then no nees to show these short trips. Otherwise show them separately..make sure no gap in the timelines

I think now a days they dont stamp anything but they have records online who entered and left when. I think mentioning them would be a better thing.

Looks like you are thinking to send documents without being requested.
If asked by LVO the email address is given in the requisition letter.

@SAM_2014
No AOR or medical, just biometrics;

So after ur SA letter there should be an AOR from LDNIMMIGRATION that they received your application in london office. After that status changes back to application received in London.

hey there, i am not sure if you could assist me or may be someone else could assist me on this thread.

So I am going to enter canada as a new immigrant on a PR visa around June 2020. I am an indian and currently living in dubai since 6 years.

My mother is a widow now and she is living with us since 1 year, she is 67 years old.
Its obvious me and my spouse will take a few months in canada to find our first job and settle in, the challenge we face now is that my mother doesnt have an house back in our home country nor does she have a property etc.

A friends of ours suggested us to apply for a tourist visa for my mother considering my cousin lives in Vancouver, so we could get an invite letter from them and show an itinerary for my mother along with our bank statements informing the immigration officer she is coming to visit my cousin and she could be stamped a tourist visa from anywhere between 2 to 10 years, depending on our luck.

Now the question is, in order to apply for a super visa for her, me and my spouse need to demonstrate a certain CAD income for a period of 1 year with tax returns if i am not mistaken?

Also to sponsor parents , again we need to make sure we have tax returns etc , since we are going to be new PR what option can we use?

Someone told us if her tourist visa is stamped for 5 years, she can exit canada every 6 months once for a couple of days and come back, is this true? for how many times is this possible to do? I read your comment on top saying that your mother has exited to usa 6-7 times, was it a similar case?

We anyone can suggest a perfect plan for us would highly appreciate it .

Hi Mona,

You can arrange with your cousin for tourist visa with all itinerary planned - showing bank balance , saving deposits for your mother.
There is no gurantee visa will be granted or no as New Dellhi is notorious sometimes declining the visa for Seniors.
The itinerary should show she is visiting for couple of months - if you show summer dates ie better.

Regarding the exit to US - if you do it more than 2-3 times - according to me you are putting your mother and yourself under scanner . If the intent is that your mother will be staying back .
the correct way is to extend the tourist visa or super visa once she has visited Canada perhaps 1 year - later you should do that .

not right away.

You need to have 3 years tax returns to apply for parents sponsorship program depending what the govt proposes - for Pgp Program for parents

Hope this info helps a bit

And btw this visa forum is only for Pgp applicants tho....might be you can get more information in the website for this topic.

All the best for your Mom

Today I received a letter to pay biometrics' fee. My parents had biometric two years ago when they got visitor visa. I know they should pay the fee and now I wanna know do they need to do biometric one more time?
I have seen somewhere that biometrics are valid for 10 years.
