You are suppose to do what IRCC asked for . Here your dad's RCMP is asked so give it only.
Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019
- Thread starter Garry2008
- Start date
you just need to give IME, the info is in emedical system. call first and they will test you what tests needed
Nothing to be worried. I was looking for your confirmation to put on the tracker.
I wonder if their is any logic that some applications get processed faster than others. I understand popular countries will be slower but I wonder if their are other parameters such as if you have co-signer to be eligible to sponsor can play role as well. I see lot of discrepancy in the processing time within applications received on same day.
I can see application which are received after my date are way ahead of me, while I am stuck still at application received.
I hope it's normal. Thanks!

You should keep the information up to date.

Many factors can affect timeline such as.
Application related factors:
- Is your application package organized and complete?
- Did you send proof of everything, with translations, all in good copies?
- Are you being completely honest with CIC?
Background related factors:
- The number of dependents: This has been reported to affect your application, especially if your kids are older. For spouses, the same principle applies, the easier it is to check on the other applicants, the faster it will be.
- The country you were born in Or lived for long time: The countries with more terrorism and less political stability such as Pakistan, Afganistan, Syria, Iran, and Yemen. These countries will take more time for processing than others. Because the security background check depends on external security agencies and partners, the diplomatic relationship between your country and Canada will affect this. If your country is in good diplomatic relationship with Canada, it will be faster. If not, they will have to use other means to confirm you are not a criminal. They will basically spy on you.
- The country you were born in again: Your application is analyzed by specialists for a cluster/region. Other things like do they speak your language, know your government website addresses, know how things look like, fake website addresses, universities that do not exist, companies and cities. They know everything. That means that, to have those specialists available, that will depend on how many applicants from that region CIC is getting, in other words, if they have 3 employees, the processing time will change if they take 300 or 1000 application per month, plus, how easy it is to verify that information for everyone, meaning, people with delayed applications will cause a delay for everyone. The problems for that country or cluster of countries will be a common problem for everyone in the cluster. That doesn't mean that, if your country get fewer applicants (let's say you are from Monaco, San Marino or the Maldives) it will be faster, because they will probably also have fewer employees or third parties of that cluster since they don't pay for people to do nothing. According to the immitracker, the paper-based inland applicants getting the fastest MR were from USA, China, Korea, Ukraine, and India. If you have been to Canada, I believe it will be quite obvious that Indians and Chinese applicants are not few. Despite that, their applications were going somehow faster, probably because they have more specialists.
- Involvement with the army: If you were male, 18, had to go to the mandatory army and then left, you show this document and that is it. But if you were a Sargeant, then your application processing time will obviously change if you were a Sargeant with the US or UK armies, or if you were Sargeant in Iraq, Russia, or North Korea.
- Religion: Well, sad to say, but it will change if you are related to a Certain Religion. Everybody knows that but nobody wants to talk about it. It is the big white elephant in the room. It will never show up in nobody's GCMS notes.
- Criminal background, criminal activities, general activism, political involvement: If you have a criminal past, please, don't go to Canada. Now, if you were unfairly jailed for a day or went to the station because you were protesting for a transgender thing, free education, whatever, and there was a clash with the police, you were young and stupid, don't try to hide it in your application. If you got a dangerous driving ticket, or even if you punched someone in self-defense, don't hide anything. Anything hidden will severely delay your application.
Now with that said:
-Countries were you live and worked in: Everything said above will apply to each country. I believe it is done simultaneously, so the slower country will be the culprit for your processing time, but I have seen people that live in too many countries having longer processing times.
-Dependents and applicants: Everything said above will apply to each dependent. Unless they are 4 years old.
-Past employment and additional document requests, travels (schedule A): If you change anything that belongs to your background, you have to update them.
