Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[hannan_1949]

Hi fellows,

I applied for my parents case in Jun 2019. So far,ecas is showing Sponsor Status is Decision made and Applicant status is In Process.

Under Applicant, it says we started processing your application on Dec 8.2021. The file was transferred to London in Aug 2021. We have submitted Biometrics and PCC but there has not been any single Medical Request yet.

My dad landed in Canada on a Visitor Visa in Jan 2022 and plan to stay for the next 4-5 months.

Do I need to update the address on file for him? My mom is still back home though. Kindly advise. Thank you

Since medical examination request not received both parents should be at one place either in Canada or in Home country.

Hi,

I received Dec 03, 2021 “Right of Permanent Residence Fee” and "pre-arrival services" letter for my mother (I only sponsor my mother, as she's widowed) which I paid the same day, today I've checked the status and it's coming as "Decision Made"
one thing to note: couple weeks ago my MP told me you'll be getting Passport request soon and immigration officer has set the reminder to Feb 02 to check again the file, I'm not sure about this but I'm anticipating I'll be getting Passport request soon? Any guess or previous experience can please comment.

Did you receive the COPR yet ?

Not yet.

 

[Niniaz]

Don't worry about the possibilities. Just wait for the passport to be stamped.
You can see in MyCIC when COPR is created and how long the PR visa will be valid.

Thank you. Sure. Will do it.

 

[Niniaz]

Usually you get a months grace period or at least a few weeks.

Thank you so much.

Yes, and do it ASAP. It can take up to month to get the address updated. Once address is updated to Canada the process is faster.

 

[hannan_1949]

Many had to send multiple webforms and call CIC repeatedly. If you have not done yet, speak with your MP.

Did you receive COPR

It is not the case. Even if address is changed to Canada, it doesnt mean they will process it faster. My parents are here since Nov 2020 and I changed the address right then and still they have not got PR. Send multiple webforms and contacted MP but all in vain.

Hi all, May 2019 applicant here. Got request for marriage certificate in Dec 2021. Sent them the required documents but no update since then. They are just delaying asking documents one by one. I know there are many in the same boat waiting on PR. It is the point where I totally lost hope that they will give PR even in next 6 months. My parents are here since Nov 2020 on visitor visa and extending their stay after every 5 months. Contacting MP doesnt help either. Webforms has the same automatic shitty reply. When I hear cases for approved PR for applicants after 2019 batch I feel very frustrated and sad at the same time about how the system is operating.
Sorry long post guys but just taking out my frustration!!

Hi, any idea how long the background check takes? Status has been stuck at Background check processing for the last 2 months.

Hi everyone,

An update on my parents file, @YULIA-2016 @robertp @laxsun @serious_cheese please update tracker:

Remedical test for both my parents on 12 Jan 2022
Pre-arrival instructions on 13 Jan 2022
medical test completed on 25 Jan 2022
Daily Living Assessment on 2 Feb 2022

Today 2 Feb 2022, Physician called my father(85 yrs old) to find on his daily living, kind of assessing if he walks without any support, if he drives, jogging his memory for address, DOB, phone number etc.
There were no concerns so hoping my parents file will be approved.

seems like there is some progress on the file after long long pause. It’s unfortunate for the 2019 PGP group
who are still waiting for the decisions. its just waiting game, hoping for the best to happen. Good Luck everyone!

Hello Experts,

I need help. I know this group is specifically for PGP, but I don't know who can help me with my questions better than this group. I had applied for my niece's visa in Nov 2021 through the new portal and she got a rejection today, she is 2 years old and her parents (my sister) already have a Canadian visa for 10 years and visited me in Canada twice.

1. The reason they gave is that she will not return after her stay.

I am pregnant and also had surgery in September, that's why calling my sister to come here and help me in the initial days. Can someone guide me on what should I do at this point? They said in the letter that I can reapply again and provide the reason.

Please please help!

Hi there! I totally support your post and also frustrated . The same boat. May 2019 application. last set of documents has been sent December 2nd. Nothing since that. Looks like they purposely delay cases ( waiting that our parents will not be able to move due to old age). May be all of us who is in the same situation should send later to Minister of Immigration?

Same here May 2019 applicants. After no progress on our application for eaxctly 2 years from AOR 1, we received Sponsorship approval in Aug 2021 and within a week we completed Bio and Medical. Later they asked for Voter ID, Adhar Card, etc in Sep 2021. Since then, no movement. I just noticed 2020 applicants already receiving their DM and COPR from the same Office CPC-M. I guess we still going to hang around for a while now.
