I think its better to renew now and inform the embassy with your new passport copy. Its better if you contact them first, this is their email address. colombo-im-enquiry@international.gc.ca What's your timeline if you don't mind?

do you mean the percentage bar in GCKEY? that one is there just to show you how many months remaining for one year. useless.. its not tracking our application progress.

For most of us after medical result. Background and Security check started and once its done and passed we will get pre arrival letter then passport request for visa stamp.

I understand, all of us going through very difficult time. Its just waiting game and we have to patiently wait for it. Colombo office takes forever to process applications even to review documents we submitted.

Yes they asked us to provide an explanation letter and we submitted through GCkey since then its showing same message with the date. Its been a month now so we emailed the embassy, they said it will not change till one of their officers review it.

complicated one.. I've never seen before anyone got pre arrival letter before medical and background/security check get done. you also did Bio-metric after medical :oops:. 7 months took to transfer file to Colombo? well at least your long waiting is done anyway. when are you planning to fly to...

I see many got pre arrival letter within 3 months even December applicants. What I think applicants who have travel history take time to complete their background and security check since embassy will do the check in every country that applicant visited. Maybe I am wrong. I don't know.

There is no any restrictions for immediate family member of Canadians except you will have to quarantine for 14 days once you land to Canada. Whats your timeline if you don't mind?

guys how long does it take to receive pre arrival letter after the medical?

There is already one from US. Sadly many people don't update tracker sheet.

whats your timeline?

any new updates guys?

congratulation! long wait is finally over for you.

thanks!

Yes. They asked us additional documents very next day after they sending Meds request letter to my wife. I never heard from anyone that they were asked additional documents after Pre arrival letter. As I know all got COPR or passport request letter after pre arrival letter. Your case is different.

Just two officers for all? no wonder why it takes so long to do background check.

Wow then its been more than a year. I am surprised they asked you additional documents after sending Pre-arrival letter.

whats your timeline?

They might be working on your file.

Did you check steps under "Details about your application status" ? Maybe one of those steps got changed or updated.
