Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019
- Thread starter Garry2008
- Start date
I am not 100% sure, but i think this happened with some people last year too and that was like an update, you may see some update in next few days.
Congrats for PPR !
Could you share with us the date for the request of your parents current address please ?
Thanks
@lenalucky They have asked me to fill Imm 0008 form again and I see an option for grand child as a dependent on there. I also come across the following info
Requirements for parents and grandparents
Assessing dependants
When a sponsored parent or grandparent includes a dependant on their permanent residence application, there must be acceptable evidence of the relationship between the sponsor and the parent or grandparent, as applicable. There is no requirement for an officer to establish a relationship between that dependant and the sponsor – a sponsored parent or grandparent may include a dependent child or grandchild who is not related by blood to the sponsor.
An officer must be satisfied that there is a genuine relationship between the principal applicant parent or grandparent and any spouse, common-law partner, dependent child or dependent grandchild they include on their permanent residence application.

Hello folks,
My parents' application received date is June 06, 2019. They completed their medical exam and medical passed in Feb 2020. Had nothing until yesterday when they received another medical request and a request to update a couple of documents. My question is:
Their last medical test was done in Canada and they haven't left Canada since then.
According to this article they don't need another medical request:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/notices/temporary-public-policy-exempting-some-foreign-nationals-canada-requiring-immigration-medical-exam.html
What is the best approach to proceed? Just finish another medical(avoid further delays) or send a web form asking details about this(the deadline is in about a month - not sure if they will respond before that).
Any inputs/suggestions appreciated. TIA!

Thank you
The address information came with the second medical request on June 12. I provided the information on June 17.
Why do they need to go to Turkey ? Is there any agency that they can submit their passport through them?
I don't see a problem to travel to Canada but not sure how their landing works. I think it is better to call IRCC and ask and if you get the answer please share here.
Regarding your question about virtual landing for your parents... If I were you I would have never done that because the immigration system is extremely slow and dumb and just sending this request to them and confusing them could cost you another 6 months or a year.Thank you

If you search this thread you'll find some posts about reliable travel agencies in Tehran which people have used to send their passports to Ankara for visa. I have not heard of any issues with that and is not that expensive. I've done it before for super visa.
Before the pandemic, when VACs accepted passports in person, there were travel agencies that picked up visas from VAC in Turkey (we used it for picking up visitor visas). I am just not sure how things work with the courier option only. I think the timelines must be very long (first the travel agency takes the passport, travels to Turkey, mails it to VAC. Once visas are issued, VAC mails it back to the agency address in Turkey and the agency brings it back to Iran).
I thought things could be simpler within Canada. I will call and see what they say about this situation.
Thanks for the reply. I have already submit the webform, now i will try to find it through my cic account.
Thanks for your reply. You’re right things can get more complicated with this change. I will call IRCC and see what would be the best approach.
Do you know anyone who had picked up visas from Ankara via a travel agency after the pandemic? I checked the thread; it looks like all the examples are prior to the pandemic, when it was possible to submit passports in person. I would be grateful to get some info about the process and the timeline.
I would complete another medical. I think things can get complicated if you ask for more info and challenge their decision.
Things usually move fast after the 2nd medical. We received passport request around 40 days after the completion of the medical exam. Yours could be even faster as your parents are currently in Canada.
