We are in the same situation as you. We applied the PGP 2019 sponsorship when we were in Canada. We hv stated on our application form under the Canadian address we are residing. No change of address at all since submission of application. Our files still transferred to Singapore LVO. I called IRCC yesterday to ask if our application is considered inland or outland, the officer told me our case is considered outland. So the officer advise us to submit a webform and explain we are still in Canada awaiting to do this biometric. Keep my fingers crossed that this call will eventually come. As I mentioned on the earlier thread that some Canadian Experience Inland applicants already started to receive phone calls according to the tracker as PGP applicants is not on any priority at the moment. Hope this help with your question.
Thank you so much

Received COPR in GCKey account today. I can’t see any documents attached, just information of document numbers.
Do we have to apply for PR cards separately?
did you receive an email message informing you that their was a message in your GC key?

Hello,
I just received an email from Mexico office with a request of my mom's passport. The letter was generic for parents residing currently in their country but included a third page with specific instructions if the parent is residing currently in Canada which is our case. We are going to follow those instructions for parents residing in Canada (copy of letter received, passport and photos basically).

My only concern is how the inland process will be fulfilled, will we received further instructions about it along with the passport with the temporary visa stamped on it? If someone experienced the same process I will appreciate your feedback. Thank you!

Below my mom's general information. Sorry if something is missing but to be honest I haven't understood the whole thing but if some of you needs specific information, do not hesitate to ask.

Regards,

Hi all,

wondering if anyone else is on the same situation.

I received invitation to sponsor my parents on june 19, 2019 and submitted all the documents before June 28, 2019. Haven't heard back anything until now.

Please respond
My documents were received June 27, 2019 and only this week I show up online as Application Received. That’s it.

Calling and making requests on webform will not give you any information. They will just say if you submitted your application no further steps are required as they haven’t started processing your application yet.

I’m thrilled just to see application received! No application number or communication from them yet.

Hi Manuel, congrats!
Would you mind sharing the steps for sending the passport? What the letter says? I’m waiting for that final step

quick question on a quarantine plan... Do each of the parents need to have their own room or can they stay in the same room?...

Hi All,

Apologies in advance in case i am posting on a wrong thread. I am not sure if there is one in place for 2020. I am planning to apply for my mother's PR under a program which will open next year and have a question regarding the same. In my case, i have an elder sister who is autistic and dependent on my mother. Can someone on this forum suggest if i can apply for her PR as well alongwith my mother.. showing her as my mother's dependent child? She is 35 years of age and has a Visitor visa which i got done last year.

I am a Permanent resident in Canada and have been diligently filing the tax for past 3 years and meet the financial obligations required to sponsor 3 family members including myself (as mentioned on CIC Website).

Thank you.. Looking forward for some valuable inputs here.

@robertp @laxsun today I received biometrics request for my mom. Finally some movement from Mexico office. I just sent a web form to inform IRCC that my mom is still in Canada on supervisa and will need to do biometrics in Canada so they could add her name to the list for appointment calls from their agents.

yes, she can apply as well under your mom's dependent child over 19 years old. But be careful to check closely on admissibility
