    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2021

    Hi guys, my parents plan to soft land next month, but we have two questions. 1. Do they need any proof of funds? It isn't specified here except to declare such funds, but want to confirm. 2. I'm currently not living in Canada - will come back in a couple of months and rent a new place. I have...

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2021

    Submitted via VFS at their office. No SMS, but parents opted for courier on the way back. Thank you for the extra bits of information! So it looks like if GCKey shows DM, then another 3-4 days for the PP to be available for collection and/or to be couriered.

    Thank you so much for your responses. We were all getting a little nervous about how long it was taking and wondering if something was up. We will continue to wait and keep tracking the status :) I'm sorry I've been extremely busy due to our newborn and haven't been able to contribute much...

    Parents received PPR and they submitted them via VFS to New Delhi. It's been "In process" since 23rd and today is 30th. Is it usual for it to take so long? Status on GC hasn't changed either. It still says "We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update...

    My parents (from India) will be visiting the USA for the next few months. From what it appears here, people are receiving pre-arrivals and PPRs lately. If they receive a PPR while in the USA, would they be able to submit their passports from the US? City is Dallas.

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2021

    Guys, I'm in a bit of a pickle here. My parents were invited and they subsequently applied for their PR in Nov 2021. Recently, (2 months ago) I had to move out of Canada due to a few personal reasons, although I will not hesitate to move back with my parents when their PR is approved. I haven't...

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2021

    Confused about two things. Please help! 1) Does the sponsor need to sign the document checklist by hand still? If yes, where? I don't see any provisions for signing this document. 2) Do we still need to upload photos if biometrics are being taken? If no, will the photos from their old...

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2021

    I don't see him/her as venting their frustration. It was confusion resulting from you saying you've been studying abroad for 12 months which led us to believe you'd applied when you were not a resident of Canada. Only this message clarified that you started your studies this week for the next 12...

    Work Permit from India - Form 5905-E says "Peru"

    This is a little weird. When I select "India" to the question "Where are you applying from" here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/apply-work-permit-outside-canada.html, the form "visa office requirements for applicants in...

    OCI process

    Was able to reach their call center person. Not open on Saturdays. Went and picked up our OCIs and surrendered passports. Our super long journey is finally complete. Whew. Quick question, our OCI has our Canadian passport number in them. What happens when we renew our Canadian ppt and then the...

    Anyone know if BLS Brampton is truly open on Saturdays for OCI pickup? The website says so, but Google says otherwise.
