Waiting for next steps. Applied in Mumbai, India
I dont know if theres a rule on this so I just put $10000 here, not sure if thats right thoughHi Folks, Its kind of urgent, I was applying for super visa for my mother. There is a column in Application for visitor visa form(IMM5257) regarding 'Funds available for my stay in (CAD)'. What value should I fill over here. Please note I will be taking care of my mother stay for her entire duration. Any help will be greatly appreciated
Sorry to hear you have lost both parents and you were not able to see them in Canada. I agree the process is hard, lengthy, and unfair. We applied for my in-laws in January 2021 and still have no approval or no request for medicals or anything. I did get an email 2 weeks ago just with a general statement that the application is still pending and due to covid, there are delays. It is almost a year in wait.Hey guys, I generally only come here for checking updates and its been a long time since I had to use this website. Below are my timelines for my in-laws supervisa.
(Original Travel Visa applied in Aug still stuck, gave up on that)
Supervisa Applied: 16-Oct (GCKey)
Biometric: Already done for Travel Visa application
Medical: Upfront
IRCC webform: 19-Nov (after seeing someone's comment here)
IRCC New Portal application: 23-Nov
IRCC Webform asked more details on 23-Nov, but didnt respond.
Passport Request: 26-Nov (from GCKey)
IRCC Portal Automatic Update: Your application was withdrawn.
I have lost both my parents over past few years and they were never able to come visit me to Canada due to illnesses. It affects me when I see people not being able to unite with their parents. So sharing these timelines of my in-laws in hope that they help.
I am generally not active here, but will be for a couple more days if anyone has any questions.
I started with work-permit, PR, Citizenship over last 9 years and the process from CIC has gotten complex and slower over time. I guess its because of the huge volume, but also due to redtape, random rules and policies and overall lack of just doing their damn job.
The fact that people who applied in Feb/Mar are stuck while latest application gets processed is outrageous. Creating 2 streams to submit, then prioritizing one over another...collecting fees on both sides, the whole system is a mess. And over the years, I have lost hope in them trying to fix it.
Anyways, wishing everyone all the best in uniting with their parents and great weekend.
Edit: I used the Webform and IRCC portal application on top of GCKey because that is what I understood by reading some comments, and figured that for CIC, this is the only way I can get their attention (although it meant wasting more money)
it shows" Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility".how to know that? What is the status that will be present before it says 'We are currently reviewing your eligibility'?
No, no communication regarding the medical passed, just saw in the account.Do they send an email to the email address that’s linked to your IRCC portal when application passed the medical?
So this fund has to be shown in my mothers account or I could suffice that information with my bank statements as well?I dont know if theres a rule on this so I just put $10000 here, not sure if thats right though
For super visa you don't need to show bank accounts only your NOA is the key. When we applied we just updated NOA for both husband and wife and pay stubs. and in the form wrote $5K CAD but no proof of his bank account was submitted.So this fund has to be shown in my mothers account or I could suffice that information with my bank statements as well?
How does one know when they release the PPR batches? Is is mentioned somewhere on the portal or CIC/ IRCC website?Yes, there are people waiting for PPR after medicals are passed nearby your timeline. I guess they will release PPR batches on Dec 2 and Dec 5th but let's hope it comes sooner.
They don't mention this information and as I said it's just my own guess. PPR is an automated scheduled release of a request and they are issued in batches or groups for each VO. So, timings can still vary as active VO may issue PPR's every day because of the volume and some once a month.How does one know when they release the PPR batches?

kinda agree with you from the pattern I've seenThey don't mention this information and as I said it's just my own guess. PPR is an automated scheduled release of a request and they are issued in batches or groups for each VO. So, timings can still vary as active VO may issue PPR's every day because of the volume and some once a month.
I wish everyone gets it asap.
