GCKey Revoked (Landed more than 2 years ago)

[ybjianada]

Hi,

So, I used a GCKey account to apply for PR via Express Entry in 2015. I landed more than 2 years ago. Today, just out of curiosity, I decided to log back into the account. And I was greeted with the message that my GCKey user name and passport have been revoked. I am bewildered. Could others check their GCKey account to see if the same happened?

Would this in any way affect my future citizenship application?

No

Hi @ybjianada I am experiencing the same thing. Did you find a solution to it? Why did it happen? Did it impact your citizenship application. I heard some say we can create a new account and link our UCI number. Will it effect our existing PR in anyway?

I learned that the GCKey login will be revoked if you do not use it for two years. And there is not much you can do to get it back.

This does NOT have any impact on either my PR status, or my ongoing citizenship application.

Yes, you can create a new GCKey account and link your original PR application to that new account. I have done it only recently. The old application is back in the account. But if you choose not to do it, it has no effect whatsoever on your status.

how did you link your old PR application? I have tried with no luck

Try the different fields. I think I succeeded after I used my Express Entry number. But this is nothing to stress about if you can't link the old PR application.
