Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

There is unfortunately no Chinese embassy in Hong Kong, as the city is technically part of China now, its special status makes it hard to gain access to Chinese official documents. it has a Chinese ’intermediary‘， that helps with appying for other visa and docuemnts, but not PCC, and also, the PCC requires past record of my parents stay in China, which it’s been decades since they left and there I am not sure if they have anything to prove their old residency, so not sure if they can still apply for the PCC. If anyone has similar experience in the past, I would love to learn how it was being handled. thanks!

If you have not filled that information in IMM5562 (travel history form), you don't have to include PCC of decades ago.

Does anybody know why the process is almost stopped. two months ago, the number of update in applications was a lot higher than the last 2 months and I am not sure when we will see any progress.

It was requested... So I don't think that can be ignored.

Hi All, today we received the passport back from Ottawa and with original 2 photos we sent, we are still waiting for COPR, is it normal to receive 2 photos back which we sent to CPC Ottawa?

Yes it's normal. You must have received a covering letter mentioning that visa office will contact you. Now virtual landing will be processed.

I have read somewhere that the PCC can be acquired through agency. Although I haven't gone through that myself. Try to search for PCC in China in this forumn.

I apologise in advance for this question but I can't seem to find the webform. We wish to apply for GCMS notes and I found the route via the general site but it implies that it's quicker to use webform directly via IRCC. Try as I might I can't see a webform. Could anyone point me in the right direction please. Many thanks for your help.

My mother's medical exam will expire tomorrow. But my dad's medical exam is valid until April 2021. Will both of them be required for a 2nd medical exam? Any idea?
