You must remain in Canada until at least she lands. No you can’t just visit. You are the one sponsoring her so you need to be living in Canada to still qualify for the sponsorship. Once she lands you can technically move although not the point of the program although you will remain financially responsible for her.

How come?
I am telling from my experience and I can validate it.
But I really need to hear your side of the story....so please share
I hear you completely.
When you did the change of address, did you get any confirmation for change?
Yes or No? ( I am not talking about the web forms inquiry).
Once they landed. I updated the contact & physical address via webform. It showed in my dad’s ecas as address updated… but now that section is blank… ecas status does say “decision made” now.
Realistically, You are wrong. Have you heard what the Minister just announced? Why do you think they have decided to do what the minister announced? It is because of all the feedbacks and Complaints they received from the Public. Also, as long as Canada is accepting large number of Refugees ( Don't get me wrong, I think it is fantastic that Canada does such a thing), Bringing 30,000 through PGP program a year won't affect our economy or health care system in a negative way at all. You really need to stop commenting here in this Forum and give people wrong information and always be negative and be BLUNT as you claim. Stop this BS and keep your opinion to yourself.

my parents came to India in October 2021.
We informed CIC that they are in Canada.
Got Re Medical Request on 21st November 2021.
Did Medical in few days.
Got PPR on 3rd December 2021.
We informed on same day that they are in Canada and no response from CIC New Delhi
My father decided to leave Canada and my mother is still in Canada. Now she is also leaving.
So once she will be in India, we will send passport for stamping and hopefully they will do landing again before November 2022.
Financially stressful to do multiple flights in same year with Canadian winter.
I know ArriveCAN procedure.
Good to hear that PR card would be applied at the Airport and for SIN I will take appointment at Service Canada.
If someone has applied OHIP recently for their parents any insight would be helpful.
@dapin84 This is Wrong information. Please consult CIC directly or ask an immigration Lawyer. You can get 30 minutes free consultation from a lawyer @ https://www.probonoontario.org/hotline/.
How many candidates here who have not received pre arrival services letter. Thanks for your input.
Refugee on average are young with children. The large majority end up being taxpayer and many have minimal longterm health issues. You can’t compare the refugee population with the PGP population. 30k applications is 40-45k seniors which actually is large number of seniors to an overwhelmed healthcare system and an ageing population. There are also millions in Canada without GPs. Almost all other countries don’t allow parent sponsorship with access to healthcare because if the burden it places in the healthcare system and minimal economic benefit. If that wasn’t the case there would be unlimited PGP applications and all the other countries would allow parent sponsorship. Canada is currently focused on filling specific labour shortages with immigration and in general wanting to attract young people and young families to balance out Canada’s ageing population. No amount of protests are going to result in faster processing of PGP applicants or more resources being transferred to deal with PGP applications. The PGP program is purely political. If you asked the provinces,hospitals, physicians, LTC, etc. off the record whether they can accommodate any more seniors they would say no but many are afraid to speak openly about the program because of the political implications. The PGP applications were opened right before the federal election. That wasn’t a coincidence.
There must be a detail in PPR letter about how to send passports to the visa office. For India, the following thread may be useful:

This isn’t wrong. To sponsor a parent you must be living in Canada. Why would we allow people to sponsor a parent when they don’t live in Canada? You must be able to show that Canada is your permanent home and that you are still meeting LICO based on your NOA until a parent has landed. If IRCC discovers the child no longer lives in Canada the COPR can be cancelled or PGP application refused. You can check with a lawyer familiar with the PGP program. Would pay for an immigration lawyer.
