2011 (May-November) Parents sponsorship applicants join here

[Elizabeth2016]

Yes, I can check their status online. It just states that "We have received your application for Permanent residence on May 20th 2011" and it has their names and addresses. My parents lives in the USA and are duel citizens but when I filed the initial application they were not thus Port of Spain was the LVO. They have no dependents. They applied for FBI police checks a month ago so they have to wait for 2 more months. I am hoping that it wouldn't cause a delay. For anyone who is anxious about not receiving your sponsorship approval or that your online status has not changed, just keep checking your emails, maybe your files were transferred and you weren't informed.

Hey, if you read my post above in red, you will see my scenario is similar to yours that there is no update on ECAS and have not received sponsorship approval yet but have got the request for medical and pcc.

We do have a similar situation. Your file was transferred quickly. Is there a deadline of 30 days to submit medical and police clearance? Were you given a client ID# for the person/persons you sponsored? I am not sure how fast my LVO is or if anyone else from our batch has Port of Spain as their LVO. Each visa office seem to operate differently.
I feel really bad for members who submitted documents ahead of me and are yet to receive approvals or have their files transferred. Maybe those whose files needed a secondary review, or had any changes in their applications are taking a longer time to be approved and transferred.

Yes, the UCI number is mentioned in the emails received for medicals and pcc. There is also a 30 days time limit to get the medicals and pcc.

I hope you hear from CIC soon. We have all waited a long time but it will be over sooner than later. Just give it like a month.

Question for 2011 applicants, who have started a petition.

Do you agree that 2010 applicants should be granted visa first and then your application shall be looked into???

I recommend you, to request CIC to provide you with their PGP Sponsorship Queue handling policy document (more specific to 2010, 2011, 2014, 2015 and 2016).
I do agree with you question, but not until each and every file in 2010 batch is granted with a visa. It’s not practical to wait until all the 2010 files are corrected, re-assessed and processed.
I do agree with you on, CIC / CPC should not open and assess 2011 files until all of 2010 files have been assessed AT LEAST once.
But that is not the situation here. There are lots of folks in 2011 batch whose files have not been opened at least once (this information is from GCMS notes), and there additional documentations were submitted in 2015, and Acknowledgement received stating that application is complete and are in the Queue. And you see folks for 2015 batch getting Approval, Metical, PCC and PP request.
I have requested for a Policy document on How they are handling the queue, i did not have enough luck.
We do not like to go to Immigration Minister on individual basis, have one or two cases addressed here and there. We are trying to bring this to notice with help of collective agreement and it would help every one.

 

[pgp2011]

As 2011 applicant, I agree with that. However, when 2014 and 2015 applicants are getting medical requests, 2011 applicants can't just sit and wait. If you are 2010 applicant, you are more than welcome to prepare and send a petition to the government asking them to process your application before 2011, 2014 and 2015 cases. I would fully support application processing based on the order in which they were received.

CIC is very slow in updating the status. I also received approval in March 2016. File transferred to London - Uk. Received the Medical. Completed the Medical in mid May. But status still show In Process on both categories.
