Congrats everyone. For those posting updates for passport requests etc, please do share your timelines so we have a clearer picture on where we should be, if there is any concern for those still waiting and any advice/guidance forward would be very helpful. thank you! :)
It is probably best to add your timelines to your signature as it doesn't seem as if the spreadsheet is getting updated. See my signature for reference.

1. Becomes PR when they land in canada and get the stamped copr.
2. Check medical letter date and the expiry of the medical is the date that will be on "immigrant visa".
so if the medical is expiring in dec and you get PPR now then that is the time you will have to finish the landing and complete the process.

Thanks so much for your reply and timely Guidance. !!
we have received AoR , biomatric and eligibility letter till now ,pcc was submitted upfront.
Medical letter still awaited. As per your reply, i understand that if we receive medical in nov 23 and do it in December 23 , we would get landing time up to December 2024 , is this my interpretation correct?
And in this way , my mother can be in job up to November or December 2024 atleast.

Yes, you got it right.
If you have not received the medical request yet then whenever you will complete the medical, it will be 1 year after that.

We received medical today and pcc was done in November 2022 and it was done upfront and was attached with original application submitted in December 2022.
I have read somewhere that our deadline to land in Canada will be up to one year from medical date or pcc expiry date whichever is earlier (either one year from medical date or pcc expiry date which ever is earlier). As we know expiry date of medical is one year and what about expiry date of pcc ?
Can you throw some light on
such like situations
Thanks

The expiry date on visa is linked with medical date.
Means the visa will expire 1 year after the medical is given.
For example you gave medical on 20th Dec 2022 so medical is valid till 20th Dec 2023. Now if you get PPR then you will have to land before 20th Dec 2023.
Thank you so much for the info Faaarii!

Hi all,

We have got a letter in the IRCC account for my mother's PR application, this is a snippet from that letter:

After a preliminary review of your application, the following has been deemed required:
Please provide the current residential address for yourself and your dependant family member (if applicable). You
must report any changes to your address, telephone number(s) and email address immediately throughout the
processing of your application.
<UCI> - <Mother name>:
> Police Certificate: You are required to provide a copy of your original police certificate from India.
Please follow these instructions to ensure you provide the correct police certificate:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/medical-police/policecertificates/how.html
This must be received at this office by: 2023/11/29


I just want to know that is this the standard format for the PCC request only or do I need to inform something about the current address as well? I see an option to upload the PCC in GC Key account login, can I simply upload the PCC once I get it or I need to tell something about address as well?

Also, I am likely not going to receive the PCC by 29th Nov, so I am planning to first simply ask for extension by submitting a Webform request, is there any other way.

If the COPR is expired, then he need to re-apply. Wait for the PGP invitaion to open again in the coming years and hopefully win the lottery to sponsor.

Anyone here with military service record?

Im applying for my fathers PR. He has military service record from back in the 90s. I am filling the form IMM 5546e - Details of military service. I have 2 questions:

1) Do we need to fill name of commanding officer as well as Corps commander and regiment commander?
2) Will they request extra documentation for military service? Usually military records are confidential. I doubt my father can get a detailed history letter from the military

Hi there,

I finally received the sponsor approval letter today! They're asking for various documents like PCC, Medical, and more, but it seems we might need separate letters for each before submitting them. Do you know if that's the case?

On another note, I'm still encountering issues logging into Ecas. I linked my account to Gckey months ago, and my application is only accessible through Gckey. Any advice on troubleshooting the Ecas login?

Your insights would be a huge help!

Anyone's application pending at this state for a long time? "Final decision - <DATE> :Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made" ? our application is pending since Nov 16th.

Also can PGP applications register for the tracker portal? https://ircc-tracker-suivi.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/register I get an error when trying to register.

Any update is appreciated. Thanks
