Hello. I have my mum's application in progress, but I'm using a consultant who has been submitting the documents and application for me. I'm not sure how I can check the status of the application. Would the consultant have to create the GCKey? Almost everything has been processed, but I'm not sure what the status of medicals are and I haven't gotten a request for medicals yet. I got PCC and biometric requests in July, however, no request for medicals. My mum is currently in Canada on Supervisa and had medicals done in 2020. I've seen some updates where people mentioned that medicals were not required for PR if the applicant is already in Canada and got their medical done in the past 5 years. Just curious if others have already gotten requests and I would just have to wait.

Hello everyone, i am not sure if someone else went through same process. I had my parents medical requested last month. After a week an email from Delhi immigration regarding additional info required on medical for my dad . Our panel doctor told us next medical will be done after three months. Is it normal? If anyone going through same process or had been through same process can shedd some light on it? I am wondering if our file has to wait three months for further process. TIA

Visa request just arrived:

The processing of your application for permanent residence in Canada is almost complete. You must complete the following steps within 30 days in order for our office to issue your Confirmation of Permanent Residence and, if applicable, your permanent residence visa. If for any reason you are not able to meet this deadline, please inform our Montréal Immigration office immediately via the IRCC Web Form: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp with details concerning your situation.

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.

STEP 2: Passport Requirements – Determine if you need to submit your passport(s)
Note: You are advised not to commit to any travel plans, purchase tickets, or take any irrevocable action such as selling property or resign employment until you have received your immigrant visas.
Note: You must submit your package to the nearest Visa Application Centre along with the VAC Passport Transmission fee. Passports submitted directly to the Mission (in person or via courier) will not be accepted.
Determine whether you need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to travel to Canada at: www.cic.gc.ca/ENGLISH/visit/visas.asp
a. If your passport is from a country whose citizens need a visa to travel to Canada, you will need to submit original passport(s) for you and each accompanying family member. Your passport(s) should be valid for at least 6 months and have at least two blank pages. If a child is included on your passport, you must have one blank page per accompanying child.
Please note that you STILL need to submit your passport(s) even if:
o You or your accompanying family members have a valid Canadian temporary residence visa or permit.
o You or your accompanying family members are permanent residents of the U.S.A and holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need a visa to travel to Canada.
Note: All passports must be intact and not worn, torn or otherwise damaged; the laminate on the bio-data page must be securely attached. Each page must be securely affixed to the passport; there cannot be any loose pages.
b. If your passport is from a country whose citizens need an eTA to travel to Canada or your passport is from the United States, you will need to submit one photocopy of the photo page and any pages containing amendments of the passport for you and each accompanying family member (Note: any accompanying family member whose passport does require a visa however, will need to submit their original passport as per Step 2a). Your passport(s) should be valid for at least 6 months. Please do not send your original passport(s).
*** Please note that Confirmation of Permanent Residence and permanent resident visas cannot be issued on Diplomatic, Official or Military passports or travel documents. You must provide an ordinary passport. ***
STEP 3: Prepare your documents
You must submit together:
1. One copy of this letter.
2. Passport(s) OR photocopy(ies) of passport(s), as explained in Step 2.
3. Two (2) photos of yourself and of each accompanying family member. Photos MUST meet the precise specifications found in the link below or in Appendix A at the end of this letter. If you submit photos that do not meet the exact specifications, your package will be returned to you. www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/pdf/5445EB-e.pdf
3/12
4. The height and eye colour (for both eyes) for the Principal Applicant and all of his accompanying dependants
