Hi All, First thing first congratulations on being shortlisted and Good luck with your process.
I'm not from 2024 PR group but wanted to understand the timeline.
I got my parents PR app submitted in Aug 2025. So the expected timeline is 1 year roughly to get COPR in hand?
Please let me know

Hi - today morning - I got 2 emails from CPC Mississauga requesting some additional documents (which I had uploaded when I submitted my PGP 2025 application). Then within 2 hours, I got 2 more emails from CPC Mississauga with the subject line "Recall: Citizenship and Immigration Canada - CPCM - Communication to client".

Does this mean I don't need to submit the documents they asked for?

Hi All. No specific questions. Wanted to update my timelines and background. PGP 2024 applicant. For 3 people. Dad, mom and dependent son (elder brother). He is a special needs person (mentally challenged with learning disabilities). Was very doubtful of his eligibility to be sponsored along with parents. So far no issues. All 3 possess valid Canadian visitor visa.

Hello Everyone - Can someone please help me with my 2 questions below:

Question 1: How does I link an application for my mother so that I can check processing status? I have entered her UCI/LastName/DOB/COB and it just keeps on saying application not found.. I have tried this with various combos as "Person Being Sponsored" and also as "Person Sponsoring" where I then entered my details but just keeps saying Application Not Found. I know it's in progress as I have been receiving comms on it.

Question 2: I had paid the full RPRF fees, but then was requested a payment of CAD85/- for RPRF fees. I personally believe that this was because my mother had a request for Biometrics, and I believe IRCC may have used some funds from the originall RPRF fees, and wanted me to replenish it. Has anyone else had something similar done? The CAD85/- was paid a month back and I also submitted the receipt of this through a webform but since then, am just waiting.

Thank you.

Hi! We also submitted RPRF receipt via webform. No update since then and i see the status says “We need additional documents,” is it also like this for you? Thank you!
