The issue is not about surrendering my Indian citizenship. I can do that later as well. The main issue is that I can't travel outside Canada, using my Indian passport and Canadian citizenship certificate. I believe I can no longer use my Indian passport to travel now, since I am officially a...

Thanks for the response. How much time will it take for the legal name change from Vital Statistics office? I am concerned that if I wait for the name change before applying for my Canadian passport, then I can't travel outside Canada for that time period. I am thinking to get the Canadian...

Hi, I am in a similar situation. I got my Citizenship certificate couple of days ago. The issue with my name is that I have my full name under "Given name" and my "Last name" is blank. I want to correct this by putting my surname under the "Last name" section. Also, I don't want to be in a...

Can you post the link of the portal where I can submit a similar query? Thanks

@civiluv24 How do you know your file was transferred to the local visa office? Where can I check the same for my mother's application?

Hi everyone, I had applied for my mother's Super Visa on June 15. We had completed the Biometrics on August 2. However, after the new guidelines from IRCC, I had re-applied on September 11. We got the request for medical, which was completed on October 4. However, post this, there has been no...

was this Super Visa or normal visa?

Are you currently in Canada? If yes, then this is the customer service number for IRCC: 1-888-242-2100

@Abhiancha Hi. My mother got her biometrics done around August 14 and it got updated on her application in 2-3 days. Not sure why the biometrics are not updated in your case! You should call the IRCC to understand the reason. After the biometrics, we were also waiting for the medical request...

Yes, Super Visa is always for immediate family members. I had also applied for my mother's Super Visa in June this year and had got the Biometrics done in August but had not heard after that. After the new IRCC recommendation, I have re-submitted a new Super Visa application using the same...

Given the above update, do SUPER VISA applications need to apply again? Because in form 5257, when we use "Super Visa" as an option, the "other" field is disabled and hence we cannot enter "Covid-19" as the reason.

From the research I have done, I think you simply have to create a new application under the same GC Key account. You don't need to create a new account.

From what ever research, Yes, Super Visa applicants will also have to re-apply if you want to get the applications processed at a fast pace.

Hi all. I am also confused by this latest change and would appreciate if someone can answer couple of my queries. I am a Canadian PR and I had submitted a SUPER VISA application for my mother, who is currently in India. I had submitted the application on June 15 and my mother got her biometric...

I have the same confusion in regards to 5707 vs 5645? I am applying online for my mother's Super Visa, who stays in India. The Document Checklist (IMM 5484) have IMM 5707 as the Family Information form. However, when applying online via GCKEY account, the Family Information form requested is...

Just a follow-up query on my mother's Super Visa application- Since we need to mention the duration of the trip in the Invitation letter or Purpose of travel letter, I was thinking to mention the length of the visit as 7 months from September-21 to March-22. Is that a reasonable duration to...

The health insurance is refundable and you will only pay for the time period that your mother stays in Canada (provided that you don't seek a claim). If you take a claim, then their are certain other conditions. But generally, you can get a refund for the remaining time period when your mother...

That makes sense! Thanks for the clarity!

Yeah agree, the process will take some time. Thanks.
