Hi All,
I applied on Oct 27. No update yet, no ghost email or anything.
I am trying to link account with GCKey but no success yet. To link an account I am using PA's (my dad) name, dob and passport details. I am little confused how many people I have to select? Currently me and my wife are in Canada, we dont have kids. I am applying alone as my wife is not a co-signer on app. I am sponsoring both my dad and mom. Should I use 2 or 3 or 4 as family member list? Please advise. Thanks in advance.

I do not know if anyone is successful in linking their account without ghost email or additional doc request. I tried most combinations. In-fact, my mother changed her passport since I submitted the nomination and I moved to a different province. So my combination includes old/new passport, old/new province, 2,3,4 for the total family members, etc., yet no luck!

I am in the same boat. Tried numerous times but does not work. Application date is October 1st. No ghost email/update/additional document request since.

If you didn't get a ghost email, I don't think you'll be able to connect to gckey. Just need to give it time.

Also, people who applied in November will have to wait much longer (from my friends experience in the past). I suspect IRCC will have a limited amount of staff set aside for PGP applications, so processing will take some time.

Think of it this way, they accepted an entire year's quota of applications in 2 months time. So the processing of applications will be spread out over the year.
