Good morning all, sorry this is off the topic..

My parents got multiple visa in Canada and it's expiring on Jan 5, 2019 ( both of them are in our home country) does anyone know here if we can renew or apply for a new visa as early as now ( because it's only 3 months valid now and they cannot use it anymore) or we have to wait for it to expire before we apply a new one ?

Thanks in advance for your help! :)
You can apply for a new one.

I did not get any Email so far but did get a letter in paper mail dated 31 Aug 2018 that my application under PGP 2018 is accepted. ECAS shows Application received. Anyone else who only got paper mail?

Also Yulia can please update for me. Thanks
If you got regular mail, then quite sure you won't be getting an email.

Congratulations to you and your parents! I *think* anyone can flagpole, as long as you have a legal VISA/permit to return back to Canada.

Good morning!

Our parents separated a decade ago but didn't file for annulment or divorce. One has a partner and have kids and the other hasn't. If we are to sponsor them, are we going to apply for them separately?

Kindly share your thoughts , experience regarding this. thank you

I think so and need to fill out common law form for 1st one
otherwise he cant bring his new family
AND you family size will be = all of these people + your family, do you have enough income to sponsor everybody?

Here is my situation,
GCKey got a pre arrival letter posted on September 12, however the status has not changed from reviewing the documents you have provided and reviewing your background check.
Online tool, since last Thursday Sept 13, changed to Decision made on PR.
No emails, and also the GCKey states "Action required" but they have not requested anything, we already provided the Police certificate...
What do you think is happening?

That letter is being sent to everyone. I got it before even receiving medical, pcc request.
Difficult to say what is happening otherwise. Maybe GCKey will update when you get PPR.
