Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[YVR123]

How can we declare the jewellert etc, when parents are already in Canada and landed virtually rceently?

Not sure how it's done for virtual landing. But the paperwork is "goods to follow". Not bringing in right now.
I think there's way to send in the form later. But I don't know the details.

All London Office Applicants - looking at the tracker sheet, the last two ECAS status "Decision Made" were back in July and Oct. Any updates worth adding to the tracker @afged, @ranasahib, @rockwidme, @asad4455, @misterbmw, @mbshez and @hjstannum

@Iryna K - I see your biometrics request comments.

We got biometrics along with pre arrival letter on Nov 18. No update since then.

Amazing to see no movement at all from July/Oct timeframe.

I think there was some movement at London LVO but none for applicants from Pakistan being processed at London.

Last update we got from LVO was on Nov 26th. Were asked to submit PCC and updated Forms again.

One of my friend who is not in tracker got the passport request nov 13 and got decision made on oct 29. They got prearrival one month before (sep 29) decision made
London office.

I know many who got prearrival in nov but no decision made until now.

Hello,

I had a question for this group. I am June 2019 applicant and finally seeing some movement. Parents are in Delhi, India and got the request for Biometrics and medical.

A few days after that I got a PDF letter saying my eligibility is approved as a sponsor and if I have not submitted then I should submit all documents, which I did at the time of file submission. The one question is they're asking for PCC in that request, but I have not gotten a request for PCC in a separate email or message.

Shall I move forward with PCC requirements for the parents or wait till they request it through an email?

They did the same on my application, a PCC was requested as a part of the sponsorship approval, not as a separate.

Hi,

We submitted PCC last year December. Does anyone know if we would require to resubmit?

Got this email reply after query "Your file is currently in queue waiting review from an officer" what does this mean. Does it mean file is complete?

Hi,

I am wondering if anyone has recently booked tickets from India to Canada and what their experience has been . I see that the tickets are either not available or are super expensive , not sure what the process has been at the layover airports after the recent PCR test requirements.
Appreciate your response/direction.

Thanks

thank you - they've asked for some other documents as well, but again I have already submitted these? Did you fulfill all of these or you also got some request for docs pre-submitted?

Thanks again.

For the virtually landed parents, how can we declare the properties/bank balance back home?
Also, we dont want to sell it in the nearest future but later in the future for sure,
How can we declare it now and later don’t get taxed on it?

These used be a process of submitting a list of non-accompanying goods to bring to Canada.
You can also declare fixed properties in foreign country during tax filing.

Does anyone know if Pearson airport offers translators for parents landing 1st time and cannot speak English?

Happy Holidays everyone!!

@laxsun Hope you can pls update my application in tracker. We'd received the pre arrival services letter recently and my parents passed the medical exam.

Also, does anyone has an idea of how much time the background check can take and what'll be the next steps?
