Parents & Grandparents Program (PGP) 2023

[pg23]

I guess call IRCC and ask if they have got it. If yes then its should be fine.

Yes...thats the option left. As per ircc they state medical will be updated within 30 days from appointment booking date...so will call once this exceeds

Hi, I received PCC request for my parents. Question, in last 10 years my mom has once lived in Canada for more than 6 months, do i need to get PCC from Canada also?

 

[Whistle]

I got AOR last Friday. While submitting the form, I paid biometrics fees as I was not confident that my parents did biometrics earlier in 2019. And my parents didn't remember if their biometrics were done or not.
Now after I linked their account, I got to know that my parents did biometrics in Aug, 2019 and it is valid till Aug, 2029.
Can I get the biometrics fees back?

Application submitted: Dec 3rd
Additional Doc submitted: Mar 15th
AOR: May 10th.

As long as your mom lived more than 6 months in Canada, she will need PCC from Canada.

I am in a similar situation, My mom visited 2 times in the last 10 years which is more then 6 months. She is in India now. How to apply for PCC in Canada if she is not in Canada currently?

I just got AOR on Friday not PCC request yet.

Folks, for all of you who are wondering about PCC from Canada. You don't need one until and unless specifically asked by IRCC. IRCC will mention in your letter which countries specifically they need the PCC for. Source below:

not true. If PCC for Canada is needed - they will specifically ask for it

Note that IRCC requires a new biometrics for PR applications despite having a valid one from previous visitor visa applications. Therefore, do not bother asking for any refunds as you’re already in right path. Good luck!
