My parents application was updated in December 2021. Decision made and was approved. London Visa Office. Since then there has been no update at all. Anyone else in the same boat. I am thinking of calling IRCC but thought I’d check here to see if this is normal.
London Visa Office is the slowest visa processing office. My sponsorship application was also approved in December and parents' PR file moved to Londo n. Since then, no update, no medical or police certificate request so far.

the medicals were updated in Ecas saying it was received just within a week they completed. I also contacted CIC and they mentioned that medical is passed waiting for Security and background check to be completed. tik tok :(

Hi there
Is impossible to reach CIC! frustrating. I have been calling for days, i already sent a webform with my question. I just want to make sure that they received my parents CSQ and that it is on file. It has been a month, and no news, nothing changes on my parents account. Is there a possibility that they do not have it? and i'm loosing time? Anyone has an idea how long they would take to stat processing once with CSQ ready?

Hey people! Anyone’s parents here already receive their PR cards? How long does it take to obtain eCOPR and PR cards after submitting details (address, photos) on the PR Portal? Any rough estimate? Thanks!

REQUEST TO ALL MEMBERS: When you post a question here ,please do acknowledge the responses you receive. Many people spend lots of time and effort to answer your queries, just selflessly with the only motive to help you.
Some members just dump questions here and I am not sure even if they even care to read the responses in absence of any acknowledgement.
Thanks

We have now booked 2way airway services but there is one confusion - As per IRCC letter - there should be one packet with all the passport/photos etc however the instructions we got from VFS is make 2 separate package (one for each applicant - Mom & Dad)..Can you help here as you have already done this.
One more question what is Visa Transmission letter- Is that the letter we got from IRCC?
There will be seperate envelop for each applicant. I know IRCC instructions are far from clear..they are confusing. Each envelop with have its own passport, copy of PPR and other documents as we required.

firstly Its not for me, but for everyone who replies to queries of others. It can be anything. just one word reply "ok" will also do. or even a "like". Its a basic courtesy I believe.

Hi @sudeeppanshikar,
Yes we informed the IRCC (via Webform) and the local VISA office in Sri Lanka (via Email) about her arrival in Canada as a visitor. The address in her client login (ECAS) was updated to the Canadian address.
We submitted all requested documents on 18 Jan 2022 and still waiting to hear from them about the next steps.
Great , just want to know .Because my parents are in India , the have visitor visa and we are waiting for passport submission request for PR.

Hi All, App submitted on feb 26, 2021. I think I got PPR for my parents ( mother & father) today, it says information letter as title but it seems like Passport request as they are asking to submit passports in 30 days along with few other things. I have few questions regarding that letter if you can help me answer those please.

1) Do they need to call VFS and have those passports picked? and where to send those passports? they are in Ahmedabad, India

2) it says submit everyones documents together in one package, should we do that or submit them separately ? ( passport, PPR letter, photographs of each in separate package?)

3) It is requesting to submit height and eye colour for each applicant, how do you do that? just includes that one piece of paper and send it with passport?

4) do we need to include receipt of the Right of Permanent Residence Fee( RPPF)? I paid that in advance. Letter states" We strongly encourage you to pay your fees online and provide a copy of the receipt.

5) I only received one letter, naming my father in it, he is Principal Applicant, Just want to make sure this letter also applies for my mother, who is dependant on the application, I am asking this as her name is not anywhere on the letter

I will really appreciate if someone can answer these questions for me, thank you!!

1) Do they need to call VFS and have those passports picked? and where to send those passports? they are in Ahmedabad, India

- Book two way courier via VFS. Your passports will be picked up by bluedart courier on behalf of VFS. The same courier will deliver it after visa stamping.

2) it says submit everyones documents together in one package, should we do that or submit them separately ? ( passport, PPR letter, photographs of each in separate package?)

- Yes thats the confusing part. But you need to have 2 envelops ( one each for mother and father). Each of them will have its corresponding passport and documents.

3) It is requesting to submit height and eye colour for each applicant, how do you do that? just includes that one piece of paper and send it with passport?

- yes create 2 such documents ( one each for you mom and dad and keep in the corresponding envelop along with passport). The document should have name , Application number ( same for both applicant), UCI number ( unique for each applicant) and other height and eye color details.

4) do we need to include receipt of the Right of Permanent Residence Fee( RPPF)? I paid that in advance. Letter states" We strongly encourage you to pay your fees online and provide a copy of the receipt.

- I had paid in advance too but I still kept a copy in both the envelops. No harm in doing that.

5) I only received one letter, naming my father in it, he is Principal Applicant, Just want to make sure this letter also applies for my mother, who is dependant on the application, I am asking this as her name is not anywhere on the letter

- Yes the letter is in the name of primary applicant only. Still take 2 printout of the letter and keep them in each envelop. ( mom and dad's envelop)

I will really appreciate if someone can answer these questions for me, thank you!!
