[urvishshah]

When I checked GC Key today, the October 04 deadline is now October 05 - not exactly sure but I hope it is a deadline for IRCC agent

Same here when I checked GC Key today.. Exactly the same under 'Optional documents' - For us it is Oct 6th as the date.

Hello,

I received a physical mail from CIC to provide IMM5768 for my mothers PGP application that was submitted in 2021. I have 3 questions hoping i would get a clarification here

1) I had already submitted the form along with the initial application and in the initial application i had checked email as the means of communication but they sent me a physical letter requesting for the forma again (in the letter it is stated that "If not already included in the application please obtain and submit as soon as possible". so should i just ignore this request or resubmit again?

2) In the form for question "12. Every other family member not listed above and dependent on you financially, whether they are living with you or not.", the only dependent i am having is my mother for whom i have submitted this application. Do i fill her name and details under this question in that case?

3) Should i be sending the completed completed document to IRCC.CPCMParentsandGrandparents-Parentsetgrands-parentsCTDM.IRCC@cic.gc.ca?

Thank you in advance.

My apologies could someone provide any insight?

I guess, there is no need to go to any border. The Photo and address update on PR Portal is your virtual landing. Once the photograph and address is approved, you will get eCOPR pdf in PR portal

Thanks

Hello, I have a question from all the people who have applied and if a similar scenario applies to anyone.

I meet the MNI for 2020 and 2021, my income for 2019 was about 4k lower than what is required to sponsor my wife's parents. My daughter was born in 2020 so that increased my family size by 1. . so how would CIC evaluate the MNI ?

Family size in 2021 = 7 (meeting MNI) (including parents that will be sponsored)
Family size in 2020 = 7 (meeting MNI) (including parents that will be sponsored)
Family size in 2019 = 6 (meeting MNI for 6 people and NOTfor 7 people) (my daughter was born in 2020 and that is when my family size increased)

any help would be appreciated.

This is a little tricky one but in my understanding, you should be good. If you think about Form imm5768, Section 14, you need to provide the Gross Income and Family size. You make sure that you provide the right family size (excluding the new born in 2019).

Hope this helps.

Thanks!

this looks like AOR to me, but I can't be sure until you provide first several lines (cover important info like uci and name of course). AOR and sponsor approval sometimes come in as physical mail even if you provided email.
EDIT: if it's AOR you can ignore 5768 request.

yes it's AOR. you don't have to resend any form if already submitted in last year's application. Like the letter says "If not already included in the application..."
there will be a separate request if there is any specific document needed down the road.
