parent sponsorship

[sponsormom]

Hi,

I'm new to this forum... has there been any news regarding those that applied under the priority processing measures for Ondoy victims? My mom was a victim and have been contacted by the Manila immigration office but has not heard anything since then. Does anyone have a similar situation?
Here's our timeline:

October 2008 - Applied for sponsorship in Mississauga
November 2008 - AOR received
November 2009 - Sponsorship approved, Received PR application kit
November 2009 - Forwarded application kit to mother in Manila
December 2009 - PR application + other documents sent to CIC Manila
January 4, 2010 - CIC Manila called my mom to ask for details regarding the flood etc..
January 2010 - ECAS status changed to In-Process

To all those sponsoring their parents. After submission of the option C print out  and letter of employment during initial filing to  sponsor parents, before approval of your parents sponsorship application, do the cic ask again for another recent option c printout and letter of employment or not?

Hi Sponsormom,

My Mom got a call to from CIC Manila last May 2, 2010 and since then we haven't heard anything back from CIC. I saw your posting that your got a call from CIC last Jan. 4, 2010. Any updates after that call from CIC? Please gives us any updates or just a heads up what happen next.

Thank you I think we are following the same forum on trackitt.com too.

Cheers,
Jomjom

You have to submit your option C Printout when doing the sponsorship application (Step 1), then you HAVE TO SUBMIT an updated, last 2 years of Option C Printout to Your visa office once your sponsorship is approved.
For my application, they DID NOT ask for updated Option C Printout before approving my sponsorship, regardless, I have to send my last 2 years of CRA Assessment with my father's PR application to Singapore Visa OFfice.
Everyone's case is different, they may ask you for updated Option C before approving your sponsorship.


You should look into all your threads, I've answered this questions 4 times now.

I just sent my application to sponsor my parents and two step brothers. Regarding proof of relations to canada. Do i the sponsor have to submit all these documents.
 as proof of relation. for example do i have to submit these for my two step brothers? as proof of relation. I am sponsoring my dad and his dependents . Are all these documents required.or just some?

 -Photocopy of the Primary school Register of Admission showing the name of the pupil and parents, the name and location of the school, and the year of attendance. (We will not accept Attendance Registers and letters from the school.) This document must bear the original school seal and headmaster's signature.

  -This document is required for each accompanying child.•All school certificates, diplomas and degrees, including apprenticeship or trade papers, for each person aged 19 years old and older.

•Original baptismal certificate (if available – newly issued ones are not acceptable) for each accompanying child plus one photocopy of each








PROOF OF RELATIONSHIP IN CANADA
You must prove your relationship to your sponsor in Canada. The following documents are necessary to establish this link. To be considered, the documents submitted must be historical and must pre-date the sponsorship.
•A copy of your sponsor's original Record of Landing (IMM 1000).
•Proof that your sponsor has either declared you as a dependent on a Canadian personal income tax declaration (i.e., a certified copy from income tax return – from 1989 to 1992 – listing dependents and amounts received with copy of Annex 6), or as a beneficiary on official documents (the date you were designated should be mentioned on the document). Residents of Quebec can provide us with a certified copy of their Quebec income tax along with Annex A.
•All school certificates, diplomas and degrees, including apprenticeship or trade papers, for each person aged 19 years old and older.
•Photocopy of the Primary school Register of Admission showing the name of the pupil and parents, the name and location of the school, and the year of attendance. (We will not accept Attendance Registers and letters from the school.) This document must bear the original school seal and headmaster's signature. This document is required for each accompanying child.
•Original health card (newly issued ones are not acceptable) that was issued shortly after birth for each accompanying child plus one photocopy of each.
•Original baptismal certificate (if available – newly issued ones are not acceptable) for each accompanying child plus one photocopy of each.
•If your sponsor in Canada is your child or sibling, provide their short form birth certificate (document issued immediately after birth).
•If your sponsor in Canada is your grandchild, provide their birth certificate and their parents' birth certificates.
•If you have been adopted, provide evidence that you have been placed with a Child Welfare Authority and that your sponsor has the authority to take you to Canada, in the form of a letter of “No Objection” from provincial authorities.
•If you have been adopted and one or both of your parents are deceased, provide the “Official Certificate of Death” as issued by the Registrar's Office (as applicable) plus one photocopy. We will not accept a “Statutory Declaration” alone.
We will not accept as proof of relation:
•Newly issued documents, except for very young children.
•Health cards as proof of relationship between a child and a father.
•Photocopies of documents or amended documents. Only genuine originals are accepted.
The speed with which we can decide whether an interview is required in your case depends on the availability of original documentation to prove your claim – do not renew or amend documents, as these will be rejected.
The documents provided are verified to confirm their authenticity and this will cause delays in your application. If you wish to speed up your application because you do not have the required documents, you may opt to undergo DNA testing at your own expense. Indicate your willingness to proceed with DNA testing by attaching a letter to your completed application.

Hi:

I received letter from CIC Singapore requesting for DNA test to prove PARENT-CHILD Relationship. If anyone has undergone the same process or knows someone who had to take the DNA test then please shade some light on this matter. I am worrying about the potential delay this may cause in the processing of the application. My timelines are below:

April 12, 2006      --  Sponsorship Application Received by CPC- Mississauga
March 13, 2008    --  Processing started by CPC-M for Sponsorship
March 13, 2008   --  Decision Made for Sponsorship by CPC -M . Sponsorship Approved on this day.
April 22, 2008      --  Processing for PR started by CIC - Singapore
Dec 6, 2010        --  DNA Test requested Letter Received sent by CIC - Singapore.

FYI: I email CIC-Sigapore couple months back and I was told that 42 months is waiting period to start reviewing the file and seems like they have started my file in 33th month after they received the package.

Any info about the DNA Test and potential delay will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi,

I am new to this forum. I read few posts, seems very helpful. I sent my sponsorship application (jointly co-signed with my wife) in November 2009 to sponsor my parents and received letter in December 2009 from CPC Mississauga that “they have received our application but has not heard anything since then.

November 2009 - Sponsorship application sent to CPC Mississauga
December 2009 - Sponsorship Application Received by CPC- Mississauga

While going through few posts I noticed normally Stage 1 was completed in approx 2 years. I am sure when I sent in my stage 1 application waiting time was not 51 months as it says now on CIC website. Can some one please advice, what timelines will be applicable for our application? Is it current one or the one at the time of application received?

Does anyone have a similar situation? I know it's just a beginning of long wait period.

Thanks in advance.
