I need your help please

I got an email few days back asking for Adhar card and voter card along with high school certificate to show proof of relation with the PA.
I dont have Adhar card or Voter ID. Can submitting a canceled passport that shows my mothers name is enough to show the proof of relationship.

Hi all,
I am extremely confused with the income requirements to sponsor parents.
Last year, I had put interest for my mother only as I felt my income would not be sufficient to sponsor my mother and father.
I was married from 2018 to mid December (my spouse entered Canada in beginning of 2020) so should I consider 4 people bracket when I am looking for minimum income requirement? This is the requirement shown in CIC website for 4 people for 2020 and prior two years. My income for 2018 and 2019 was below $55k-60k but below the requirement shown. If my wife was not present in Canada, I still need to consider as 4 people for 2018-19 or 3 people in total.

Thank you.

It doesn’t matter if she wasn’t in Canada, you are married and count the total number of people so 4.

Not sure but I have heard that security and Eligibility do not always take very long. My additional document submission date is like yours. I will update you once I hear anything.

hi folks
My mother ( Father passed away 6 years back) was asked to re-do medicals, which she passed again ( Aug 23)
Yesterday, we got additional documents request.

>>>>>>
Travel history

Birth registration/certificate: Please provide a photocopy of your sponsor's birth certificate clearly
indicating their relationship to you, the Principal Applicant. If you cannot provide this, please provide additional
supporting documents proving your relationship. Any documents are not in English or French must include a
notarized and certified translation with a copy of the original document This must be received at this office by:
2021/10/14
> Proof of Relationship: As proof of relationship to the principal applicant, please provide your voter
ID card, Aadhaar card and old school records (Fifth class, Middle standard and Matriculation/secondary school
certificate). NOTE: Affidavits are not acceptable as proof of relationship.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>

1) Birth registration/certificate : I do not have birth certificate. Planning to produce my grade 10 certificate + plus affidavits. Hope this will be sufficient.
2) Proof of Relationship: I have Aadhar card, but it has my father's name. Same with my grade 10 cert, which has my father's name . Same with PAN card.


The only documents I have which have my both parents name are : My Indian passport ( i am Canadian citizen now, but I have copies of old Indian passport) , my marriage certificate,

Anyone faced with this situation. Any ideas to deal with it?
Thanks
Ram
Did they accept your canceled Indian passport for the proof of relationship? I got an email asking for the exact same things as yours. I dont have voter or Adhaar card but I have my grade 12th and canceled Indian passport that I am planning to send.

Thank you. If I am only applying for my mother, do I still look at total number of people as 4 for income requirements? If yes, are there any solutions to this? I don't want to lose this chance of getting invitation for my mother. Thank you!

Hi my sponsored parents in INDIA have got invitation to get Biometric and Medical done at same time and has to be done within 30 days. The issue is that VFS Global ( which handles application in India) does not have any available appointment within 30 days. Any suggestions. I tried other cities too but nothing available before 2 months.
Thanks in Advance
Dont worry book the earliest possible date and send the reference number to CIC . They already know the situation.

I have a few questions:
My parents have their PCC interview due on 25th in INDIA. All other documents have been cleared and uploaded. CPC-Mississauga is their assigned location.

Once I have that and upload it on the cic website, how long does it typically take for the passport request considering they get approved for PR?
Once they submit the passport typically how long would they have to wait for to get it back to them?
If they travel and come to Canada, is there an option to submit the passport within Canada or they have to / should wait their to complete the process instead?
