Hello Friends,
Happy to inform you that finally I got PPR. However, I haven't received my wife's visa approval yet.

Next, I need to go for visa stamping once passport submission services resume in INDIA which is currently suspended due to lockdown.

Documents submitted: Employment letter, Payslips, Tax Return, Marriage Certificate, Work permit, Rent Receipts.

Timelines:
  1. Application Submission (inside Canada): 16 Jan 2021
  2. Traveled to INDIA: 27 Mar 2021
  3. Informed IRCC to prioritize via Webform, Email & new process (sent multiple requests)
  4. PPR: 28 Apr 2021
Also used the new process to expedite https://secure.cic.gc.ca/ClientContact/en/Crisis

Along with PPR, I also got a Travel Exemption letter (which will help at the Airport while boarding). The letter states that "Please be advised that temporary foreign workers are exempt from travel restrictions and do not require written authorization from the Government of Canada to travel to Canada by air or land if they’re coming for an essential (non-discretionary) purpose. Each province may have additional restrictions, please check the(ir) website before travelling".

I am very grateful to each one of you who helped me to prioritize my application. Hope you hear good news soon. Good luck.

My timeline:
Applied inside Canada - Feb 8th
Travelled to India without ppr
Sent email on April 9th and new webform on April 16th to prioritize application
Ppr request - April 29th

I would highly recommend everyone to submit the new travel exemption webform with proof that you are exempt from travel if you’re not in Canada and need your application prioritized.

Thank you!

I just explained that I need to return to work and attached a copy of a job letter and proof of address. You can also attach paystubs and rent slips if you have any.
