My wife is a the primary applicant , we both living inside Canada. she successfully linked her application in Gckey account. I’m the dependent applicant and I can see my status through Ecas but I can’t link my profile in Gckey account. Any idea how I can link my profile into Gckey account ? I did not received any AOR but my wife she got it. In Ecas status says they received my application 07 June 2023 and start processing my application 17 November 2023.


Waiting for the valuable response.

I applied for PR as protected person end of September 2023 I haven’t received an AOR yet but I realized I didn’t electronically sign the Schedule 14 form. Cause I thought the electronically signature at the end of the application on the portal count as a signature. Should I worry? Should I do it and send it through webform? Is this a reason for a return or the agent may just ask for it later? Have anyone be in my position?

If you have consultant and you believed them, why you ask here? You wasted your and our time. Right? If you dont trust people here who shares their own experiences, then you dont need to ask. :)
I have doubt on consultant that why asking people who are in same boat and experienced everything personally. I even tried to apply by myself but stuck on eligibility check.
:(

I believe only main applicant can link the application to GCKey account, since it is basically considered one application. I have the same situation as well, only I'm able to link the application, not my wife. She can't even get to see anything on Ecas.
