Hi All,

I got the PPR two days ago, and yesterday staus has changed to DM.

I have two questions:
1- For the updated information chart, should we mention the sponsor details on spouse field or not?

2- My wife did the photos today for her and for the kids, but the size are a little different, they are 7.5 × 5.5 cm, instead of 7 × 5
And from head to chin they show about 42 mm where it should be between 31 and 36 mm,
Will that cause an issue? Should I ask her to redo taking the photos on proper size?

I would HIGHLY recommend getting the pictures redone. And bring in the instructions to show the photographer. I have heard of people getting pictures re-requested a couple of times, so they seem to be picky with the picture... No use risking delaying your application by sending pictures that you know do not meet the requirements.

They requested me medical on 25th july 2017. They send me request again on 27 th july morning and I did my medical in 27th july noon. But i didn't see my another request. Everything was same , except IME number. Still they are reviewing my medical result . Should i need to worry about this??

Hey again everyone,
Where can I view my application status? The online portal is stuck at Application received on the 10th of February with no other updates. And my MP is unresponsive. I'm currently visiting my wife but I will be returning to Canada shortly to follow up with the MP.

My application was done with the help of an immigration agent who handles the process, however he seems to be quite slow and lazy at accomplishing things and answering questions (hooray for me).
I've noticed that everyone on this site has clear indications when it comes to AOR, PPR, etc. Where could I access that information? I'm genuinely lost. Imigration agent insists that everything is going okay, and has a no news is good news approach.

Hopefully I can get everything cleared up when I return to Canada, but in the mean time, any information would be greatly appreciated.

Wow, that's fast, only 4 months from background check in progress!


The below email is what I received 2 weeks ago from HKVO (I guess that's AOR2), after submitting the updated Schedule A and PCC:
