Hello friends, I received passport submission request on Friday.
Vfs is the only way? Do they pick up and drop off from your door? We r located in Amritsar and centre I believe is in jalandhar?
How long to get the visa ? Is that an entry visa to Canada or pr visa?
Next step to book ticket? Or is there anything else ?

If your parents are already in Canada and had medical for visit visa within 5yrs they will not need medical. Please see below link.

Yes you need to book and passport submission app. Online then go vfs jalandhar and submit passport
For us it took total 23 days and it will come with immigratant visa with copr and they have to land in canada before that expiry
Once you know the expiry you can book the tickets accordingly

To members who had got Pr approvals or facing such like situation ------
My mother is government employee and father already retired ,
I have some questions -
At which stage, my parents will be assumed to be permanent resident of Canada ? First ,when they get pr approval ? or second when they actually land in Canada ?
This I am asking because parents can not get PR during their jobs as per government rules .
And secondly, if they receive final approval or passport requests , can they deliberately delay landing process in Canada for some time say 3-4 months time ? ie on which basis ircc give deadline to land in Canada ? So that my mother could plan to apply for her premature retirement .

Hello Rsing,
May I ask how long is the visa last for from the day you got your stamp? Since We're in the final step and want to plant a head with the timeline.
Thank you!
The expiry date on visa is linked with medical date.
Means the visa will expire 1 year after the medical is given.
For example you gave medical on 20th Dec 2022 so medical is valid till 20th Dec 2023. Now if you get PPR then you will have to land before 20th Dec 2023.
