Hi All,

We sponsored our parents in 2015 for Immigration under Family Class. When we sponsored our parents we were PR and after that we became citizens. I thought I have updated CIC about my status but I was wrong I forgot to update my status from PR to citizen. Now my parents have got Immigrant Visa and COPR for Canada and they will be landing in next 2 months and the status in their application says 'Decision Made'. Is it advisable to update CIC now about my Citizenship Status after that they got Visa and COPR or should I leave it like. If we update our status are they going to ask any question or they will just update file. If you experts advise to update CIC about my Citizenship status should I just send my passport copy and should I just email them or send them via courier.

Also, I had one more question we are going to move soon so how should I update address shall I just go to address change form on CIC website and update my address or I need to attach proof of my new address.

Hope to hear from anybody soon.

Regards

The fact your status has changed from PR to citizen isn't material to your parents' PR application. There is no need to notify CIC.

no other response is necessary. your parent's application is their application, so YOUR status or address are not relavant. there's no need to contact CIC about either.

You are the sponsor, not the applicant; your address has nothing to do with it. They will be asked for an address when landing.

Thank you for the reply. If the immigration office does not ask for the address from them then the card will be sent to my address (since i'm the sponsor) or they have to ask the address from the applicant. If they dont ask for the address can my parents give them the address for the pr card.

thank you
