I have the ecas and gic key access both sides just show the application received nothing else at the moment
Now you have three options, apply all.
1. Raise a web form enquiry to cpc- M for the status of your application.
2. Call IRCC 888-242-2100 and if some good officer then definitely you will get the real status. Try to call on and off to get a good officer to respond.
3. Send a mail to your MP explaining the situation and ask for support. If he asked for a consent form, fill it and he will get you the status within a week time. Consent form is mandatory for him to get the details from IRCC. This enquiry will really help to get activate your file.
I'm not sure if you have tried all these options but I suggest you don't loose hope and try again. Now IRCC is also in action as new applications 2020 are also approaching and they want to close 2019 cases as early as possible to the max.

Maybe this will help to easy out lots of minds. Our application was received on June 3rd and stared processing on Nov 6 2019. DM1 was on Nov 20, 2020. As there was no moments in the file nor we have not received any correspondence even after DM1, applied for GCMS notes on Dec, 2020 and received on Jan 27 2021. What we understood was that SSC Alberta has not responded for the first requested sent on Oct 2019 and second request was sent after one year in Oct 2020 and reported back in first week of Oct 2020 on the negative and then the DM1 on the later part of Oct 2020. So the situation is that though we never got the letter DM1 is passed and the application is at V/O app is yet to start and V/O is not working. fingers crossed. At least know that the file has moved.

If everything in India is pretty back to normal, why don't they open Visa Offices and start processing the applications ?

Waiting for PCC and Medical request - NDVO

Hi all,

My wife and I sponsored her parents.
Application received : 19 June 2019
Biometrics requested: Aug 2019 --
My mother-in-law has valid biometrics from 2017 (visitor visa). But father-in-law doesn't, and due to COVID he could not travel to VAC center (Turkey, he is in Iran) .
Application In process: 8 August 2020
Medical requested: 27 Jan 2021

In their cic account it shows "we don't need your biometrics, we let you know if this changes".

My question:
- Did anybody else have similar experience (medical requested while at least one person in application doesnt have biometrics)? What happened next?
- Given the above message and COVID situation, should my father-in-law travel to Turkey to do the biometric anyways or is it better to do medical now and wait to see what happens?

I suggest you email Ankara embassy and inquire about biometrics considering the travel restrictions. Regardless, they need to perform the medicals asap.

Hi,
Request your help.

Status:
- I applied under PGP2019; and my parents' file was proceeding smoothly till Feb 2020.
- They had PCC + medical done. The covid hit and things have come to a standstill.
- My office is CPC-M.

Sadly, my dad passed away 4 weeks ago. He was the principal applicant. My mom was the dependent.
Now I need to make my mom as the principal applicant.

Questions:

I need your help to guide me as to what do I need to do to update their file and make my mom as the PA... and how?
1. Anyone in this situation, can you please suggest - do I need to call them? Or submit webform?
2. Is there any compassionate grounds for processing my mom's file quickly? As I am here in Canada and my mom is now alone in India.
3. Do you suggest I should apply for a visitor / supervisa in parallel?
4. Can an MP's letter help? What's the overall process to do this?
5. Lastly, is there any chance that my mom's immigration application can be refused as my father is no more? Or is this something that happens regularlry (make dependent a PA)?

Thanks for your help.

You should read previous posts from this member. and yes you can switch principle as long as the principal is blood related.

Sorry to hear that, CIC will ask for a death certificate. Send a scanned copy to them via webform.
