Principal Applicant (Inland) Dependent (Outland) during COVID-19

[Falaa]

Hi all,
I received the PPR for me yesterday. I am the main applicant, but my spouse and children’s names are not mentioned in the letter. The letter asks me to send my passport or state on the IRCC web form that I am in Canada. I am now in Canada but my family is abroad. I have already replied where I and my family are on the web form. What should I do next? Can my family contact the local Visa Application Centre with the PPR given to me? Thank you very much who can give me suggestions.

I am in the same situation. But, I have not received a portal mail yet. When I checked with IRCC customer service, they informed me that dependents can send passport to VFS, but they will not get it back unless primary applicant receives COPR. I guess we will have to wait until we receive portal credentials and COPR approval mail.

Thanks a lot, Raman Mangat1 and VJ9899. I guess I have to wait for a while as it's Christmas holiday season.

Hi all, My spouse's passport reached to VFS on 22nd, then went to IRCC yesterday. And today it is showing that decision envelope has been sent back. Does it mean there was something wrong with the documents and they are sending it back without visa? Thanks

It means , the final decision is made (mostly passport is stamp) and they have sent it back to the VFS from where you applied. You should get the passport back in next 4-5 business days.. I got the same msg today , hoping for the best

Did you get any letter or message in your online account ? for example counterfoil generated etc. ?

There is nothing in GC account. Should this show up in primary applicant's GC?

Hi Guys,


Need a help and advice on how to reply to confirmation portal email from IRCC.

Sorry for the long post but I am confident that expert reply to this post might help many CEC candidates with outland dependent.

I am a CEC inland applicant with 3 outland dependents.

ITA :21 Jan 2021

AOR : 15 Mar 201

Medical and Bio metric completion: 30 Mar 2021

No updates after that and called IRCC so many times but got info that no updates in profile after April 2021.

I saw a ghost update on my profile last week and was not able to connect to IRCC to know what the update was.

But yesterday , I received Confirmation Portal email from IRCC.

So some good news coming for CEC candidates waiting so long for any update .


My question:

I have given separate email address for me and my spouse.

As primary applicant, I have received my Confirmation Portal email from IRCC and my question is what is the best way to respond to IRCC ?

The portal email has the below things to cover.

Important notes:

 You and every dependent included in your application need to be in Canada to use the portal. If you or one of your dependents currently live outside Canada, let us know by replying to this message: IRCC.ClientPortal-PortailClient.IRCC@cic.gc.ca.

 A principal applicant can have more than one profile under their account in this portal. As the principle applicant, you’ll act on behalf of your minor dependents. Profiles for your dependents, who were under 18 years of age at the time you applied for permanent residence, will be created under your profile.

 Other dependent(s) included in your application, including a spouse/partner and dependents 18 years old or older at the time you applied for permanent residence, can either:

o Allow IRCC to create their account under your principal applicant account. You will then act on behalf of them.

or Give their own unique email address (e.g. gmail, hotmail, etc.) for IRCC to create a new account and complete the steps on their own.



Questions:

1. Do I need to reply to IRCC mail with details of mine as well as for my dependents at any case?

2. The dependent kids email address has to primary applicant email address as per above notes?

3. Can I set same email address for me and all dependents or separate email address for my spouse?

Note:

In PR application, Have put different email id for me and my spouse.

4. Where do we need to mention specifically that dependents are outside canada and we are in Canada?

5. There is also a section which mentions the below

You and every dependent included in your application need to be in Canada to use the portal. If you or one of your dependents currently live outside Canada, let us know by replying to this message: IRCC.ClientPortal-PortailClient.IRCC@cic.gc.ca.

So do we need to reply to the email stating that dependents are outside Canada along with details of all members or not?

Hello , I have same case. Can you please confirm what step you took ?

 

[Raman Mangat1]

It means , the final decision is made (mostly passport is stamp) and they have sent it back to the VFS from where you applied. You should get the passport back in next 4-5 business days.. I got the same msg today , hoping for the best
