Parents & Grandparents Program (PGP) 2023

[riddymon]

your PR portal will not updated once you submitted the file. You have to link your application to GCKEY account. you need to create GCKEY account to view updates and messages regarding your PGP. one problem everyone faces while linking is how many family number to add. so if you have sponsored your parents and you are the only one that sponsor them then total will be 3. if your wife is co signer it will be 4. do not add any children.

Thanks, I've tried 3 and 4...didn't work unfortunately and I know the rest of the information is correct. How long before your actually able to link the application?

Did you submit your PCC through the email provided or through your GCKEY account? I provided PCC through email and GCKEY account on July 18th and haven't gotten a reply since.

After submission of the PCC did you get an email acknowledgement or after uploading did any status change on GC key account?

I did not receive an email but my GCKEY got updated a few days after to “the document submitted has been uploaded.”

I am wondering if anyone is in the same situation. I submitted PGP 2023 form for my mom (single) on Dec 18, 2023 and received request for extensive additional documents on April 4th 2024 from CPC Mississuaga (proof of relationship and bunch of other documents such as passport which were all submitted in the original application) and then I submitted it all back on April 5th 2024, but after that I have received no communication at all. No AOR, No Biometric or Medical request. Nothing. Just radio silence. Phone call with IRCC was not helpful either as they said its well within 24 months, so nothing much they can do. For information, I live in Vancouver and her application indicated Vancouver as intended city but I have not get any information about change in processing center to Vancouver from MIssissauga, so I cant say if its transferred.

I believe you submitted your application this year. If this is the case, I doubt if you will be able link the application now because IRCC haven’t started processing it yet.
Generally, you should be able to link the application once you receive AOR which comes with an Application number. Good luck!

I believe you will be receiving updates in couple of days with the way things are moving now.
Have you tried linking your application to GCKey account?

it took me while to link. if you are 2024 applicant, i guess it will take time. keep trying once every week to see. also if you cannot link no need to worry all communication will be in email.

Hey guys
We renewed my moms passport. She is in India. Her application is at decision made July 19,2024 but there has been no further information. No portal emails orPPR. Should we update her passport through webform?

I was in the same situation until a few weeks ago. No communication at all from IRCC from Oct 2023 to July 2024. But then last few weeks everything has been moving rapidly. It's just dumb luck honestly, whose application gets picked up for review and whose doesn't. If you haven't already, please reach out to your local MP and they will send a request to IRCC to get a status update. Not sure it does anything to speed things up, but IRCC is obliged to respond to the MP's office within 10 days or so.

Absolutely, you need to submit the new passport via webform. Well done! You’re almost at the finish line. Good luck!

 

[ali.tariq]

Interesting, same here. Did you receive an AOR letter so far?

Yes, AOR was received a while ago. Medicals were passed on July 17. Nothing since. You?

Hey Solar, did you get any update or your process is done?

 

[ali.tariq]

Yes you can start the process coz the PCC is valid for 6 months and IRCC gives you 30 days to provide it, you can ask for an extension if it is taking longer.

the PCC will be ready tomorrow. How do I go about providing it to IRCC before they ask for it? Should I provide it before they ask for it OR should I wait for them to ask?
