Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[vermas]

Why are you doing all this??? One month before their visa expiry, apply for visa extension. The decision for visa extension comes in 4 months which means they can stay in CAnada for 4 months. And hopefully you get PR decision by then. You can apply online and fees is just 100$. Online extension must be submitted atleast 1 month before expiry.

Thanks. I am aware of it. But I am taking them for a holiday and hoping that re-entry will revalidate their stay.

When I spoke to a border officer he mentioned that you have to go back to home country to get new validity.

My parents file got transferred to NDVO at the background checks stage at end Nov. They have been here on visitor visas since 9 Aug 2019. So their 6 months stay will expire on 8 Feb 2020. I have taken them to the US twice but passport was never stamped as usual. I am taking them for one week holiday to Punta Cana (Dominican Republic) in mid-Jan. As they will re-enter by air, I believe their 6 months stay will be revalidated from that day. Hope my assumption is correct.

You can renew their visa online. it should be done 30 days in advance of the expiry of the current visa. once your application is filed, your parents will go on implied status( a legal status in Canada). IRCC may take 1 month to 3 months to renew your visa. however, your parent's status in Canada will be considered a legal status until their visas are renewed. you should ask for renewal for 5-6 months to avoid any delays which may cause due to the slow process of NDVO.

Another option is when you cross the border on the car while return you can request immigration officers to extend and explain the situation they have authority to extend visas. one of my friend's parents' visa was extended on their request at the border for 1 year.

My mom's Local Visa Office is Ankara because she was in Iran when I sent the application, but she is in Canada now. Her visitor visa has expired so she can't come back until she receives the landing visa if she goes back now. Can I change the LVO to Mississauga? Would that make the process faster?

no you cant change.

Could this be due to fact that they hold supervisa and have visited Canada twice.

Same is the case with me... My mother is also on Super Visa and is in Canada and I got Mississauga as my Visa Office.

Many super visa holders staying here for years didnt get CPC mississauga. So not sure what is happening and how they are assigning. Some other nationals, there parents never visited canada hold no visa and they got CPC mississauga.(one of my close friend is one example)
What residential address did u mention for your parents in forms?

Mailing address Canada as I am representative and residential address Pakistan
