Hi everyone, has anyone with multiple overseas dependents experienced receiving PPRs at different times?

A few days ago I received PPRs for two of them, just 18 minutes apart, but nothing yet for the oldest child who turned 18 during the process and I’m a little worried.

Has anyone experienced something similar? If so, how long did it take for the remaining dependent(s) to receive their PPR? I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences. Thank you!

hey can you tell in how much time do your dependents received ppr after medical or do you also received portal 1 ? it will help us alot if you share

Oversea depedants do not do a virtual landing and so there is no portal 1 and portal 2 for them. They do physical landing after getting their passport stamped with a single entry visa which comes with their COPR. The will need to land Canada to be permanent residents. So your dependants should expect PPR after their medical is passed.

For mine it’s took exactly 1
Month after medical to get ppr. But that’s just for two. Still waiting for one more to get a request

When replying P1, do I need to include the overseas dependents information or just my information?

You are in a long queue waiting for landing in Quebec so tough to say how many people are in line ahead of your dependents. Would create a post to ask to see how long others have been waiting for dependents to land in Quebec. There may also be other posts from people looking for information about time between final decision and PPR for for Quebec applicants.

Overseas dependants generally do not use the PR Confirmation Portal for P1, P2, or eCoPR. Their applications are usually processed through the responsible visa office. Once approved, they may receive a passport request (PPR) for visa issuance and their COPR.
