    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

    I would complete another medical. I think things can get complicated if you ask for more info and challenge their decision. Things usually move fast after the 2nd medical. We received passport request around 40 days after the completion of the medical exam. Yours could be even faster as your...

    Thanks for your reply. You’re right things can get more complicated with this change. I will call IRCC and see what would be the best approach. Do you know anyone who had picked up visas from Ankara via a travel agency after the pandemic? I checked the thread; it looks like all the examples are...

    Before the pandemic, when VACs accepted passports in person, there were travel agencies that picked up visas from VAC in Turkey (we used it for picking up visitor visas). I am just not sure how things work with the courier option only. I think the timelines must be very long (first the travel...

    I think ours was processed in Mississauga as well (noted in my sponsorship approval letter). However, they asked for my parents’ current address after the 2nd medical request. Perhaps, it was sent to Ankara at that point.

    Hi, Congratulations for the passport request. :-) How are you planning to submit the passports to VAC in Turkey, considering that in person submission is not possible due to COVID? Will you use travel agencies? I am in the same boat and a bit concerned about the fact that post/courier is the...

    Hello everyone, I received the passport request email for my parents today. For passport submission, they need to go to Turkey (Iranian residents) and mail their passport via courrier services to VAC from there. They both have valid visitor visas. Can they travel to Canada and use the virtual...

    Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

    Hi everyone, Are second medical requests sent automatically after the expiry of the first ones or an officer should ask for it? The first medicals were completed on June 14, 2020. I received second medical requests today. Does that mean someone is working on our file and send a request? Should...

    I was reviewing the scanned copies of the forms I sent back in June and I noticed an error in IMM5406. I have copy-pasted the wrong address for one of my mom's siblings in IMM5406 (i.e., the same address was repeated twice). Should I send a corrected version of the form via email or web form? I...
