Could anyone who faced this situation please advise.

My parents received their Biometric request letter and the next day also received Medical request letter. Appointments for both are booked.
A day after the Medical request. There was a Request Message/ Request Letter which asked to submit biometrics, medical, and resubmit Scehdule A (IMM5669) for both primary applicant (my dad) and dependant (my mum).
We had already submitted Schedule A and made sure there were no gaps and that it matched the Resume. We filled it for the past 10 years so starting 2014. The letter mentions in all upper case 'FROM THE AGE OF 18'.
Do most applicants get this request for Schedule A?

IRCC can request update of Schedule A to include additional information including history starting from age of 18.
If that's in the ADL, then you need to update Schedule A with the extra information. Try your best and if there are some history that you can't recall, include a letter of explanation.

They don't require that for ALL applications but they do that for some.

Is there anyone here that submitted PCC(police clearance) last Nov? I submitted mine Nov 11 but no update since then. People who submitted their PCC from Nov-Dec already received request for biometrics early January. Anyone in the same boat as me? I contacted them and it’s almost 2 weeks but no reply. So worried now.

oh really. we have already been asked 3 times to provide additional details and documents, which we provided with explainations and affidavits stamped and signed by a notery. We received all of the letters that we were supposed to and completed the biometrics and medical requests that were sent to us. how are we still at the beginning of the process? what else would we need to do other than a final decision?

Hello everyone, I'm in a bit of a unique situation with my parent sponsorship application and would appreciate your help.
We submitted our application in September 2024. My mother is the principal applicant and my dad is added as an accompanying spouse.

We submitted and passed biometrics, medicals, police certificates etc. we have recieved two pre-arrival letters.

We just got an email for my dad to submit his military record and schedule A.
The situation for the military record for my dad is a bit complicated. Long story short, we might not be able to provide the requested document on the military record for my dad in a timely manner as there are issues that we have to resolve administratively that could take months or even years.
I understand that we could communicate this to IRCC and see what they say.

Another option that we are considering is to remove my dad from the application. My mom is very eager and has strong intention to live in Canada with his Canadian kids and grandkids but my dad is not that much interested in residing in Canada anyways as he is busy with his business.
We are worried that my mom's application will be in jeopardy due to this issue.

My question is, can we remove my dad, who is currently the accompanying spouse from my mom's application so that my mom's application can move forward? If so, how can we do this?
