Got a request letter in my GC Key a/c asking for current address, proof of relationship (aadhar/voter id card):

Proof of Relationship: As proof of relationship to your spouse please provide the Aadhaar and Voter’s ID card for yourself and your spouse.
Proof of Relationship: As proof of relationship to the principal applicant, please provide your voter ID card, Aadhaar card and old school records (Fifth class, Middle standard and Matriculation/secondary school certificate).

My parents are visiting me here in Canada, they don't have Voter Id with them and I never had voter Id created. Can I only send the Aadhaar cards for my parents and me or if Voder Id is required. Please help if anyone of you have any knowledge about it.
hi - I got the similar letter. I dont have voter id card, had Aadhar so submitted that along with my Secondary, Senior secondary certificates. I didn't had firth/middle standard certificates with me either so didn't submit those (they are locked somewhere in my hometown in Inida with no access from Canada)... I also included my parents marriage certificate (which was prepared recently) and had my name included under Children's section. I hope they would consider and take that as proof of relationship.

I got the same request for my parents. Fortunately, I was able to find their voter id card (made in 1995). Today I got AOR for upfront PCCs I submitted for my parents through webform on June 20th. I'll probably submit them again.

Hey Dude

I have seen people applied in December also are almost at the COPR phase. I have applied in November and nothing so far. Recently F12 trick is also not working, when I tried it says "no properties". It's frustrating seriously.

Hi Bhumik

I applied for my parents PR on the same day as you, Nov 21, 2021. I haven't received any update so far.
How did you linked to GC key? what information you need?

Hi Everyone,

Sharing a little update. Online application was submitted on last week of November and requisition for biometric came last week.

Thanks!
Same goes for my parents. Biometric letter came in yesterday. But, is it normal to receive biometric letter without receiving AOR? I Can't find any info about their application on the online portal where we can go in and check application status.

Hello Everyone,
I have applied for my parents sponsorship on Dec 6 2021. I still didn't receive AOR or any other email from them, When I go online to check status it only shows me Submitted under Status & Under Action its all Grey out ( cant check anything)

1) today I received an email containing biometric letter for my youngest sister who is a dependent of my parents. My parents already gave biometric when they applied for visitor visa previously. So there's are valid till 2024. My question is - is it normal to receive biometric letter without first receiving AOR?

2) on the biometric letter, there is application number starting with Fxxxx. I tried checking the status using this application #. No luck!

3) if we applied via PR PORTAL online, do we have to link the application in GC KEY?

Thank you in advance for taking the time out to review and reply to my post!

It is possible. I applied in october end and received biometric request yesterday. I was able to successfully link GCkey application in just one try with UCI and application number along with passport number.
I was advised by other member that File number listed on bio letter can be considered as AOR too.

Hello, I’m just wondering if there is anymore’s status still shows “returned”, and have not receive anything from IRCC since resend the documents. I resubmitted the documents to the email on April 19th, I did not receive anything yet. Getting worried.
Hi, I submitted the imm5406 on April 22nd and just yesterday received biometric letters. File status on PR Portal still shows returned. Nothing changed in F12 also. I was able to link successfully with GCKEY in a single try.
Hopefully you will hear something soon from IRCC. Good luck.

Hi All

For my mother, I received IMM 0535 today
It's Medical surveillance Undertaking.
There is no instruction what to do with it.
My mother had tuberculosis back in 1970s n she got cured. Still CIC did sputum test n results were clear.
Does anyone know if any action required from my side. I think my mom needs to need to carry when landing. We are just waiting PPR now.

This is what they ask as consent.

I understand that provincial/territorial health authorities in Canada may wish to monitor my health. I agree to them doing so.I understand my landing in canada is conditional upon my reporting to a provincial/territorial health clinic within 30 days of my admission to Canada as a permanent resident. I shall report any changes in residence for th with to Canada Immigration and the appropriate provincial/territorial authorities.

1)Did you apply using the PR PORTAL? Are the options greyed out for you? I can't view anything on the PR portal.

2) are you able to see updates on ECAS? I tried several times, no luck. I tried using details of primary applicant, myself as sponsor and yesterday using application # mentioned on my sisters bio letter. Still no luck!

2) When you linked GC key application, whose information should i using - the primary application (My dad) or the sponsor (Me)?
