Hi all,

Just a quick question to everyone who had successfully linked to your application.

I was trying to link my application for few days (received AOR on last week), and kept trying to link my mom's application with her passport number.
However, with the passport number it kept failing, so I tried with multiple combination, and finally got it through with her place of birth.

Just out of curiosity, is it something that I need to concern? I double checked the application that I sent, I did enter the matching passport number, but was not able to find/link the application.

How did you guys link the application? using passport or place of birth?

Please advise.

Thanks,
hello ,

I have been trying to link application for my parents for a while. I do have a file number. so I have been using file number and family name option and then passport info but its not working. I will try with place of birth. is there any other pointer you would like to give me so I can link it too. I do have a co sponser ( wife) and i am sponsoring mom and dad and I have two kids. any help is much appreciated.

thanks

Can someone please explain me the process to link the application.

To my understanding in order to create CIC account you need 2 things
1)Sign-in Partner - banking information
2)GC Key - provided to you by government

My parents do not have any bank account in Canada. It means i need to ask for GC key from Canadian govt to create an then link their account ?
M i thinking correctly ?

What are the next steps, if they approve the sponsorship eligibility ?
How long does it take to receive the request for PCC and medicals ?

YULIA-2016 - To my understanding if your parents stayed more than 6 months in any country, they need Police Clearance from that country. But again it could depend on country to country.

CIC is care about full police history, not just last 2 years so sure you need PCC from back home country and all countries where they live 6+ mon

Mine was delivered on May 17 as well but I can't find it on ECAS. What information you used to look up your application?
Hello,
I tried 2 options and both are working for me:
1. My UCI# and my dob etc.
2. Receipt # and my father dob

It all depends how many applications they received on May 17th so may be you will see something very soon.
Good Luck Dear,

Please let me know if you need any other help.

Thank you so much. I am kind of confused. The link says- don’t need.
Dear,
As you know most of the info provided by the group members is only best to their knowledge and some of the info we gather while going through this forum.
The best way to confirm this is to call the immigration and have some patience to wait for around 45 min while you are doing other stuff.
They will be the best resource.

thanks,
