Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2021

[ashishm999]

I'm in the same boat. I got the lottery in Oct/2021 and I submitted my application on Nov/13/2021. My parents are planning to make a trip to Canada for summer 2022 on visitor visa. Wondering if I get an invite for (1) Medical (2) PCC while my parents are in Canada, can both Medical + PCC be done in Canada ? OR, should they have to return to India and complete the process ???

I believe they can do medical as well as PCC (via Indian consulate/BLS Canada) from Canada itself.

I'm not sure why linking to GCKey is required ? Say I created a login at IRCC website ( https://prson-srpel.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/login ) with email id "foo@gmail.com" and submitted my PGP application online using id "foo@gmail.com". I don't understand when folks talk about GCKey. Why can't one login ( https://prson-srpel.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/login ) with foo@gmail.com and check the status ? Why do you require GCKey. Am I missing something here ?

I have the same question. why does it matter to link with the GCKey? what's the benefit?

Do you know of any OR read anywhere in the forums, where an applicant did initiate Medical and PCC in Canada itself and what his/her experiences wer ?

Do you know of any sponsor for PGP OR read anywhere in the forums (if yes, link please), where an applicant did initiate Medical and PCC in Canada itself for one's parents on a visitor visa to Canada and what his/her experiences were?

Do you know whats the process of getting a PCC from India? My parents are planning to come to Canada for atleast 6 months...so wondering if it can be done online?

PCC can be obtained from any Passport Seva Kendra. Fees is 500 and you need an appointment. It is given the same day when you go to the office the day of your appointment. One Photo Id and I address proof required.

Congrats, it may mean they have reviewed your updates. Hopefully you should be able to link the application online soon. I am still waiting for the ghost email or Biometrics request. I resubmitted on Dec 14 so I guess its a game of patience. Fingers crossed
