Yeah, military background check is the most long one. It can last 2 years. I know some PGP 2019 still not done yet. For the security check, it’s no idea. What can do, it’s only to wait.
Hi There

Does it apply to Retired State police as well? or just Military?

Hello,

Did IRCC ask you to do the medical in March? Since we submitted the PR application, my mother has been on a visitor visa. We are extending the visitor visa as and one required. The timelines are in my signature. Can you please share your timelines?

Yes we got their medical for visa extension done in March then they were again asked for medical for PR in June. Is the timeline that you shared for visitor’s visa?

Hello Friends,
I have received another request today in my CIC account which was the additional request letter dated last year aug 2022 (same letter same date police certificate,
address change and relationship documents which was provided already before due date). Is it system glitch? Second medical request was received (because of one year) last week as well.
It seems like file is moving in opposite direction.

I am on a Work Permit in Toronto with a full-time job (Valid until 2026). Can I sponsor my parents without showing any funds in their account ?? I can show that I have funds and I can take care of them. Is it doable for a visitor visa ?
Any suggestion would be really helpful.
