Hi, Thanks for replying so fast. I want to know - after your withdrawal, did your status online eCAS changed to 'COMPLETE' or not yet. Further what is the current status of your new application for PR renewal, did they start processing? How do you know now, that your current eCAS status is for your new application and not for your old application. Appreciate your response. Thanks in advance. Regarding your questions, as far as I know, so long as the applicant is not on welfare, your sponsorship application should not affect. Further, it is only at the time of application that you need to meet the requirements, not at the time of CIC approval and I suppose it is true for everything, for PR renewal, for sponsorship, for family visa etc, only you need to meet the requirements at the time of application. Hope that answers. Awaiting your response for my queries. Regards.
