Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[bluebird0479]

How long did it take to receive the GCMS note? I applied for it a month ago and I have not received anything except a temp tracking number.

I don't think that a consent form and/or fees is required. I ordered GCMS twice regarding sponsorship of my mother and received them. I did not include consent form and notes were requested under Privacy Act which does not require a fees.

I've got passport request for my parents today. Please update my record in the tracker.

They are located in Russia and their case is being processed by Warsaw visa office and the passport request pdf has a following clause:
"Please check if the VFS office of your choice is providing services. Beginning Monday, 2020/09/14, only VFS offices in Moscow and Vladivostok will re-open for business."

One month on both occasions. But this was pre-COVID shut down.

It's so frustrating that my mom is not living in Canada but was assigned to CPC-M. I was hoping her case would be assigned to HKVO.

Now that CPC-M is almost not working and won't transfer out the cases.

Nope.

Similar situation here....my mom lives in Delhi and her file was also assigned to CPC-M. Haven't heard from them since January.

Congrats. You are the second June applicant (as per our list) who has received Passport / COPR request.

Later on files may be transfered to local visa like others here. I think CPC now focusing on inland applicants or outland but now landed inland which is overload. This makes sense why they start transferring files outside canada to local visa

I hope that CPC-M picks up pace. I heard from a few people that IRCC agents are working from home. I might be wrong here but I have only seen progress (for CPC-M) in cases where DM2 was prior to March 18.

As per Recent AoR CIC asking to submit financial Evaluation only in case if not already included in your application.


This letter confirms that your Application to Sponsor a Member of the Family Class was received by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) at the Case Processing Centre in Mississauga on behalf of the following family member(s): ----
Please note that the following documentation will be required for your sponsorship application to determine whether you meet the minimum necessary income requirements to sponsor a parent or grandparent. In order to minimize processing delays, if not already included in your application, please obtain and submit as soon as possible:

I got my mother's application file number in December,19 but it was showing under process still. Today i have seen that under sponsorship heading, they
added this line that processing of application started on September 04. What they will do under this process.

Here is an excerpt from the letter:

'Please note that the following documentation will be required for your sponsorship application to determine whether you meet the minimum necessary income requirements to sponsor a parent or grandparent. In order to minimize processing delays, if not already included in your application, please obtain and submit as soon as possible:  A completed and signed authorization form – IMM 5768 - Financial Evaluation for Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship providing your Social Insurance Number. '

In order to minimize processing delays, if not already included in your application - I already included this form in the application package. Should I ignore this letter? It is so confusing!

Would also include your NOA for 2019.

Would also include your NOA for 2019.

Good day Everyone,

I called IRCC this morning and discussed the letter requesting IMM5768 form again. She reviewed the PR application and mentioned that as the application was sent through mail, she could not review any forms as the officer has not scanned and uploaded them. She recommended sending the same form again which was sent originally with the application package if nothing changed. If something changed/got updated, then asked to advise the officer. Also, she asked to attach a letter mentioning if the officer requires current financials, (as the form mentions financials 3 years prior to the date application was sent) they can feel free to ask for it or check CRA account.

I reviewed the form IMM5768 (which I sent last year) and noticed that I did not elaborate the period of employment and mentioned the annual salary against that period. For ex: If I worked in a company from Jan 2016 till Sep 2019, I mentioned that in one row and listed the annual package under the gross income column. When I looked at the form again, I got confused myself. I believe my thought last year was that I authorized IRCC to retrieve my income information from the CRA, which is why I only listed the annual package.

What I am thinking now is to split the employment history into multiple rows detailing out each calendar year starting Jan 2016 till June 2019 (when the application was sent) and send a letter mentioning the changes I made to this form vs what I submitted earlier and if they require financials (July 2019 till present), they can ask for it or review CRA accounts. Please advise if I should be doing something additional here.


I hope this information helps forum members who received request to resend IMM5786 again. @deepi06, and @ron09.


PS: @canuck78 - I hope I answered your questions. If not, please let me know.

Regards
