The information you provided is vague.
Was there a PPR (Passport Request) or did you send your passport to Accra because the principal applicant got eCOPR?
It will be good to have a background to your enquiry.
Thank you.
My understanding is that if you’re in the pilot program, the in-Canada applicant and his/her overseas dependents will get PR about the same time.
You can send IRCC a webform to find out what is causing the delay. Let them know you’re in the pilot program.
Ask the hospital to submit the report. If you submitted it by yourself, you can as well use webform to send it again or contact IRCC to know where the problem is coming from. .
I believe you. Someone in the same category was just approved too and asked to send his passport for visa. He has been rejected previously.
My spouse just applied. Fingers crossed. I will update as it progresses.
Our timeline looks similar. I submitted application April 2021 and got PR June 2022. Still waiting for my dependent whose file was transferred to Accra Visa office May 2022.
Apart from ADR which was responded to August 2022, no update yet.
Only if you’re in what is called Pilot Program. Otherwise, he will get PR first while your application will be handled by your visa office which is outside Canada. The visa office depends on where (country) you’re from.
Their application is already 30 months gone. I am sure you will soon start getting regular communications from the visa office. Conclusion of their processing is near. All the best.
I think that part of the changes made towards faster processing of PR applications, for in-Canada applicants, is that expired medicals are accepted. No need to redo it.
That is for your father to become a Permanent Resident. The lawyer is right. It could also take more that 18 months. I have seen people that theirs took 36 months and counting.
However, that’s for your father. Your own case, being a dependent, is totally different.
