@serious_cheese today I got a call from IRCC to confirm that my mom is in Canada and they asked a few questions about what my husband and I do for work, etc. And the agent confirmed that my mom is now a PR as of today. COPR was received in email and in mycic account. Thank you so much for all your help on this forum. I wish everyone a speedy process to be reunited with your parents and grandparents.
congratulations!

As I can see in the worksheet that your medical expired October 20, 2020, but you got DM2 on October 31, Did they ask you for remedical?

Hello, I have been trying to get through the phone with IRCC for the past three days but encountering phone message saying all agents are busy and will try again later. Would anyone mind providing the quick way of reaching the phone agents again?
you can try to call them in the morning when they open. I remember it is 8:00 EST. It should be very quick to connect to an agent.

I am in the same boat.
App Date - May 27,2019
Medical was passed in Dec 02, 2019
Biometric - Nov 27,2019
March 09,2019 - Decision Made
March 11,2019 - Pre Arrival letter
Parents are in India and doesn't have visitor or supervisa.

Nothing after that, I bugged my local mp a lot so seems like CPC - Mississauga got offended. they changed PR application status from Decision made to In Progress on Nov 03rd.

However, they rereviewed the medical and now my new medical passed date is Nov 03,2020

ECAS Status - In Progress

and local mp received an email from IRCC that NDVO doesn't have capacity to print landing document which is ridiculous.
Great now they have another excuse. Capacity issues!:rolleyes:

I tried booking the biometric appointment with the vfs office in India.To book the appointment, it’s asking for the vfs location where you want to book, number of applicants and separate BIL Number for each applicant. The letter from ircc does not have a bl number. It only have Uci, application and ircc number. I tried uci and application unsuccessfully. I was able to get past with application number, but since my dad and mom have the same application, it says the bil number cannot be the same.
i proceeded with booking my mom biometric,but they didn’t give ask me to book a time or date.
now I am not able to book my dad’s appointment because it says the bil number have a request already created.
I am really lost and know how to proceed. Any one have any positive experience with vfs India?
I believe, they will send another biometric instruction letter and I am guessing it will have Bill No. per applicant.
Thanks,
PS

Just got another update. I am thankful that VAC is slowly resuming services, but if they can take Biometrics, why can't they resume the Passport submissions service same time. :confused:
