Quick update:
Final decision has been made to the application.
The status has been updated to 'Approved' today.
My parents are awaiting for their passport and COPR, which I think it would take couple of days.

Detailed time-line in my signature.

Thank you everyone for providing your support and information on this forum.

Hi everyone, I need an advice please. Is it advisable to do advance medical? Application submitted on November 19th. Last email received was for Biometric, on Sept 27th and sponsorship approval the next day, Sept 28th.
Will advance medical fasten the application?

Hi all, myself and my spouse both got invited for pgp on September 2021, both of us submitted the application for our respective parents on November 25, 2021 and since then got sponsor approval, medical, biometric, PCC all done and submitted by June 2021. We both usually get correspondence from cic in our emails and gckey within few days difference in our accounts. My husband received pre arrival services letter for my in-laws this October 27, 2022 whereas I haven’t received any updates after submitting the additional documents requested in June for both my in- laws and my parents. My question is should I contact the VO via webform for updates or should I wait patiently until I hear from them?

Wait for that as your application and your husband's application are different. They are considering two separates application (as two separate invitation number). So, one might approve sooner and other might take long time!!!

Hi All,

From some of the comments in this forum, looks like it takes around 2 weeks to receive the passport back after stamping. Has anyone recently experienced sending passport to VFS for stamping and share the time it took to receive it back ?
My Parents submitted their passports on 17-Oct to VFS and received their stamped passports and COPR via courier on 02-Nov.

"The BSF186A Form is basically your “goods to follow” list to show what goods will arrive in Canada at a later date. This form is also commonly known as form B4A. It's important to complete this form so that you don't pay a duty tax on any of your belongings that you are shipping."
If you parents have anything that is arriving in a later date, they have to complete this form during landing.
Thanks for the information @laxsun . Really Appreciated!

Additionally, "Update that they started reviewing the additional documents provided", Did you receive an email or status change in the gckey?
Hi - Yes, I did receive an email as well saying that they have received the additional documents provided and there was update in the GCkey account as well.
