Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

[2016PGP]

In Generic Application (IMM0008ENU), the mailing address is mine(Canada) and the residential address is my parents'(Korea). I put my dad's cell for a phone number and put mine for an alternative number and email address. Doesn't this mean that they will correspond through my home and email address? I just regret that I didn't put my phone number as the main number, but they may not contact by phone anyway... I also submitted a representative form with my address. I don't know why I have to change my parents' residential address to mine(Canada) when there's a note on the CRA website as below.

Note: if you have an immigration application in process and a representative on file (paid or unpaid), the mailing address in your file will stay your representative’s address.

When I check the ECAS with my dad's birthday, the current home address is Korea, and below that, it says "to change this mailing address, contact us". I put my Canada address as our mailing address. What does this mean? Does this mean that the CIC doesn't care what I wrote and I need to change it again?

I received SA on June 3, 2016 by email and the file was transferred to Ottawa. But since then, no other email came. I didn't even think that they might send request letters to my parents' home in Korea. I put my dad's email only in the additional family information form. Is there possibility that they may contact him by his email?

Based on the spread sheet, none of the Ottawa ones received IME/PCC request yet...so should I just wait and see?..

Any advice??

Hi S.H.K, I'm my mom's rep, and so far, AOR, SA were all sent to me. The note you posted here from CIC website is the same on the AOR letter and I read and posted it here before . The reason I changed my Mom's home address and mailing address to Canada, is also based on CIC's requirement; (You should notify CIC if you moved ( or something like that... as my Mom is in Canada with me on 10 years SV, valid for 2 years per entry ), I assume if she returned to her home country I should change the address accordingly, but it all depends on how long she is going to be and come back ...

Changing address online is easy and fast, my case took 5 business days to show up the updated address on her E- Case.

Her E-case Status has changed to " PR in process ", but haven't received an email from LVO regarding IME and so on yet, noticed on 2016 SS, it shows a few days difference in between " PR In Process " and " required IME ... ". Hope my observation is correct and will have another email from LVO soon to do the IME and so on.

I called CIC this morning. I was approved as sponsor on June 16 and the file was transferred to the Pretoria LVO. I haven't received anything from CIC but the agent said I should receive the approval letter in the mail by July 16 otherwise I should call back then.

Hi everyone,

Just received in email to submit print of option C for 2012/13/14 at the following address


CPC Mississauga / CTD Mississauga
PO BOX 6100, Station A / CP 6100, Station A
Mississauga, ON L5A 4H4
For fastest service, you may send the requested information/document(s) via the Case
Specific Enquiry form at the following link:
https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx

Do i need to send the originals of Option C which i got from CRA already or i can send it in the scan form as well as they mentioned via web enquiry form ??


Secondly it also says


This refers to the Application to Sponsor a Member of the Family Class you submitted to this office on
behalf of ( my father name )and family (if applicable). We are not able to process your
application as it is incomplete. You are missing the following.

My mom is on the application as well so this is automatically understood as a family of my father ???


Thanks

Under sponsorship it says application received, under PR application it says in process. That's why I ended up calling because I haven't received any emails/letters from CIC and neither has my mum.

Hi Simp,

I too received an email from CIC requesting ORIGINAL Option C's earlier this month. Thought I'd share what I did and the thought process behind it...

Figured the time it would take to scan to the right size (the max allowed upload size of all files is 3.5MB and each file can be a max of 2MB) and then upload the documents vs. sending it by Canada Post (other couriers do not deliver to PO Boxes, as they don't have access to drop things off in them), it was easier for me to just send them by Canada Post's Express post that takes 2 biz days for delivery. I mailed out my documents last week and received the Sponsorship Approval this morning. Hope this helps. All the best!

Called in CIC again today to ask the status of my application, since last week a call center officer didn't want to check it. This time the officer asked all my credentials and checked it. No problems at all. Good news. We were approved as a sponsors and soon will receive a letter.
FedEx Jan 4, 2016 @ 9:19 am.

Good luck

Called CIC too. Was approved for sponsorship last week, but never got their email - agent said they have been having issues with their new bulk email system.

File transferred to London.

Good luck to all!
