Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[Feb2004]

No, i have not provided my birth certificate. may be he is visiting me third time. but yes for extended family you must required a Approval letter from IRCC as i got it for my brother-in-law for travelling here. also do get a medical insurance for your parents if they are coming on visitor visa, sometime the office may ask for it.

Hi, your posts have been quite helpful. Just want to ask one more thing-Did your father or brother-in-law buy return tickets before travelling to Canada? Some people suggest it gives the border officials the time line and intentions of stay.

Return ticket is not necessary as no body is sure of the flights status due to Covid-19. Travel insurance is the only proof for the time of stay in case if the immigration officer ask.

Same with me also. The Online status shows a decision made on Feb 9 but the account still shows in progress. I tried to call CIC and get to automated status reply, even that is telling the BGV is in progress

Next will be PPR. It won't show in Gckey account. Now Gckey account will be updated once the application approved and Copr issued. There will be no activity in Gckey account in between. All the best!

@serious_cheese Will I get separate passport request email for my mother?

So disappointed, no progress at all, tired of calling IRCC as there is no update

Yep! Tired of standard 'your file is open and in progress' script.

What your GCMS notes says ?

Hello,

To get the GCMS notes, is this the right link? https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/transparency/access-information-privacy/requests-information-act.html

Also, do I need to fill in the consent for ATIP request? As the sponsor, am I considered to be requesting info on behalf of my parent (principal applicant)?

Thanks so much!

Hi All, questions for all who have their parents in Canada on visitor/super visa - Are visitors eligible for COVID vaccination? My mother has been residing with me in Canada on visitor visa status for the last nearly 8 years (through visa extensions, short trips to home country), she is above 80. Does she qualify for the first round of vaccination starting soon? Do we require health card for the jabs?

@serious_cheese Will I get separate passport request email for my mother?

it’s just 1 letter on the principal applicant name. You won’t be getting another letter on any other dependent (mother) name

Hello Everyone: My Dad's application "Decision made" was done in March, 2020. But today it got changed to "In process" again. Is this normal ? I was wondering that they will ask for the passport now, but change of status to "In process" is concerning.

That is normal. His medicals for sure must have expired. They will ask to redo medicals. Once they redo medicals they will issue PPR which is very quick.

My parents super visa is expiring this month (March) and I'm going to have to apply for extension since there is no news on their Pr application. Any one did this lately? Please advise on how to get this done. Thank you!

Anyone? Please help!

No health card required to book an appt, just proof of age and residency
