Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2017

[spy118]

Hi all!
Appreciate if anyone can help me:

I'm not sure if Medical results for "NEW" super visa will be used for a sponsorship application as well? If so, how long it would be valid?

I'm planning to apply (either super visa or regular temp visitor visa) for my parents, my sponsorship application is still pending (who knows when I go to the next step) and thinking the only advantage of super visa for my situation would be using the same Medical exams (as of costs, not redo exams,etc) otherwise regular visitor visa would be fine.

Thanks!

It might be acceptable but remember the medical expires in 1 year and you never know when will you be asked for it for the PGP app.
To avoid wasting money; I'd go with visitor visa, normally it's granted for up to 2 years and ideally your PGP application would either be complete or at final stages by then.

Hi

I am 2017 PGP Applicant. I got sponsorship approval and file has been transferred to New Delhi in January.

Now both of my parents are in India now. They have super visa and would be coming to Canada in July.

What happens if they receive medical and PCC request while they are in Canada.

1. Can they do medical and pcc in Canada even if the file is transferred to New Delhi?
2. Do I have to inform cic when they come to Canada and how.

Thanks in advance for replying.

1- Medical can be done anywhere in the wold through a panel doctor but it might cost a lot more in Canada as compared to India.
PCC is local and each country/state have their own process to obtain it. It might require an interview with the local authorities.

2- I don't believe IRCC needs to know if they're visiting Canada.

Thanks. But it will be acceptable 100% if parents being asked before medical expiration date or it is might be yet?

No, those who applied last week of july and first week of August (with parents who are not on super visa) received AOR around Nov.20. But since then, no communications from CIC (E-cas was updated around Jan 25 saying that tthey started processing the SA on Jan 25).
If I make comparison with other applications, it seems that it took recently 4-6 weeks once they start processing your SA to get Sponsorship approval.
As I already said, it is a lil bit frustrating as there are some in similar situations but applied 1-2 weeks before us who are now on medical step. Grrrrrrrr.

Hi kingtor, i saw that you already had a decision made for your application. Was that a PGP application submitted in 2017?

 

[timer2347]
