Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[SatheshDyn]

Can anyone help me here

I have initiated Visitor Visa for my mom and she received her Bio-metrics collection letter however NO VAC opened in India till date. How can I get her Visitor Visa? Do we know when Biometric center will be opened?

Also I see the link https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/coronavirus-covid19/visitors/immediate-family.html#temporary where they mentioned to get authorization letter through email to reunite with an immediate family member who is living in Canada temporarily.

Do we have any format to write email to IRCC? Can any one share pls? I'm in Canada for the last 1.5 yrs under WP, will this work out?

I also saw it in the application status and not in CIC portal. I believe CIC portal will get updated after they land.
@KarthickRajRamesh are you planning to call your parents on visitor visa or you would be waiting for the PPR ? Because nobody has an idea when would they start sending out PPR to outland applicants.

Yes I agree thats true....CIC portal will be updated only at the end

I am planning to bring them into Canada....unfortunately their vistor visa is expiring on mid October 2020......Air India (VBM) (only International possible now) is not allowing to board flight if they dont have 3 months validity in visa.....and applying new vistor /super visa will take long time now (~150- 180 days)
So my only option is it wait for PPR

the sponsorship application status for Primary Applicant says "Decision Made" but PR Application Status is "In Progress"

a tad bit strange as my spouse's parents haven't even gone for the biometrics and are currently not in Canada.

sorry what is AOR?

Acknowledgement of Receipt (for your application)

Congratulations. It seems that you are the first June applicant who got a decision made for PA. It seems that your visa processing center is New York. Are you or the PA based out of the USA?

Thanks,
Yes the processing centre was transferred from Mississauga to New York in december. PA is from India, but currently in Canada on Super Visa.

Hi Manim

congratulation

Did you inform cic via webform that principal applicant is in Canada ??

also do we have to inform cic that sponsor status has changed from PR to citizen ?

I don't think you need to inform that.
Do I need to inform CIC that the PA is in Canada as I haven't done so? The letter which we received just mentioned to send the passport to VAC in New York if PA is in India or Ottawa if the PA is in Canada. It didn't had any instruction on informing the CIC.

Does anyone have any idea when VAC will open in INDIA?

how do i reach out to CIC to inquire about my file? May 24th submission, my file is with CPC M, medicals were done and cleared in Nov 2019 and additional docs were requested and submitted on Jan 20th, received confirmation Jan 21st that documents were recieved. nothing since then.

any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

This seems to be a test pilot coping with recently-approved applicants residing in Canada. On August 24 the eCAS status for PA changed to "decision made"; on August 28 I received a call from IRCC inquiring whether both my parents are currently residing in Canada. If yes, they'll proceed with virtual landing to bypass the physical landing process at port of entry. My parents are out of country and hence unable to participate. Still awaiting for the next communication from Hong Kong VO (whether PPR email or GCKey approval).

Which number did the call from IRCC came?

How do I check my application status? I have a temporary application number when they sent me an email for an additional doc. Pls help

Which number did the call from IRCC came?

It showed "No ID" from the IRCC call.

Hello all,

I have 2 questions:

1) waiting for any updates since March 20 after getting dm2 from cpc-m. Is there any point in ordering gcms notes at this point?

2) can my parents come to Canada on visitor visa right now and once they get COPR, they can go see an officer in Canada? They are waiting to come here asap.

I have a question: We are in South Africa, our LVO is Pretoria, and we are being sponsored by our daughter who lives in Alberta.. We received an AOR on 4 Oct 2019, did our IME on 12 March 2020, received request for further information, which was all submitted, and our last documents (PCCs and further medical information) as requested were sent in on 11 July 2020. We received a Pre-Arrival Letter on 20 August, from IRCC, inviting us to register with the pre-arrival services offered by IRCC. We have not heard any more, Does anyone know how long it then should take to get our CORP letter? and PPR? What is the next step we can expect? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
