You are not required to inform IRCC about your son’s and wife’s new passports unless IRCC specifically requests updated passport information during the PR process. Since their current passports remain valid during the application process, it should not affect their PR application.

However, if you receive a request for updated documents (such as a passport request for visa issuance), you should provide the most recent passport details at that time. If your son or wife travels using their new passports, it’s a good idea to update IRCC then, especially if they need a visa or permit linked to their passport number.

Thanks @Miss bee. We are applying for our new TRV's which requires a passport request, within 3 weeks, and this will be done with our current passports.

My sons and wife new passports will be only done after June 2025. Basically, as you mentioned any new visa issuance thereafter , we should use our new passports? Thank you.

Yes, that’s correct! Since your current TRV applications will be processed with your existing passports, the visas issued will be linked to those passports.
After June 2025, once your wife and son receive their new passports, any future visa or permit applications should be submitted using the new passport details. If they travel on their old passports with valid visas, they should carry both the old and new passports for verification.

Given that your child’s study permit application, submitted in late November 2024, is still under processing, and they have now received an offer for an undergraduate program, you have a couple of options to consider:
1. Submit the New Offer Letter via IRCC Webform:
You can update the existing study permit application by sending the new university offer letter through the IRCC Webform. This allows IRCC to consider the updated information without requiring a new application. However, processing times for such updates can vary, and there’s no guarantee that the new information will be reviewed before a decision is made on the current application.

2. Submit a New Study Permit Application:
Alternatively, you can submit a new study permit application that includes the latest offer letter and all other required documents. This ensures that all information is current and relevant to your child’s intended program of study. Keep in mind that this approach will incur additional application fees and will be subject to standard processing times, which, as of November 2024, are approximately 16 weeks for in-Canada applications.

Recommendation:
If time permits and to avoid potential delays, submitting a new study permit application with the updated offer letter may be the more straightforward approach. Ensure that all required documents are included to facilitate timely processing. If your child’s current study permit is nearing expiration, it’s advisable to apply for an extension to maintain legal status in Canada while awaiting the new permit.

It’s important to stay informed about current processing times and requirements by regularly checking the IRCC website or consulting with an immigration advisor to ensure compliance with all regulations.

No, it won't. But for safety, it’s better to come back no longer than 2 months.

Since your PR tracker shows all sections as complete, but you haven’t received the Portal 1 email, it’s likely that your application is in the final review or queue for approval. Here are a few possible reasons for the delay:
Final Officer Review – Even if all steps are marked as complete, an officer still needs to do a final review before sending the Portal 1 request. This can sometimes take weeks.
Batch Processing – IRCC may be processing approvals in batches, and your file could be in a queue waiting for the next round

Security Screening Completion – If security assessment was the last step marked as “Completed,” there might be an internal delay in transitioning your file to the final approval stage.

Administrative Delays – Sometimes, applications remain in the system even after completion due to internal processing delays or system updates.

Since everything is complete, you’re in the final stretch. If you don’t receive Portal 1 within a few weeks, you could raise a webform to confirm the status.

Hello Guys. I hope you are doing well.

My spouse and I applied for the Nova Scotia Provincial Nominee Program (NSPNP) in May 2024 and received our case number in July. However, we have not received any updates since then.

Recently, my wife, who is the primary applicant, transitioned to a different client within the same company. Previously, her role was classified under TEER 4, but her new position falls under TEER 2, making it eligible under the Nova Scotia Skilled Nominee Program. To reflect this change, we updated our documents on March 17, 2025. As a result, our date of submission changed from May 25, 2024, to March 17, 2025.

Could you please confirm whether this update will impact our processing time? Specifically, will our application be treated as a new submission, potentially affecting our ranking in the pool, or will it continue to be processed based on the original submission date?

Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your response.

I applied for PR through a non EE PNP (OINP-PhD graduate stream) on July 26 2024. I received my PAL letter few days ago. I didn't receive a request for medical yet. Is that a good sign that the application is moving on? Any idea about what should I expect in terms of timelines? Would appreciate your input @Miss bee about this?
