hi guys, we are from 2019 PGP, could you please let us know if your parents already gave biometrics before for visitor visa and it is still valid then do you need to give them again? And if so how long after submission do you receive the biometric instruction letter? Thanks a lot!!!

Hi guys,
Can someone please tell me if I need to submit the certified copies of my passport, my parent's passports, and my birth certificate for 2019 pgp application. The document checklist just states that photocopies are required.

Also, do I need to pay biometric fees if my parents are already in Canada on supervisa.

Thanks,

How did you submit your PCC, email?
Did the status change or was it reflected in ECAS that PCC is received?

Hey,

Sorry for a delayed reply. I have linked the paper application to online account and I got upload link in there, so uploaded the PCC, and it was too fast, just after 4 days they sent PPR.
Thanks

You are expected to provide a marriage certificate if you are sponsoring both of them. So, in your case, divorce paper is required. If you don't send it along with your application forms, CIC will ask for it later and it will only cause delay in processing. So, just send in all the supporting documents even if they are not listed. The easier you make it for CIC to process your application, the better it is for you and your mom.

I'd say you do not need to send a copy of her degree or national ID. She's not immigrating to Canada using her education. Unless CIC needs those documents to identify her or to verify her graduation date etc, you don't need to send them.

I didn't send the certified copies of passport. But, my birth certificate was translated and notarised because it is in a language other than the two official languages of Canada - English and French. I'd advise you do the same at least for your birth certificate. I know the checklist states photocopies are required. But, there's a section on documents that are NOT in official languages of Canada. Those documents must be translated and notarise.

If it is given once, it should be good for 10 years.

Certified copies are not required. Also, if biometrics not required, no fees needed to be paid.

Does anyone know if passport stamps for parents need to be translated too or the first few pages are enough?

when you check the validity of the biometrics here (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/biometrics.asp), the website clearly says if you have applied for visitor visa before and you want to apply for PR now and your biometrics is still valid, you need to do it again.

On Financial Evaluation for Parents form, if you never have sponsored anyone before (except your current undertaking which you are applying for), do you still need to add any info on section in 9 and 10?

Dear friends,
I have got the invitation to submit documents for my parents. My parents got their Visitor Visas in July last year when biometric was not applicable. I understand that they being from India will need to give biometric for PGP.
I will be sending completed application forms and supporting documents next week.
My parents are booked to arrive in Canada in August on Visitor Visa. If they get IRCC letter for biometric while they are in Canada, what will be the options?

Hello All, I don't have my marriage certificate as I got married in INDIA recently and did not got opportunity to register it, what are my options while applying for my parent sponsorship. Also is there any specific document for my parents need to be attached

Thanks, it is a new thing for me. However, I still feel that they may not request for it.

I have a question regarding parents name on my Birth certificate or school certificate..

there is only First name ( given name) of my parents on my birth certificate and my school certificate but there is no last name at all. Both of my parent have last names on their passport. would it be ok ? or need some sort of affidavit. ? please advise.

I too have the issue of missing names on my birth certificate, could you please share what action are you taking. I am a PGP 2019 applicant.
