They got biometric requests 20 February, 2022..
No medical yet.....please share if anyone has same problem

Tried as you directed (applicant's UCI and application number, Applicant's UCI and family Name etc), still no luck.

Yes, my mom has 2 dependants. So I used 5 (myself, co-signer, mom and 2 dependants). Still unable to link.

It’s same with everyone whose file transferred to Vancouver. We got sponsor eligibility approval on May 4th with intimation of file transfer to Vancouver. After that no update. We are(parents) in Canada on visitor visa.

I have submitted mine in sep 2021 and haven't heard anything yet and no file number yet.

I submit on Dec 3rd, they asked more information on April 19th. But then never hear anything back. Still shows return on the status. Sad.

I submitted my file in Oct 2021 and first time I heard from IRCC was in June 2022. Then I got everything within like 2 months time . I hope you also get something asap .

Hi everyone. My parents are living in home country. My 17-year-old brother is studying here in Canada and living with me (I am his legal custodian). I submitted the application to sponsor my parents in November 2021, and my 17-year-old brother is a dependent. If my application is approved, my parents will come here to land to become permanent residents. I am wondering how my brother as a dependent can become a permanent resident while staying in Canada? Has anyone had a similar experience with the principal applicant being in home country and a dependent being in Canada? Thanks so much in advance!

Hi Everyone,
Need some URGENT help. My mom received an email notification and letter in her application portal this morning. It says:

After a preliminary review of your application, the following has been deemed required:

Please provide the current residential address for yourself and your dependant family member (if applicable). You must report any changes to your address, telephone number(s) and email address immediately throughout the processing of your application.
Question: Where does she provide the current residential address?

Mom's UCI - Her Name:
> Death Certificate: Please provide a death certificate for your late spouse Dad's Name legally issued by the local governmental authorities. This must be received at this office by:
2022/09/29
Comment: It can be provided.

My UCI - My Name:
> Police Certificate: You are required to provide a copy of your original police certificate from Bangladesh. Please follow these instructions to ensure you provide the correct police certificate: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...pplication/medical-police/policecertificates/
how.html This must be received at this office by: 2022/09/29
Question: I am very confused here. Are they asking for the police certificate for me or for my mom? I left Bangladesh more than 10 years ago.

> Proof of Relationship: Your birth certificate has been received as proof of your relationship to the Principal Applicant and Dependent. Additional information is required. Please provide a copy of your Bangladesh Passport. This must be received at this office by: 2022/09/29
Question: My Bangladesh passport is expired. Can I provide that to them?

Thanks so much for your help!

Hello everyone,

My dad is here on visitor visa. We were waiting all along for his application to process further but it was slow. Butwhen he came to Canada in July, he got medical request which we got done.
Now he got police clearance request and they need few other documents by Sept 19.
He is leaving on Sept 14 so my question is Can I ask for extension to submit police verification? It seems that he has to present in India to have police verification done.

Any inputs will be appreciated. Thank you

Asking for a friend. He was raised by his brother because his parents are deceased. When filling out the PGP application, he used his bro as parent. Now IRCC has requested for proof of relationship such as family registry, household registry, school records of sponsor with name of parents included. Any one know what exactly to provide to IRCC? Thanks

You can get PCC done from here also through BLS but if he is leaving on 14th then its better to explain your situation to IRCC and ask them for extension.
