Hello,
My PR in in the background check stage. I just got ADR for proof of settlement funds, it this normal for PNP applications? Also they requested employment record and proof of income and i have lost my job due to maternity leave, any suggestions on what i should do?
 
Hello @Miss bee - thanks for continuously answering our questions here!! Hopefully you can give me an insight on the questions i have regarding the request for additional documents on my pr application.. I would greatly appreciate your thoughts on it..

1. Newly completed Schedule A Background Declaration (IMM5669)
Schedule A: A separate and newly completed Schedule A Background Declaration (IMM 5669) form bearing a signature with updated personal, address and travel history from the past 10 years with no gaps in addresses or activities. In addition, ensure that you provide responses to all Statutory Questions as well as additional explanations for all statutory questions which you have provided a response of Yes.
- Previously I answered this with overlapping dates, for example I had an entry for my studies (Sept 2021-Dec 2023) and also had an entry for the internship i was doing (May 2022-Dec2022, Sept2023-Dec2023) is this correct? Should I have not put in overlapping entries?
- What does it mean to not leave a gap in the personal history? On my previous answers i would put in entries like the one below, is this correct that there is no gap here?
  • Jul 2021 - Aug 2021 - Unemployed - Philippines
  • Sep 2021 - Dec 2023 - Studying - Canada
  • Jan 2024 - PRESENT - Working - Canada
- For areas where i do not have any answers (Membership and association with organizations,Government positions, Military and paramilitary service) i put in 'none' in the first entry. Is this correct? Should I have just left it blank?

2. Additional document requested for employment records
Employment records: An original and recent letter of employment (LOE) from employer(s) must be on official letterhead. The letter must state the length of employment, salary, job title and job description (your responsibilities as well as the specific duties you performed for this position)
- Should i be including all letters of employment from all jobs i held from the past 10 years? even the ones that are not related to my NOC? or only the one that is related to my OINP application and NOC code (21232 - Software Developer)?

3. Additional document requested for Proof Of Funds
Funds, proof: Please provided updated proof of settlement funds such as bank statements for the last 6 months (Included date each account was opened; current balance of each account; average balance for the past 6 months). This letter should include the financial institution’s letterhead and contact information (address, telephone number and email address).
- Is this something i should be concerned about? while i have savings set aside in case IRCC does ask for proof of funds that is in line with the express entry POF, i thought proof of funds is not required for the oinp non express entry application.
- I have just called my bank (TD Bank) and while they are able to provide me with the current balance of each of my accounts and the bank statements from the last 6 months, they are not able to provide me with a statement indicating when each account was opened or the average balance for the past 6 months. does anyone have an idea how i can go about this?

4. Additional Family Info IMM5406
Additional Family Info IMM5406: A separate and newly completed Additional Family Information form (IMM5406) bearing original signatures.
- I am a single applicant, with no spouse or children. On my previous application I left those areas blank as I don't have a spouse or children. Is this correct? Should I have put in these fields to indicate 'none' or something? Just wondering why i would need to redo this form..


5. General Question
- For the forms requested to be replaced, should i print the forms and do an actual signature on the forms and scan again and upload? or just writing my name on the signature field would suffice?


sorry if i have a lot of questions, thank you @Miss bee, i hope you get to notice my post and thanks also to whoever spends some time to give me some insight in this kind of stressful scenario i am in!

- I was unemployed for a time while i was preparing to travel to Canada to start my studies, is it correct that i just put in activity as unemployed?
- For areas where i do not have any answers (Membership and association with organizations,Government positions, Military and paramilitary service) i put in 'none' in the first entry. Is this correct? Should I have just left it blank?

- A sibling has just been recently married in my home country of the Philippines but their current residence is the US and has not updated their status/name yet. Should i still indicate their maiden name or married name? will this matter?

sorry if i have a lot of questions, thank you in advance to whoever spends some time to give me some insight in this kind of stressful scenario i am in!
I got exactly the same ADR s today.
 
@Miss bee Hope you can help me with this question:

My tracker has just been updated with the CoPR details (number, expiry date) for me and my 3 dependents.
When should I expect to receive P2? I received P1 on June 4th. I applied August 1 2024.
When exactly our study/work permits automatically expire? Once we get P2? Once we receive eCoPR for download?

Portal 2 email can take around 4-8 weeks or maybe more these days . Once you get Signed ECOPR , your all other permits and visas become invalid. If you haven't got ECOPR but only got portal 1 or 2 email, you are still temporary resident and have to maintain your status.
 
@Miss bee Looking for some advice - I made my application on July 23, 2024 and recieved my PAL on February 11, 2025 which was the last update. When I orginally recieved my AOR on Dec 20, 2024 my GCKey was showing medical as completed (assuming they considered my last medical which was done in July 2021). The tracker also showed a random expiry date for my medical as Jan 10, 2025. After getting my PAL, the medical section in my GCKey tracker started showing as blank with no details mentioned in it whatsoever. Now it it has been more than 5 months since the PAL update and I have not recieved any ADR or P1 or any communication from IRCC. I managed to give them a call last week and they said that nothing further is required from my end, I also pointed out that the medical section is showing up as blank to which the agent on call replied that if a new medical is required the officer will send a request for it. My current PGWP expires in Dec 2025 so I am starting to get worried now. Should I wait this out ? Raise a webfrom ? Try applying through express ? Request GCMS notes ? (For context I am an inland aplicant through the OINP working as an engineer) I have been seeing lot of July applicants get their P1/P2s and even ECOPRs while I have recieved nothing yet. Thanks in advance to everyone who can shed some light on this.

I would raise a webform requesting updates. That call center is normally useless, they basically just read whatever you can see in the profile.

I received P1 on June 19 (I replied the same day). On Friday, my COPR status was updated in the tracker. Should I expect P2 in the next couple of days?
 
Hi @Miss bee , hope you are doing well.
quick question, my tracker says that my application is updated since yesterday but I don't see any actual update on tracker and GCKey account. what could this possibly mean? applied exactly a year ago and waiting for FD.
Hi @Miss bee, any input on this? could this mean a sign as I haven't heard anything from IRCC since February.

If your application tracker shows that it was updated recently but you don’t see any visible changes in either the tracker details or your GCKey account, it could mean a few different things. Often, these “ghost updates” happen when an immigration officer accesses your file without making any visible or substantive updates. It might also occur due to internal system checks or automated processes. While it’s not always a sign of immediate progress, it can sometimes indicate that your file is being reviewed. Since you’ve been waiting for a final decision (FD) for a year, this could be a sign that your application is moving through the final stages

Appreciate your quick response. hoping for a positive response soon.
 
@Miss bee Please can you assist with this? My friend and his spouse applied for PR. He is the primary applicant and is here in Canada (currently on PGWP) but has received his P1. His wife is back in India and has received her eCOPR and sticker visa with December expiry. Can she come to Canada and complete her landing/PR process while my friend (her husband), who is the primary applicant is still waiting for his P2 and eCOPR?

Your advise on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
