How long do my parents' passport need to be valid during PGP application ? They are both living in Canada. For the applicants within Canada, do they need to renew their passport if their passports will expire within 8 months ? Thank you.

I am the sponsor of my mother's application. Currently IRCC is working on PPR. I have a urgent question that I am worried about, as a sponsor I have gave birth to a child after I have passed the sponsor's eligibility DM stage, do I need to update IRCC that the sponsor have gave birth to a child (not the principle applicant)? How do I do that? Thank you!!

Hi guys
Its been a month that showing DM1 in ECAS but not received SA letter yet, contacted 3 times and an agent left a note on file regarding sending SA letter. Still nothing.
What should I do?
Also no additional documents or PCC requested however, I have sent PCC on Feb 2020 (proactively ) before my parents left their country and since March 2020 they are here. Do you think they will ask for another PCC as its expierd

Thanks for your help

Yes you need to update them about birth of your child. Send them a webform informing them that you the sponsor had a child and include the birth certificate of the child.
And you will need to maintain your income from this year including your child in family members, in case the PR is not completed by next year, but hopefully the PR application is completed soon.
Good luck

Hi everyone

Anyone who has requested extension to do medical, do you get a reply back?
My parents are currently in Canada and they are going out of Canada for 1.5 month.
Their current medicals are expired since feb 2021. So far i have not got medical request.
In case we get their medical request when they are out of Canada, can we ask for extension as we want to do it here in case pf any followup exams.
Can we ask for extension for this reason?

That means your COPR and PR Visa are issued with this approval. COPR comes with the passport. The date may appear in the approval line that is the validity of COPR.

Thank you Laxsun! we did receive the COPR today! Hurray, the long wait is over
Next step would be for planning their landing, I wonder if anyone landed recently and can provide insight on quarantine steps? Only one of my parents are certifiably vaccinated as per Canada's guideline now. So I am assuming they will need to go into quarantine when they come. How does the booking and transition to the quarantine hotel work? and can I still go to the airport and pick up my parents so that i can send them to the hotel after?

Thanks a million! This forum has been a great place for resources as well as emotional support through out this journey! Best of luck too all still waiting too, things are picking up again finally!

Hi, I have applied for my parents PR on June 4, 2019. I haven't heard back since Dec 2019 when they were asked to do the medicals.

My mom came to Canada in Nov 2020 and I have extended her stay in Canada due to the Pandemic.
Now due to a family situation, she wants to return before the visa for extended stay is approved.

Will it impact her visa in anyway? If the PR gets further delayed, can she come back on the visa again? In other words, when the extension of stay is rejected as she left the country, will the visa still be valid?

Note: For my Mother in-law, when she left Canada before visa extension, her extension was rejected. But her visa also expired shortly after.

Thank you!

SA may be sent via Mail. Call them again or order notes.

Wait for them to ask any further documents and submit only when they request.

leaving Canada will not impact her visitor visa and it is good till its expiry date. She can re-enter Canada provided her visitor visa is still valid for 6 months or more (there may be exceptions too).

Regarding the application to extend the stay, you can withdraw the applications and ask for a refund if they haven't started working on the extension.

Yes, you need to update IRCC on this. This will be reported as "Changes in a sponsor’s circumstances/the family size". Not reporting this may be treated as misrepresentation and may result in refusal.

Call IRCC or submit webform to update IRCC.

It uses to be 6 months, but I have seen they are asking for 12 months now.

I finally figured it out! And have now successfully linked my application to GCkey. For the number of people in the application, it was both my parents, myself, and my husband/co-sponsor (4), NOT just my parents (2), and NOT including our daughter (5) even though she's included for the financial part obviously... I now know the UCI numbers for my parents but there's nothing else to note. "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility".

For anyone else who's still waiting on sponsor approval after 2+ years, will they require more documents from us to show we are financially able to support the parents?

Yes, they can ask for Updated IMM 5768 E Financial Evaluation for Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship and or other documents(CV/PCC/Medical/IMM 5669 E : Schedule A).

Thanks, today ECAS shows : "We sent you correspondence on July 6, 2021 about the decision on your application"
I think it will com via Mail as you mentioned and I didn't have any email yet.
