Thanks for your response. Given global COVID back log and that we have only 15 days to respond to CIC, the UK Embassy route may be difficult, plus it sounds like a long shot. It was over 50 years ago and I don't know how to create a correlation.
I Got PCC, Medical and other documents, Haven't received Biometrics. GCMS notes says, the applicant in is Canada, probably need to waive the biometrics, Officer review required.
Our timeline is exactly the same and we also didnt have any update since Feb 2020 even my parents are here since last March. I contacted MP so many times and requested GCNote, unfortunately nothing new and used Covid as an excuse for their unacceptable delays. COVID does not seem to be going anywhere and is becoming part of our life and work, Many organizations have adopted the new norm and are back in operations except these guys. Its shameless especially with the IRCC accepting and starting to process 2020 applications and planning to accept another 30,000 new applications in this category for 2021, seems like IRCC's first priority is to collect the application fees.
I feel you all, my timeline is much longer and yes, we are on the same boat, I received nothing since I got AOR. They even start to process the 2020 applications without doing anything for 2019 backlog.
Why can‘t they work from home to process the applications ? I have no any idea what the immigration minister is doing ?
The answer isn't clear enough. So that is why I asked again. Perhaps you need to let other answer if you don't have an answer. Again the question is does one needs to maintain the income after the sponsorship has been approved?

I checked with an immigration consultant. He said you have to maintain your income level until your parents or grandparents arrive in Canada after getting COPR.
Yeah, it is beyond frustrating.
Thank you @danny_scars , sounds good. We have sent her medical information sheet of visitor visa extension via email and webform. Hoping to have some positive response. We'll also book an appointment to be on the safer side. Thank you once again for your help.I sent a webform when I got my mom to do a medical for her visitor extension and they added it to the PGP process. Sadly, my file is stuck in Mexico so I don't know if they actually approved the medicals (for the PGP) done in December but I can see it on the GCMS notes that it has been added to her file.
In your shoes, I'd book the medical for a week or so from now and send a webform. If they accept the one you have you can just cancel the medical appointment
Many are in the same boat that hasn't received anything and both applications are still showing as in-process, including me. Ours received in May 2019.Yeah, it is beyond frustrating.
I double checked our dates etc on CIC today.
Application received Jun 13th 2019. AOR October 24th 2019. Started processing application January 14th 2020 - so earlier than I thought.
16 months of 'In Process' and we haven't even had sponsorship approval. Both sponsorship application and PR application are listed 'In Process'. We more than meet the sponsorship criteria in every way, so it is hard to see what the problem is. Covid 19 is just not a reason enough for it to be this slow. Plenty of others have had Sponsorship Approval way quicker than this.
I emailed our MP yesterday. I also completed the GMCS form for access to our file via Freedom of Information Act. We shall see if anything at all comes out of it. I also called CIC this week and they were less than unhelpful. It was a total and utter waste of my time.
Ranting as I am so fed up with it all
