    Dependent child sponsorship

    Application will be processed as normal. Would warn you there are long wait times for services for children experiencing similar issues. Many things end up needing to be paid out of pocket because of long wait times and limit on how much services/funds you can receive from the province...

    Visitor visa question – apply from home country instead of South Africa?

    You can apply from your home country but I wouldn’t count on the posted processing time given the more complex application. Do not book travel until you have the TRV.

    Dependent child sponsorship

    So your child was listed as non-accompanying on your PR application? When did you land as PRs and when was your child born?

    Parents & Grandparents Program (PGP) 2023

    Getting PGP is literally like winning the lottery these days. Given Canada’s health care crisis and ageing population it’s slightly shocking it even exists and many Canadians were outraged when they suddenly discovered the program existed this year. Processing when you got selected was around 3...

    Parents & Grandparents Program (PGP) 2023

    There was no error so not sure what you expect an MP to do.

    Visitor visa question – apply from home country instead of South Africa?

    If he is home country his TRV file can be filed there. Would not count on processing times in general but especially the one listed for his home country if he spends the majority of time in South Africa.

    Help writing an invitation letter for a visitor visa

    Would not include your information at all. Your wife can go visit her mother but your family is attempting to extend her stay in Canada as a visitor. That is viewed as personal choice. Very justify needing a TRV to visit another visitor in Canada.

    Only appears that they have AIP

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Given current economy and sentiment around immigration I don’t see any chance that there will be pressure to increase any form of immigration except the highly skilled category. Makes no sense why a US (especially under 45) can’t secure PR, why PhDs in STEM wouldn’t have an easier pathway to...

    Protected person moving out of quebec

    It will help but how much is tough to say. Depends on where in the process you are and how IRCC puts you in the queue. Processing times have been increasing for protected people outside of Quebec as well. It is a pure math issue. Way too many people waited for the allocated PR capacity...

    Refugee Sponsorship Inquiry from the Philippines

    Agree they haven’t closed it but there is a good chance they may decrease or pause the program going forward as backlogs continue to grow.

    Did you and your wife meet RO when you applied?

    What do you mean you are on your 4th year now? You had to stop studying in March.

    Visitor Visa Refusal - Strong Profile but Denied for 'Ties' and 'Purpose'. Advice Needed!

    The money likely doesn’t even cover the cost of processing. People have explained in detail why you were denied. You can pay to order GCMS notes to see if that gives you more details if you want. Your reason for refusal are quite normal. Your only real tie is your job and that is in a country...

    Alberta Opportunity Stream Application

    Wasn’t suggesting it for Alberta but to try to secure PR via other pathway. It may be very difficult to get selected in Alberta working in tourism and hospitality. If you know French outside Quebec you have the easiest pathway to PR these days.

    Visitor Visa Refusal - Strong Profile but Denied for 'Ties' and 'Purpose'. Advice Needed!

    Would add that IRCC also is fairly suspicious when you mention you will be visiting a friend who you are in a relationship with and will want to remain in Canada. Studying in the UK, visiting Australia last year, moving/working in Germany and then wanting to visit Canada could raise concerns...

    No updates on Super Visa application

    Did they receive AOR? Would send a webform or call IRCC to see if they flag that your parents has not received BIL.

    Dependent child sponsorship

    During the height of COVID there were less applications being processed so that is why you may have had such fast processing time Family reunification was also prioritized. Think the 5 month processing is the abnormal processing time not the current one.
