Not sure if i posted the reply i got back from my MP. This email i assume was sent from CHC ND to the MP's office when she inquired my case.
Based on what is said below, ND claims that they create a file number once they have the kit and original files, again nylalisa should be right with the creation of file numbers in delhi and a hard copy is required.
" All applications to sponsor relatives for permanent residence in Canada are initiated by the sponsor, who submits an undertaking of support to the Case Processing Centre (CPC) in Mississauga. Once CPC Mississauga approves the sponsorship, both our office and the sponsor are notified. In sponsored spouse and child cases, the applicant’s application and supporting documents are forwarded by CPC Mississauga to the visa office for priority processing.
Our records show that, in this case, we have received notification from CPC Mississauga that the sponsorship has been approved, but we have not yet received the application kit, including all the necessary forms and supporting documents.
As the application kit should be received shortly, we request the applicants to await contact from our office. Once a file has been created for the application, it will be reviewed and an eligibility decision made. If it is determined that an interview will be required, a letter will be sent to the applicant advising of the date and time for the scheduled interview. If it is determined that the interview can be waived, the applicant will receive a request for submission of original passport and any other documents or information required to finalize the application.
I trust that this information will be of assistance in responding to your constituent. "
