Hello everyone. I am new here on this forum. Could you please help me to write a resume for parents and what are the country specific requirements?
Welcome to this forum. For "Country Specific Requirements", please refer to the country specific requirements listed for spouses, as these documents are applicable to parents and grandparents. Country specific requirements can be found on IRCC website here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/spouse.asp

As for the resume for parents, it can be as simple as one page on a word document. Just include the full name, and education and employment information from the age of 18.

Hi everyone, I have a question about submitting PCC/Travel document/IMM5562/Resume via email. Given then 5mb attachment restriction, can we submit the requested documents in separate emails? And how strict are they on the attachment size?

Hi, where did you read about the 5 MB file size restriction. When I sent passport for my mom via email, the file size was close to 9 mb. I did not receive any error message.

After PPR, the visa office will issue immigrant visas to applicants.
They have to land in Canada to become PR within the validity of medical (one year).

Parents will travel to Canada after getting visa. If they are here, they have to go to another country and make landing to become PR.
Thank you for the great info.
Where should we send the passports to? I'm thinking how should the parents send the passports From home countries? If posting passports is possible at all

Third bullet point in the section after email address and address to send in physical copy says:
"please note that we can only accept unzipped PDF, JPG or .doc files that are attached to an email, totaling less than 5 MB".

Email is from CPC Missisauga. I guess it's good that the email doesn't get rejected due to attachment size then!

Thanks for clarifying. You are right. I see that line in my letter too. Now I am wondering whether I should resize the passports and resend the file. Hmmm

Very good. Good thing that your parents got US visa I was about to get my father but the appointment for interview in Toronto will compromise the deadline for the bio.. hope everything goes well for your parents..
I guess you can just go to canadian port of entry (land border) to do Biometrics by showing them request letter and paying fees. I'm pretty sure you can do there too

@mimistry,

Hi,

Congratulations on receiving the passport request. May I check whether they asked your parents for biometrics? I am assuming they were already in Canada at the time of application and did not receive biometrics request. I appreciate your clarification.

Also when you initially sent the copies of passport, did you only submit copies of the latest passport? Or copies of all passports (including old passports) to show records for any travels in the past 10 years?

Thanks

Hi Folks,

Got a question regarding country specific requirement. (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/spouse.asp) When I select spouse and my country, the result shows: There are no extra forms for this country. However under "instruction for documents", it indicates that a document called "Hukou" is required.

My questions is which one of the below is correct:

A. No action is required because the result shows "There are no extra forms for this country"
B. Action is required. Need to submit "Hukou" as per the "instruction for documents"

Many thanks !
