No. It needs to be a close relative.

Chances are extremely low as the last few draws have invites have been for scores of 87 or 88. Additionally, your job NOC should not be on the exclusion list.

Ideally yes. I had similar situation, what I did was to list all the travels with the dates. I added a Letter of Explanation explaining the situation.

The airline might still refuse to board her even with a doctor's note as they might not want to take a risk of having a potential emergency on board at this late stage of a pregnancy. All airlines have their internal rules governing this, so better check with the airline first if a doctor's note...

Yes, it should not be an issue. Not all places have a direct international flight. I believe the only difference at Montreal is that the Immigration Officer will not take the address to mail the PR Card at that time ans will ask you to share it separately.

Status updates are provided by VFS and not IRCC. You will not get any messages from IRCC. Once your passport has been stamped and received by VFS, you will get the next update message.

You will get a message once it is ready at VFS for pickup. Generally, it's 1-2 days after the dispatch message.

VFS cannot provide any information as they have no information on the processing the passport. They are essentially the middlemen who are involved in transfer of passport between IRCC and applicant. Once the passport has reached IRCC, VFS will not have any update on the processing until they...

Did you already get a dispatch message? If yes, you would get another message from VFS 1-2 days after the dispatch message to collect the passport from VFS office.

There is very little chance that you will get it by 12th July. Currently, the processing time is around 30-35 days after the status changes to "in process at IRCC". Reschedule the flight to sometime in the last week of July.

Please share it with me as well, so that I can keep in mind the kind of issues one can face.

The scenario you mentioned was a case where the student did not have an Enrolment Letter and the airline denied him boarding. Having the updated status in the GCKey is not essential as that is not something the airline can check at the time of boarding. A valid visa and COPR letter are...

Stamping is done at the Canadian High Commission in New Delhi. VFS just collects all the passports and send them to IRCC in New Delhi. 4-5 weeks is the ETA currently for the entire process.

If it was for PR, you can check the status in GCKey. If the counterfoil number is generated, you are all good.

That's way too fast. Which country did you submit in?

Received the stamped passport today. Complete timeline in the signature.

Check a little later. If you opted for the courier service then you can track your package on Bluedart's website using your VFS application number as the reference number. Other than that, nothing you can do except wait.

Counterfoil updated. Took some time as GCKey was down for maintenance till 6:30 AM Eastern.
