Received a call from CIC but couldn’t connect. Happened with anybody else ?
In my gc key account i have a message to submit pcc and marriage certificate. And the last date is 29th march.
Why are they calling me then.

Hello, How did you come to know that Final Decision was issued on Jan 11th ?

Hi Noor, I will be in similar situation on couple of months, what's the process to extend parents stay on visitor visa?

I applied for the second time for Visitor Record (visitor visa extension)

 

[movais]

Do you guys know after getting passport stamped how long the visa is valid for/when they need to do landing?

 

[ndhindsa]

Good day all,
I have a question about my dad’s medical request. Application submitted 01 Oct 2021. In the mean time, my dad had to go for medical for super visa last year which is still valid till jun 24,2024. I had received only my mom’s medical request last month which made sense because dad’s is still valid(shows passed on GCNS notes and confirmed by agent on the phone too when i asked for update many months ago ).
But yesterday i have received request for my dad’s medical.
Should i upload the previous one which is still valid or we should get a new one done?
I appreciate any comments or suggestions, thank you!

Only two months valid left for your dad's medical. I will redo the medical exam.
