Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

[highway52]

Ok I read your whole email carefully and then searched my emails to find out the documents that were asked from me. I had the following snippet in my email:



Documents which clearly establish the relationship between you and your sponsor as well as between you and your accompanying family members. Please provide a minimum of two (2) of the following: original birth certificates in original language issued by the Registrar of Births and Deaths, school documents such as Fifth, Middle, Matriculation or Senior Secondary school certificates and/or mark sheets from an education board, certified copy of your sponsor’s old Indian passport showing the sponsor’s name and the parents’ names, Indian marriage certificates showing parents’ names, and voter identification cards. At least one of the documents must have been issued before the date your sponsor became a permanent resident of Canada. Note: All documents not in English or French must be accompanied by a certified translation into English or French.

q Documents that clearly establish the relationship between you and your accompanying family members. If you have dependants under 22 years of age, please provide a minimum of two (2) of the following: original birth certificates in original language issued by the Registrar of Births and Deaths, school documents such as Fifth, Middle, Matriculation or Senior Secondary school certificates and/or mark sheets from an education board, certified copy of your dependant’s old Indian passport showing his/her name and the parents’ names. At least one of the documents must have been issued before the date your sponsor became a permanent resident of Canada. Note: All documents not in English or French must be accompanied by a certified translation into English or French.


Also you are saying that you emailed these documents. Did they ask you to email them or send the actual physical documents (certified copy of passport of course) to their office? I remember sending the documents physically because I was also asked to send PCC along with these documents.

Following was clearly mentioned in the email. I just emailed them the scanned copies of matriculation certificate and old Indian Passport which has my mother's name. When I submitted my application, I had provided a copy of my birth certificate which has my mother's name on it as well. They are now asking for second proof. For PCC, they had asked for originals back in Sep 2016 which I mailed to them.

Please quote our complete file number on your correspondence and send to the High Commission at the e-mail address or mailing address indicated below. Unless specifically requested, original documents are not required. You may submit scanned copies by e-mail.
PLEASE RETURN THIS FORM WITH THE REQUESTED DOCUMENTS.

Does anyone know how to contact Hong Kong office other than web message?
I need to call them. I'm kind of worried for not receiving medical exam request. I received document request and even landing fee request on March 8th by email but still no MEI form.

I also never received an email for medical request. I noticed other people from my batch getting emails for medical. So I decide to take my mother to do medicals and setup an appointment with a doctor. When I arrived there they checked my file on their system. They found a medical record number. CIC issue this when they are requesting medicals. I did my mother's medical and after few weeks. Mycic showed medical as passed. This was way back in Aug 2016.

Re: Please put your insights when application got refused because of missing mail

Hi Rossei and Forum Members,

I've been following you for a while and you guys have been doing a phenomenal job. Was looking for the expert to get help, thought you'd be helpful in my predicament.

I had applied for the PGP program for my parents before Jan 1st, 2014 and CIC received that on January 10, 2014. They started processing the application on March 18, 2016.
On April 14, 2016, I received their first e-mail saying that I met the requirements to sponsor my parents and they are going to forward the application to the CPC – Ottawa office for further processing.
Meanwhile, I was checking my application status now and then, and saying from ‘processing’ to ‘decision made’ (can’t remember the date exactly, may be June ’16).
I received their last mail on Jan 11, 17 which said that they are refusing my application because my parents did not respond to the RPRF issued on June 23rd 16 and Medical request issued on 21st June, 16.
Having discussed this with them, I realized that my parents did not receive any mail from CIC, nor were they able to check their email which was included in their application (which I checked for later on) and missing mail is not a common phenomenon in Bangladesh.
On my last mail, I was told I could go for an appeal to Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) within 30 days of notification, and I already did that. They acknowledged my notice of appeal on Jan 30th, 17 and waited for the hearing date. I haven’t appointed anyone (Attorney) on behalf of me yet, wondering if you could give me any advice on this matter.

I'm sorry to hear that.

If Ottawa really sent a request for medical and RPRF, it's most likely that they sent it via email. And you're saying that neither you nor your parents checked it for some time? If the request actually came in email and you guys overlooked it; then I recommend to hire a lawyer to deal with this. On the other hand, if it never came (mail or email); then you have a much stronger case.

In any way, I think you should be hopeful to straighten this out.

Thanks

CPC Ottawa has been very slow lately. I dont see much movement in the spreadsheet or are people not sending in their updates?
