Hi Guys,

My parents are flying to Canada in 2 weeks on regular visitor visa (NOT Supervisa), I am expecting their immigration passport request to come in 2-3 months while my parents are in Canada. I hope they don't have to go back again just for passport stamping.

Does anyone know if my parents can submit their passports in Canada while they are here on regular visitor visa ?

Please advice and share your experience.

Regards

Hello everyone!

I sponsored my Father with his dependents. Today he received a passeport request to submitt his passports for visa stamping. My father lives in Algeria. However, his two dependents study and live in Canada. The instruction letter states few options on how and to where to submitt the passeports. Option 1 states where to send the passport if principal resides in Algeria. Option 2 states that if principal and dependents reside in Canada to sent to Ottawa. The issue is, my dad is in Algeria, but dependeds are in canada (Did not see this option)
I am wondering if the two dependents need to submitt to Algeria or send to ottawa since they reside in Canada.

My other question, would they need to leave Canada and Land?

Your response will be greatly appreciated.

Hi JJ1982,

You all need to submit your passports to the LVO processing your application which I think is the same as where your father lives. The dependents can courier their passports to your dad who in turn will submit all of them to the LVO.

My dad's case is a bit similar but the opposite. He's here in canada while the dependents are back home & another one in Dubai. They can only submit in Ottawa if ALL of them are in canada which is not the case.

Once they get their PR visa, those in canada don't need to leave. They now give the option to make an appointment to the nearest CIC office. But exiting in the US is okay too and quick and no need for appointment so we opted to just cross the border so my dad & step mom can get their landed status. The other dependent are scheduled to come by September.

Hope that answer your questions. Regards.

Just to finish my parents' case statistic:

Passports submitted to Ottawa: August 13, 2015
Passports received back with visas: August 20, 2015
Landed at a border: August 25, 2015.

5 years of waiting is over. Good luck to you all.

Hi nitinbali60. If your parents are here in canada or will be by the time of PPR, they can send their PP to the LVO via courier unless they're from country like India which do not allow transporting passport other than by the owner.

But on another hand, CIC also gives an option to submit the PP to Ottawa if ALL applicant including spouse and/or dependents are here in Canada.

So depending on your parents situation, if they do not have dependents in the application which means ALL is just the two of them, then they may submit their PP in Ottawa.

Applied in July 2010, resubmitted all the documents April 2015.. Still waiting. Online application status shows "in process" for sponsorship and "application received" for immigration application.. How much longer will it take roughly...? I guess that I am (and also my parents) are patient however we are anxious whether anything would go wrong...

Hey guys. I a dependent over 22, currently doing masters. I have done bds n then one year house job. Yesterday we got a letter asking regarding me not being a dependent according to them, and asked about proof of me being a full time student. So is doing masters considered a full time student?!? And does one year housejob (internship) makes me not a dependent?!? Please answer seniors.

Hi Seddiq. What exactly are their words when they asked regarding you not being dependent?
If you are below 22 at the time of sponsorship applic, then you're type A.

IMHO, what you need to show them you are dependent is to explain that you are Type A at the time of sponsorship application. Tell them the reference (in a humble and not instructive way) the sections in the IRPA/or OPs that state your dependency situation at the time of application, lock in age and transition benefits that you qualify for.

Just to share my dad's experience to encourage your situation, one of the dependents is now 24 but was type A during the sponsorship. Not only he did not continue schooling, he is also already working, plus he is living abroad where he works and all these was declared. What I did to support his application was --- at the time that cic asked for additional documents, I already included explanation why he is Type A dependant, and as such proofs of continues schooling, etc that are for type B dependents do not apply to him (humbly explained). By God's grace, he now got his PR visa. Hopefully you will too!

Best regards.
