    Parents & Grandparents Program(PGP) 2025

    Very normal. PGP is a very slow process and there is a 40k application backlog outside Quebec so it will take years to process applications given the annual quota.

    Inland sponsorship

    Report your immigration lawyer for providing incorrect advice. Not applying inland if you are not cohabitating is very basic knowledge.

    Urgent - US Embassy Calgary Going for Interview with kids minors protected person family

    Yes there is no issue bringing their home country passports to prove their identities but would not use it for any other purpose. Your children should really be securing study permits. You can only show what you have.

    The one-time 2-year initiative regarding 115,000 protected persons

    One of the arguments for this 1 time initiative is that the applicants are already in Canada so there would not be any extra demands placed on things like infrastructure. It also would not change the number of immigrants in Canada since people are already in Canada. If you included dependents...

    The one-time 2-year initiative regarding 115,000 protected persons

    Many of governent announcements are often aspirational and the reality often ends up being different. Even if they don’t process 5k/month or even close to that the processing will be faster than it was scheduled to be. Unlike asylum applications, PR processing for the applicants inside Canada...

What is your age, educational background, what NOC do you work in, what province do you live in, what are you language scores, do you speak French, etc.? What is your citizenship?

    Super visa - would medical tests impact the temporary visitor visa

    TB testing or a medical can be requested for a TRV as well. Applying for another TRV with 3 previous refusals is not a great idea especially if they are all in the past few years. You are just highlighting that they are desperate to travel to Canada.

    2026 PR Application Timeline (Protected Person)

    There is no point calling again since it won’t change the speed that you get AOR and the timeline is in line with other applicants. It is essentially a waiting game at this point AOR should be received soon. As long as your timeline is similar to others all you can really do is wait. The...

    2026 PR Application Timeline (Protected Person)

    It’s a completed different type of immigration that was also an option to you if you had chosen to pursue economic immigration versus claiming asylum. You can’t compare both. Claiming asylum or being a refugee has no language test, income/savings requirement, work experience required, education...

    Refugee claimant inquiry

    As already pointed out asylum claimants are very frequently waiting 2-3 years at the moment for a hearing date and given the backlog this will only continue to increase unless there is some sort of significant reform. It is just basic math. I would want to know a realistic time period so I can...

    Spousal sponsorship while short on physical presence

    Do you mean you are not compliant with your RO? When did you get PR and how much time have you spent in Canada during the past 5 years. If not compliant any interaction with IRCc could bring attention to this.

    Pharmacist wishing to immigrate to Canada

    These are not options at all or realistic options given her current profile. She wouldn’t be able to secure a job offer as a pharmacist since she isn’t licensed to work as one in Canada.
