Good day,

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.

We verified the information you provided and can confirm that the application is still in process.

All the required documents and information have been received by the responsible office for the moment.

Due to the ongoing situation related to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), some IRCC offices are currently operating with reduced or critical staff only.

We are working on processing applications as quickly as possible; however, processing times are affected and any disruption caused by COVID-19 is not reflected accurately on our website. We will make all the necessary efforts to finalize the application as soon as possible.

Rest assured that you will be informed as soon as a decision is reached or if additional information is needed.

Help needed.
Can we ask for re-medical exempt due to COVID? Any one has any success?

Medical passes and expired a year ago.
Parents live alone in home country, exam has to be done in a different city than where they live and need to stay overnight. No one can take them.
I cannot fly back in middle of pandemic to take them to the exam. (More because the home country is restricting travellers, so I will be denied entry at the port

Any advice is appreciated

Hi Team, This is a revert I got from NDVO. Can you suggest with your experience how much time it may take to get all this steps done...

You only got approved as a sponsor and nothing happened after. Unfortunately, there is currently no timeline for processing PGP applications.

I believed this response you received is from your MP. After you sent your file to Ottawa it got moved to CPC-Missisuaga for further processing. Your file is not in NDVO.

Were your parents in Canada, when you sent this application? I have noticed many applications got stuck when they were talking to waveoff Biometrics for applicants already in Canada but, eventually started taking bio at Service Canada.

@Paul09 .
Yes I guess that time parents were in Canada on tourist Visa and file have been sent from Brampton.

Do u think this will ever get processed...
I'm into same boat, and I believe there are many more. They are only processing the applications which they are half through. I don't know when they will be looking at these applications, but definitely they are not going to prioritize these anytime soon.
Only option I see.

I would say keep emailing your MP, every month, although they ask to wait 3 months. Keep calling ircc every now and then.

Other than waiting I don't think we have any option left.

Hi,
I just got an update to provide the following:

> Client Information: Receipt of information from client Please provide updated residential
addresses for yourself and your spouse. If you or your family member are currently residing in Canada, please also
provide the projected time period of your stay (dd/mm/yy to dd/mm/yy).
This must be received at this office by: 2021/05/25

The email was addressed to principal applicant (my father).

1. Is this a form?
2. If not, any template?
3. How do I respond? (I am the sponsor and their representative)
4. Residential address would be where are are living currently in their home country? Please confirm :)

Any additional advise please

Thanks.
