If she already has done biometrics that will help speed up the processing but there are no guarantees that she will get to travel before your birth. Would add that your MIL can’t quarantine with you because you are pregnant or if you have an infant because you are more vulnerable to serious outcomes of covid. You would need a basement with a bathroom where she can remain for the last 11 days of quarantine or a separate location.
Hi there, I got PHAC approval for my in-laws but their visitor visa application is still under process as they were not able to complete their biometrics in India. Could you please guide me what to do next. Is PHAC approval enough to enter Canada once the flights are resumed?
No they need the approved TRV which means they will need to complete their biometrics before approval.
I think you will need eTA ahead. This can be done by raising a web form. You will need to attach the PHAC report and in the text need to add covid-19 to flag it.
If you look at the case no TRV because biometrics are needed. ETA from India will only awarded in very rare situations like critical injury.
Thank you for your reply. Am I supposed to send this letter using webform to flag the application?
The PHAC does not fast track your approval process since you are already being prioritized and you need the biometrics. Without their biometrics the application can't move forward. Supporting a pregnant child during a normal pregnancy (no critical illness in mom or baby) is not really a PHAC situation. IRCC came to this weird in between where they give people the PHAC approval but essentially then treat it like every other TRV application.
Parents also need to remain in either a separate basement or hotel/airbnb. They need to do it in general to meet the quarantine rules but especially because pregnant women and infants are more vulnerable to covid and also have contact with the health system. There is sometimes some flexibility if someone is near death or there is a funeral.
Hi All, I am trying to apply Visa for my mother in Law. I verified online for her bio metrics status and it was mentioned that her bio metrics are still valid for another 10 years(this is her visa renewal as her passport expired).
I am trying to apply the PHAC form.
In the Letter of Required Support (PDF) and Site Visit Authorization Form (PDF) what should I mention in the field - Name of facility, location or service for site visit? Is it my home address ?
Can someone please advise .
