Hi @luckysomething , did you apply for urgent or non urgent prtd for your wife? My husband and I applied for prtd but he got his ppr 2 days after and I'm still waiting. We're travelling soon for a month. Thanks!
PRTD Application Returned - Reason "wrong application"
- Thread starter asaeed100
- Start date
Hi, @she-she. My wife applied non-urgently, as we don't have a legitimate reason for urgent processing outside of a plane ticket and us wanting our family reunited in Canada soon.
My wife's processing time is a bit complicated by the fact she's a couple months short of meeting her RO in terms of strictly being in Canada. We claimed time we spent together abroad per Appendix A in this guide, but having spent more time on this forum, it looks like claiming that time together might not be as simple as we thought with the whole "who-accompanied-whom" clause...
Regardless, it sounds like you're in much better shape than us, so best of luck!
Hey @luckysomething , any update on your wife's PRTD? yours was submitted mid Feb right? just wonder if you heard anything back yet.
we are waiting for ours and it was submitted mid March.
Cheers

Hey, @kirk1978.
Yeah, my wife submitted February 17th. We haven't had any updates since we were finally able to link the application via GCKey a couple weeks ago. I assume this means we had a VAC agent do a completeness check and it's now with a visa officer, probably taking longer than usual because my wife's RO verification is cutting it really close and involves another party (me).
Hopefully, you'll have a faster turnaround!
I don't know if I've done it correctly. But my screen shows there's no application =/ not a good sign... did you receive any confirmation email after you/your wife submitted the application? I am trying to get the GCKey with my personal access code, which I will have to wait 5 days for the government to mail it to me.Hey, kimmagg. Have you tried linking your application via the IRCC portal using a GCKey account? https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/account.html
My wife was able to do so about a week ago using her UCI and family name, although you can link it through other identifiers too. There's no option for PRTD applications specifically, but you can link it under a "Permanent Resident Card" application type.
For my wife, there's not much extra information, but we now know that the application is under eligibility review. We also found out her file number (which is handy for web forms or GCMS notes requests):
I am kinda on the same boat,
we finally able to link GCkey with the applicaiton this week. and it shows it is under review just like your screen capture. it seems like it is taking longer than usual... i mean if your application is 2 months old and still no update.. mine is at least a month behind.
hopefully we all get some reply soon..
Were you able to finally get your PRTD? I'm facing the same issue now. The frustrating part is that they don't give a clue as to what exactly you need to change.
We did applied once back in Dec too, but that one stuck as "submitted" forever, unable to view, and UNABLE TO LINK TO GCKEY.
i suspect that one might have been bugged and gone.
so we resubmitted in March as mentioned in my previous post...
So were you able to get any progress after?
Hi all,
I have just submitted PRTD for parents on 8th april, and I am unable to view application, however i got an email from tehm asking for a document, that I emalied them back with attachment. I am worried that I am not able to open or edit my application so I can add this document that is requested...please share your insight. thanks,

As a follow-up to my previous post, for anyone interested:
We haven't received any updates, but my wife got her GCMS notes last Friday (shockingly quick!), which she ordered shortly after being able to link her application on GCKey.
There isn't too much exciting in there, but we learned that a visa officer from the PRC Sydney office reviewed her file a few days after submission, which is the same day she received the "wrong application" return reason.
The only note this officer left was that the file would be transferred to the missions office, as my wife claimed some time that we accompanied each other abroad to meet her RO. Her eligibility assessment is still "Not Started", but her PRD assessment was assigned an RC code, probably the visa office, on March 15th. Since then, there hasn't been any movement on her file, and it's not assigned to a specific officer. It seems to be waiting in a queue?
No luck. I think I will have to reapply. This is what it shows on mine. There's no application found.

Hello everyone,
having a similar issue as " wrong application " with grayed-out click/button. I was initially relieved to see it was a glitch and most got their applications processed. However, I applied on April 22 and I still haven't seen any change in status. I believe the strike in Canada had a part to play.
Can anyone let me know what options I have to try and speed up my PRTD urgent application?
Thank You
