Hong Kong timeline

It won't hurt anything to order GCMS notes, the order process is about 60 days anyways.

Bulletin 2 is a good sign...Things are moving forward slowly.
BGC can be fast or slow depending on what they decide.
Given the current situation I would expect even slower now.
Stay safe.

thanks！

If you are acting as the representative then you will receive an email, otherwise your spouse
will receive the email from HK. Keep checking your messages and junk folder.
Our GCkey was never updated.

thank you!

Guess a lot of people are leaving HK for good these days. So sad

May I ask where are you going to be settling in when you get here?

I have a question, I seen that all visa offices in China will be closed until February 10 2020, so does that mean, they have a full freeze on sponsorship applications in Hong Kong being processed because of the coronavirus? Thanks

Hi, you can follow Canada in Hong Kong and Macau visa office Facebook account. I found out they announce the working time and related info immediately, including the interview arrangement.

Thanks for finding the link to this information. So this means they will be working at limited staff, to process sponsorship application, I guess? I wonder with all this coronavirus situation, background check couldn't be completed as maybe the Chinese government not concerned about something so small. if so I totally understand. saving lives is far more important.

i Emailed them and they said


Thank you for your message. All files are being processed as normal, but there may be delays. Scheduled interviews are still being conducted as usual with no delay.

If you have specific questions regarding your case, please email the Immigration Section at the email address above. We cannot answer case specific questions here. Thank you.

Got DM in ECAS last Friday (Jan. 24), but no update in GCKey account and no PPR email yet.

Congratulations!

Hi guys,

Have a couple of questions and I think many of you may have came across it already in your journey thus hope to save me some little time searching for answers and I thank you and much appreciate it beforehand.!!

I'm at the stage of preparing the required additional information as per request by the IRCC. 3 things collectively and they are:

1. Revised Schedule A to include my spouse's previous address when she reached 18 of age
2. Hong Kong Police No Criminal Certificate
3. Credible Evidence of our plan to move to Canada

Questions:

1. I understand the process for applying the CNCC from the HK Police, however do believe they will mail it directly to the HK Canadian Embassy in Quarry Bay. There's a upload button / section particularly for this, those who came across did you upload the receipt from the HK Police or a self written letter indicating the process has been completed and it will be mailed directly with a lead time of 4 weeks?

2. Whilst the 'Additional Information' letter by the IRCC request to use only 1 method to provide the information i.e WebForm or GCKey. I only see 2 available buttons for uploading (Schedule A & Police Certificate respectively). Not sure if anyone here have came across my situation with regards to the required information but for those who have did you combined the 'Credible Evidence(s)' with Schedule A for the upload i.e. a zip file containing a cover letter + the contents?

Much appreciate this and thank you in advance, cheers and happy Chinese New Year ahead to all.!!

1, Just prepare a letter to declare you had applied the CNCC with the receipt image.

2. There is a bug in GCkey for 'Credible Evidence(s)' upload. I have pointed out this issue with screen capture to IRCC. When you daily login in GCkey, the upload button for 'Credible Evidence(s)' will suddenly come out for a while. Yes, a while, it will be disappeared suddenly. At that time, I didn't know the bug. I just uploaded the updated Schedule-A in GCkey (limit 4MB file size), and uploaded 'Credible Evidence(s)' in WebForm (limit 2MB file size) separately. Since I kept on trying, I found this software bug. I uploaded the 'Credible Evidence(s)' in GCkey when I saw the button in GCkey.
