Congratulations!

I didn't withdraw it, IRCC didn't consider it anymore after I re-apply with another application
why did you decide to switch portals? i m in the same boat as u but my first application is from gckey portal and its been 10 months i haven't received a decision so i am thinking of reapplying from iirc portal. i am wondering if u abandoned ircc portal, then is there something wrong with it or not.

my application in ircc portal didn't move for 70days. the study of eligibility even not started (I thought I made some mistake in the forms or there are missing docs)
So I decided to re-apply with gc-key (I submitted my flight ticket).

Hi All-

I have applied for my parents visa on March 27th still have not heard any update (apart from bimetrics completed).

I want to apply for my inlaws and me and my wife will be sponsor again on this application. Is it okay or should I wait till my parents visa gets cleared?

Guys. I am in the same boat. No movement on new IRCC portal since march 10. I don't know what to do now. Last update was biometrics completed for my mother in law.
