Dear all,

I need advice on this.
I got a message in my PR profile online that "Action Required" when I go in and try to click "View Message" I am unable to see the letter as attached PDF.
However when I do and see my View Submitted profile then I see a document is required and that is Marriage Certificate. I already provided that at first they need it again why? It also says Replacement Needed in front of my Marriage certificate upload area. What should I do? Should I just upload same old certificate as earlier because I have nothing else.
Please advice.

Thanks
Are you opening the pdf in Adobe? I found that I can't view them in Edge, but if I open them in Adobe I can see them ok.

Is the thing you uploaded titled "Marriage Certificate"? I have seen people asked to upload a marriage certificate if the document they originally uploaded says "Register of Marriage" on it. Seemingly they are separate documents.

The only thing we have in Pakistan is marriage certificate which is registered already with pak govt.
I think they forgot to attach the letter with that option or something. When I click on view message link the browser gives me an error of file not found.

If medicals are extended, then status will change back to Passed. The status you are currently having means you are back to square one regarding medicals...you have to re-do it when they will ask or they will extend. But at this moment, medical is simply Expired. It is the same status you have when you put application in very beginning before it changes to Passed. In my opinion, meds is not a bif concern, its SS which is worrisome because once you are in, there is no timeframe. Better luck to all of us who are facing this situation.
Thanks for the info. I am definitely under SS from what I saw in the GCMS notes. But I keep telling myself its been a year, how much longer would it take? I’m going to raise a CSE next week for them to extend them. At least I wouldn’t have to incur the cost of new medicals for myself and my spouse due to the delay.

If they feel to extend it, they will do it without you asking them. If they won't, then any of your email or CSE would fall on deaf years. Once you would be out of SS, they will ask you for remeds, and you will be happier to pay the cost again coz it would then be finalizing your application.

I am sponsoring my husband and we applied on June 14 2017
we have recieved additonal docs
medical
pcc from both pak and uae
and than we got our pre arrival in feb and thats the day our bgc started and there has been no response since than. I contacted my mp and he said the following...

Hope all is well. Just wanted to give you an update on what immigration has said.


Looks like nearly everything is concluded on the file, however, the only thing that is pending is the completion of the Security verifications. It is usually not possible to say how long security verfications might take, however, it is possible that internally they are expecting the process to wrap up in a few months at the most.


They have extended the validity of the medical clearance until Aug 4th – likely with hopes that they will be issuing a PR by than


Could you pleasse guide as to what i should do now thanks

Unfortunately, there aren't many options besides what you've already done. I've been told that I'm in the similar situation in regards to security and was also advised that it'll be concluded by late summer / early fall. I'm May 2017 AOR but a different category to your husband.

Thank you so much. I truly wish everyone speedy PPR. If a file isn't sent for SS, average time I have seen for LVO is 7 months - judging from my friends' applications too. The only one that stretched into 9 months was because he added his newborn twins. It will end in good glorious praise.
Please how long did it take to ppr, mine is 6 months and. Week so you get an adr

Hey Guys,
1 question.
I received my PPR today and i think the validity of my visa will be until 7th May next year. If I receive my PR Card and come back to UAE where I am working, can I apply for my wife's PPR as well. My wife was not included in my original request but I have submitted her PCC and medicals in my original application because they were compulsory even if my wife was not accompanying me to Canada when i applied last year.

I saw an option in processing time on IRCC website that you can apply from outside Canada for family sponsorship.

No you cant.
You have to provide last 1 year tax return to apply for spouse visa.

Hello

I have received Adr of passport biopage of mine & spouse and height and eye color details.

I am Feb 13 AoR EE Pnp London Vo.

Should I again scan passports bio page or send them the same ones which i sent earlier and were clear enough.

They haven’t asked for clearer copy but just bio page of our passports.

Also what are the chances of ppr on this. I haven’t received ghost update but just Adr.
