Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[hannan_1949]

My parents landed in Montreal on Feb.20th, 2022. Once the plane landed they will go inside the terminal, where person will ask if they have ArriveCanada app, and then to the kiosk inside the terminal and answer questions, how many travelers, scan their passport and declare cash and goods. Once they done, kiosk will take a picture of all the travelers and will print out a form. Once this is done they can proceed to CBSA officer, he will check passports and will attach stickers to the passports back side, after this they can proceed towards the exit, next officer took them to a special room where they will fill out COPR and he will cancel the visas and stamp the date on the COPR, after this they can proceed to a COVID test provider site.

I think your parents PR for cubec.

Congrats! I received 2nd medical request for both my parents today. Is this normal? They already sent their medical report back in Nov 2019 and everything was good. Do they still need to take this 2nd medical examination?

Yes they do. Medical is only valid for a year.

I was surprised, the whole process sending the PPR and documents and receiving back the passports and CoPR was about a week.

Congrats.

Have a question: what is the name of the document that need to have to declare goods and money when you do your first landing?

If your parents have goods that will be coming after their landing they can declare "GOODS TO FOLLOW LIST".

I received pre-arrivals services letter in October last year. Additional docs were requested in November.

No update since. If anyone in the same boat? Not sure how much longer this process will take!

Is it true that parents above 75 years of age don’t get selected in PGP

Nope! That is not true.

I've received letter to submit the parent's passports for stamping. In the letter, the Step 1 is related to Change in Circumstance, I've pasted it below. Please advise if any action is required on Step 1 mentioned below if there is no change in circumstance. Do we still need to inform via webform or email that there is no change in circumstance or just ignore and proceed with Step 2 / 3 and submit the passport to nearest VAC?

STEP 1: Change in Circumstances:
Should any of the following circumstances apply to you or any accompanying family member, you must inform this office immediately:
 Change in marital status, for example due to marriage, divorce, legal separation, annulment or death of spouse;
 Change in family composition, for example due to adoption or birth of a child, including a child born to your accompanying dependent child,
 Death of principal applicant, spouse, accompanying children, or death of sponsoring relative;
 Change in health;
 You or any of your accompanying family members being charged or convicted of a criminal offence
 Change in contact information: mailing address, e-mail address, or telephone number.
Your failure to inform us of any of these changes may result in the cancellation of your permanent resident visa and may render you and your accompanying family members inadmissible to Canada.
Your failure to declare all of your family members, accompanying or not, will permanently exclude them from sponsorship under the Family Class regulations.

Did you get pre-arrival letter and passport submission letter together? I am asking because in the passport letter it's mentioned to confirm if any circumstances have changed and if so, they might have requested for additional info.

 

[RDPR]

Yes they do. Medical is only valid for a year.

Yes it is normal. Just follow along and you will get there. I received the request for passport submission this week. We did medical twice and PCC thrice in last 3 years.

Hey I got the PPR and wondering how/where to submit the passports? My closest VAC is VFS Pune, India..not sure if we need to visit in person or send via courier? Can you share some info on how you did it?

No, we did not get the passport submission letter.

I was asked to submit PCC the first time in May 2021 along with the Medical for my mother. Does this mean that the medical is valid till May 2022, but I have to submit the PCC again as its validity is 6 months? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Only few had to do PCC second time but many had to do re-medical. Do not worry until IRCC asks you to do. Sometimes they extend the validity.
