and one more thing - from http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/3999Etoc.asp

The certificate must have been issued no more than three months prior to submitting your application. If the original certificate is not in English or French, then you will need to submit both the certificate and the original copy of the translation prepared by an accredited translator.

i think it's valid for 12 months -
from Application for permanent residence instruction guide:

Police certificates are generally valid for 12 months from the date they are issued. However, if a final decision is not made on your application before the expiry of your police certificate, the visa office may request that you provide a new one.

Is a Canadian police certificate required for a parent who stays in Canada now on a visitor visa extension?

No

These documents are to be provided for each country other than Canada, in which you have lived for six consecutive months or longer since reaching the age of 18.

Thank you for your reply.

Even if the parent stayed in Canada for 2 years still not required?

i believe cic can get the police info from Canada by itself - that's why they are not asking for it... so all countries OTHER than Canada...

Hi All, I called CIC just now (they are open late!!!) and the call center agent confirmed that the sponsorship was approved on Feb 09, 2012.
Probably I may get a letter either this or next week. Agent couldn't tell where was my file forwarded, I mean to local visa office or CPC-O.

I guess it will be in the mail.
 
one person recieved the e-mail from CIC india his file was tranfer to ND in mid Jan 2012....

see letter copy below from CIC India.

Dear XYZ,

We have received your application for permanent residence in Canada in the Family class on date mm/dd/yyyy and have created a file with the file number indicated above.

Note: The application received date is in mm/dd/yyyy format. Please quote this file number inall future correspondence with our office.

Canada has a carefully managed and controlled immigration program that is committed to
maintaining a balance of 60% economic immigrants and 40% non-economic immigrants (familyclass, refugees, and those in need of protection). Amongst non-economic immigrants, priority isgiven to spouses/partners and dependent children.

We are currently processing other relative family class applications according to these timeframes, from the date the application is received in New Delhi:

Parents/Grandparents / All Other Relatives
Confirmation of receipt of 3 months / 12 months
First Review 9 months / 36 months
Interview 43 months / 44 months

As we proceed to review these cases, we will contact the applicants. In the meantime, we
recommend that clients check the website (india.gc.ca) for any changes. No purpose will be served by writing to us to enquire on case status until the current situation changes.

While we understand the wishes of sponsors and parents to be reunited, and that longer processing times can be frustrating for those seeking to bring family members to Canada, we hope this information will help explain the delays that some are experiencing when sponsoring parents, grandparents, and children to be adopted.

You should contact us only to provide IMPORTANT NEW INFORMATION such as a change in your mailing address, a change in your family status or other information relevant to your application. Although we will not acknowledge receipt of the new information, it will be noted on your file.

Sincerely,

Immigration Section

PS: THIS IS A VALID COMPUTER GENERATED LETTER AND DOES NOT REQUIRE ANY
SIGNATURE.


Looks like we have to wait more 3 to 4 yrs ........
