Shall I withdraw visitor visa application after PR approval

[india_user25]

Hello,

I applied for visitor visa application for my dad in July 2020 and it is still in progress.

While his visitor visa application was in progress, I applied for his super visa application in 2022 which got appproved and he is in Canada now. His permanent residency application was also in progress from 2019 and got appproved this year.

Till date, the visitor visa application is still shown as submitted. My understanding was that when the PR got approved, visitor visa gets cancelled.

So, I am wondering if I have to explicitly tell IRCC to cancel the processing of visitor visa application?

If it is still showing that it is being processed in the system I would confirm that it should be withdrawn. TRVs are cancelled when you become a PR but not applications for TRVs.
