Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

[kkim604]

Well. I believe CIC is dong its best to increase the CAP, but it seems, 5000 is not decided by CIC, but by Canadian government. CIC is doing its best to keep 5001-10000, once CIC received the formal notice to increase the CAP, they will started charging the 5001-10000. In another word, if you have not received any returning application within a month, most likely, you are in the 10000 CAP and will be process very quick thereafter. For me, the only difference is the first 5000 were charged and issued AOR, but the other 5000 are also in the system, if CIC thinks you have a complete application. I strongly believe, the LP will keep their promise, as they did for the refugee.

Have they sent back application 1001 and higher?

Cic has kept 10000 complete applications in which 5000 has already been charged and rest 5000 complete applications have been kept with them and will return incomplete ones and they will also return the complete ones those are beyond 10000 cap. They might be in process of sending these back soon or might have already started sending these back.

Hello Sponsors

I am sure that I saw somewhere the at the sponsor must be a resident in Canada at the time of submitting the sponsorship application. Does anybody know what happens if the sponsor moves away after submitting the application? What happens if I go to work in the States for a year or two while my application for sponsoring my parent (for immigration to Canada) is in progress?

Thank you!

Thanks for showing hope. I know we all are on the other side of the table and can just wait and watch on whats going on. And such posts encourages the positivist and hope .. Thanks, Cheers!!!

Isn't it odd that no one who sent their package through Canada Post (as reported in the spreadsheet) had their CC charged? What gives?

I sent my package by Canada Post using their fastest service. I am in Alberta. According to their website, it was delivered on the 5th at 10:32am. I am 100% positive that my application is complete. Second year applying (last year it got there too late), single sponsor sponsoring one parent, meet all the requirements - very straightforward application.

Anyone else used Canada Post and had their application delivered on the 5th?

Good morning to all. I am one of the unlucky applicants that was not able to reached the 5000CAP. Purolator delivered my application 5th January around 8:52AM (hoping this is right).

We encounter problems on our Credit Card and the bank changed our card. So our card the we have used was now invalid. Hoping that we still have chance to make it to the 10,000CAP we contacted CIC and informed them that we change our card and we want to inform them about that. The agent checked our application and asked us to submit again a new payment form. the agent said also the WE HAVE TO DO THIS CHANGE IN PAYMENT FORM ASAP. Judging from what the agent said, I think we still have a chance and they will again start charging the remaining 5000 applicants to complete the 10,000CAP this.

I can recommend for applicants 2017 to send 2 forms with 2 CC + letter. I wrote " in case of fraud of my current CC please use my second one"

We cannot do anything and Purolator can only refund your money but nothing else and no one will listen. Next time make sure to send your documents to someone in Toronto and then they can deliver to local courier for delivery. We paid so much tax so that we can be in cap but bcoz of one stupid mistake of someone's we will have to wait again for the next year.

 

[thecoolguysam]

I am still waiting for a callback from Purolator to give me an explanation that when I chatted with the purolator agent around between 1 pm and 2 pm EST, the agent told me that the driver is in the lineup for delivery and i got a delivery notification around 2:10 pm EST then why the timestamp of delivery is 9:43 am?
