Hi, I applied my son PR on 31/Oct/2023, He born in UAE while we were having PR status.
We permanently moved to Canada in July so i thought not to waste time and have applied his PR.
Will keep everyone posted with the timeline and outcome.

Unclear when your son was born and whether he is in Canada or abroad. Yes as a PR you are required to be and remain in Canada during the sponsorship process. A vacation of 2-3 weeks seems to be overlooked. Is the spouse sponsoring your son compliant with their RO?

Not yet, but if we have handful of people who are in similar situation or want to join, we can initiate one group.

Sorry, can you please be more clear on this?
Are you compliant with your residency obligation, ie. 730 days + in Canada in last five years or since day of first landing (if you landed less than five years ago).

Or possible easier way to calc: have you been outside of Canada less than 1095 days since becoming a PR (or last five years if you landed more than five years ago). If it's less than 1095 days outside Canada, you are compliant.

If it's been less than 1095 days (three years) since you became a PR, you have been outside Canada less than 1095 days since becoming a PR.

So i landed on 02/Aug/2020 and left Canada and returned back 25/July/2023, My PR issued on 02/Aug/2020, so i just calculated the days and i was out of Canada 1057 days exactly,

You should be fine to sponsor then. Strong note to keep in mind the residency obligation going forward - like I would definitely recommend travelling as little as possible until you've accumulated the 730 days plus.

Guys, any idea on the below, as i am trying to login on application status tracker and getting the below error.

Correct these errors:
  • Incorrect or invalid information. Review and make sure it matches the information submitted on the Use of a Representative [IMM 5476] form or the Authority to Release Personal Information to a Designated Individual [IMM 5475] form. If you can’t create an account, it may be because your client’s application is not in our system yet.
