sorry to bother you guys but i was just reading the actaul defination of depndants. i will link them below:

You are exempt from the current travel restrictions and can come to Canada if you have a valid COPR and:

  • the COPR was issued on or before March 18, 2020 OR
  • the COPR was issued after March 18th, 2020 and you are an immediate family membersponsored by a Canadian citizen or permanent resident (note that grandparents are not considered immediate family members and cannot come to Canada at this time) OR
  • you’re currently living in the U.S. and will be coming to Canada directly (transiting through the U.S. to Canada doesn’t apply)
To meet the travel restriction exemptions, you must also:

  • be coming to Canada to settle permanently (you cannot come to Canada and leave to go live in another country, even if it’s temporary)
  • show you’re able to quarantine for 14 day

when we click on immediate family member:

Who is an immediate family member
An immediate family member is defined as a



and when we click on dependent child it comes:

Dependant : spouse, common-law partner or dependent child of a permanent resident or principal applicant.


Dependent child
A child who is under the maximum age and is not married or in a common law relationship. Generally, to qualify as dependants, children must
  • be under 22 years old
  • not have a spouse or common-law partner
Note: a child’s age is usually “locked in” when we get a complete application.
Use our online tool to check if your child qualifies as a dependant.
Exception: Children who are at the age limit or older can qualify as “over-age” dependants if they
  • have depended on their parents for financial support since before they reached the age limit and
  • can’t financially support themselves due to a mental or physical condition
Previous age limits:
The age limit has changed in recent years. If your application has been in process for a while, one of the older definitions of dependent child may apply. Generally, we use the rules in place when we get your complete application. Previous age limits for a dependent child:
  • From August 1, 2014 to October 23, 2017: under 19 years old
  • On or before July 31, 2014: under 22 years old
Note: The rules for over-age dependants are different for applications that were submitted on or before July 31, 2014.



dont u guys think the first defination of dependent which is in bold letters my brother fits in that criteria?
Once again. I would say your brother can come with your parents but it is a game, even we have logical proofs however it totally depends on officer. Have you ever emailed them or asked for authorization letter?

Hi, wanted to share from my experience: my parents came to Canada in July. Before the flight i contacted Canadian Ambassador in their country and they provide us with a letter, which says, they are allowed to enter Canada. They were asked to present this letter during boarding process and also in Canada. We provided all the documents to Ambassador (birth certificate and my Canadian passport).

I called IRCC today and they told me that our file is moved to NDVO. She said the file is actually in CPC-M but will be worked on by NDVO. She said that reason for that might be the workload that the immigration office has herein Canada.

My parent's current address is of Canada as they are currently here and I did tell her that, but she said she can't do anything in it.

For our file, DM2 is since March and after that, there has been no movement at all.

Still the online status shows the application has been received on June 24th, 2019. No more progress or updates. So frustrating.

@alexpritie @geol : Once Immigrant Visa issued to any applicant, all other valid visas for Canada is automatically canceled. I called IRCC called the centre and they have informed me. Airport officer allowed my friend's parents but took original passport for admissibility hearing.[ They were travelling valid supervisa but expired COPR] Officer explained them they are not allowed to enter without authorization letter from New delhi. Double check before you move ahead.

Hi Everyone

I have heard that CPC-M opened last week and all officers are back to work. But couldn't see any update.
Hopefully, they will start working soon after COVID-19. If anyone get any update ,please advise asap......it will keep us motivated.

Thank You and stay safe !
Hope they can back to normal work, it's already stuck for many months, no updates since the end of March.

I am quite confusing. File transfered before DM2 or DM2 then file transfered?? If transfered and then DM2, next should be ppr.

We are travelling on visitor visa as immediate family members of PR. As he has asked that whether travel is possible or not on valid super visa and expired COPR. But travel on valid super visa is possible for immediate family members ( Parents) . What is the status of travelling validity for expired COPR I have no idea.

Similar thing happened to me. I am a May 2019 applicant. My file has been at CPC-M throughout the process for medicals, PCC, addition documents etc, which were all submitted and cleared in November and December. But this past week, I got an email that the file is being transferred to NDVO. I was surprised for the file to be transferred this late in the process. In my case, the Sponsor had been DM for a long time but the PA was still 'in process'. Strange indeed.
