Ankara is open but prioritizing process of specific applications and PGP is not one of them. I emailed them last week to add a doc to my file and that was the response i received.
plus, i have a friend in CIC and she was saying background checks are very slow as it is done through a 3rd party agency. This also impacts immigration applications.
Thank you for the information... I hope after a while they don't say that these PGP applications are all canceled/ suspended because much time passed :(

Same question :/
Delhi NDVO is only partially working - for only high priority / emergency cases. They have not described what constitutes priority. Other Visa offices, such as Chandigarh etc, in India are still closed.

Hello, my father-in-law was requested for biometrics for his PR application which we did almost immediately end of January 2020. We made sure we brought CIC's letter as per instruction and they took his biometrics so everything was fine. The problem is, he has a pending Supervisa extension application and I think this is where his biometrics for PR got uploaded. How do we go about checking this? Should we just call CIC and ask? Has anyone come across this problem before?

Edit: I'm looking at his Biometrics request letter from his PR application and the UCI number tied to it has his SuperVisa application UCI and not the PR application UCI although the Application number was right. The letter that he got though on his Supervisa application account just now though has the Supervisa UCI and Application number claiming that his biometrics is valid for any TR application 10 years from May 2020.

Please help.

I think it can happen if you are submitting the form on behalf of your principal applicant. The applicant would be your parent and you are the sponsor. It happened once with me when I was inquiring about my parent's sponsorship application. I sent them clarification that I am the sponsor/representative and gave the details of PA. They then confirmed it to be correct. They are not responding these days, so good to hear that you atleast have reached their radar. Best
Yes. I contacted IRCC by web form twice. The first time was in Feb 2020, to infom CIC that my baby's birth. Because I'm the sponsor, so I contacted CIC under the sponsor's UCI. The second time was in this month. My parents moved to Canada to visit me on visitor visa, so I informed CIC about my parents' address change. They responded pretty quickly, usually within 2-3 days.

Hi Everyone, I hope someone can help me with a question. My mom(dependent)'s passport expires and have not apply for a new passport as yet since the pandemic lockdown in my country. my mom is planning to renew her passport next month. my question is do i need to submit the new passport info via webform as i cant seem to link my or my dad application, or should i wait until they ask for the new passport for stamping then? hopefully someonw might be able to answer. thanks
Hi Everyone, this question reminds me that my wife's passport is also expired. She hasn't applied for a new one due to covid-19. She's the co-signer. Do I also need to inform CIC about the passport's issue? Or the co-signer's passport doesn't matter?

Hi Everyone! Need your experience with GCMS notes! In my last notes I see that criminality for my parents in progress. So they are open my file? But I didn't receive even AOR yet. Ecas status not available. What does it mean? And I also didn't find a note about about my newborn.
Hi, some applicants haven't received their AORs. AoR acknowledges that your file is under process, so it is good that your file is under process as they are processing it although you didn't receive the AOR.

Hi! I received my AOR in October, documents were requested in February and submitted by mid-March and haven't heard anything since. Is IRCC processing sponsorships right now?

Hey guys, what's the fastest way to get proof of residence in Ontario?

I'm trying to get OHIP health card for my parents and OHIP is asking for proof of residence. We can open a bank account but probably have to wait for a week or 2 for bank letters to arrive.

Anyone knows any faster alternative?

Thanks!
