Hello Everyone
I applied for PHAC on compassionate ground for my mum to come to Canada for post natal care ?high risk pregnancy) and I got this reply.this is the reply I got.
Does this mean I do not need it?
We are reaching out to you from the Compassionate Exemption Team at the Public Health Agency of Canada in regards to your application for exemption from the COVID-19 federal travel restrictions for compassionate reasons.
Based on the information you provided in your application, an exemption through the Compassionate Exemption Program is not required, and your application will now be closed. Your application indicated that you meet the Government of Canada requirements of fully vaccinated travellers.
To qualify as a fully vaccinated traveller, you must have received the full series of one of the following vaccines — or a combination of vaccines —
approved by the Government of Canada, at least 14 full days prior to the day you travel.
If you have recovered from COVID-19, you still need a full series of an accepted COVID-19 vaccine or mix of 2 accepted vaccines.
In addition to the above, you must also ensure that that you meet the following requirements:
· be
eligible to enter Canada on the specific date you enter;
· have no signs or symptoms of COVID-19; and
·
follow pre-entry testing and entry requirements.
Foreign nationals who do not qualify for the fully vaccinated traveller exemption must request an exemption online and receive written approval to enter Canada. Without this advanced approval, you will likely be denied entry.
All travellers entering Canada,
regardless of citizenship, must follow testing and quarantine requirements to keep everyone safe.
It is the traveller’s responsibility to demonstrate that they qualify for the exemption for fully vaccinated travellers. Final determination of whether or not you qualify for the exemption is made by a government representative at the time of arrival at the port of entry.
If you do not meet the eligibility requirements for a fully vaccinated traveller, as noted on the website above, you may respond to this email to provide us with clarification of your circumstances. We will then provide further guidance on how to submit a new application under the Compassionate Exemption Program, if applicable.
Please be advised that an approval under the Compassionate Exemption Program will not impact the processing time of your visa application. Compassionate Exemption Applications will not be processed for the purpose of expediting/prioritizing visa applications. We invite you to contact IRCC if you should have any questions on your visa application or biometrics requirements. Please refer to the IRCC website for more information.
