the worst thing is that we cannot link dependents application on gc key,the only option for tracking the application is calling ircc and asking update

i think that only for 3-5months your file will be delayed but quebec processing time is extremely high so moving outside quebec is a better choice

your primary applicant should move from quebec my dependents outside canada got additional document request on 12dec 2025 and on 7jan 2026 they recieved pre arrival altough i did not recived p.r

Pre arrival just means sponsor eligibility has passed and has nothing to do with being close to final decision. IRCC should really change the name.

Processing is only one consideration. If employed can she find employment outside Quebec and the cost of living is often higher in places like Ontario so can she afford a higher cost of living.

She is unemployed , what is really concern is processing time as we have 3 kids twin of 2 years and other 5 years , so this seperation in really killing

Please how or where can I check the progress of my application as an overseas dependant of a protected person in Canada? My spouse already has Ecopr and is waiting for his pr card.
However, I am unable to link my application to be able to check what stage I'm at.

You won't be able to link your application anywhere (as much as I know) but what you can do is that if you know which visa office your application is; you can use WebForms to ask about your progress which I always do and it works or directly email the VO but I still recommend WebForms
