Congratulations...please share your profile, when did you submit, how long did your application take, what documents did you submit and was it through the old or new portal?

Thanks everyone. I have PR and invited my parent. First application was July last year but.no update on it until Aril 2022. Normal Visiting Visa

New application: April 10 2022
New portal
Super Visa
Medicals passed.....April 25
Loooooooooong Silence.

Then there was ADR on her old application to be submitted by 8th of October
The ADR was one form Schedule 1 IMM5 something. I have forgotten.

Biometric validation letter and PPR....SEPT 29th.
PPR appeared on the new portal. BVL appeared on both new and old but the PPR she got was for Super Visa.
Documents submitted
Her passport
Medical insurance for 1 year...very compulsory for Super visa
POF was 100 percent from us, she is retired
Letter of invitation from my spouse and I stating we ll be responsible for her for her stay in Canada
Our Paystubs and Employment letter
Our Notice of Assessment for last year.
If you re PR and want to do super visa for your parent, ensure your family income meets the LICO for your family size plus the person you re inviting.

God will grant those still awaiting their PPR.

P.S : Is passport photograph no longer required when submitting passport. Biko, I remember we submitted passport photo or is it not needed for Visiting visa. Thanks a lot

Please, if you don't mind, how much POF did you submitted?

8000 CAD and her duration of stay was 6 months. We already mentioned she will be staying in our home, so açcomodation was like free. So obviously 8k for 6 months was more than enough. There is a place they usually ask how much applicant has for the trip.
However our combined statement of account was about 20k CAD. But I have seen people who had 10k balance and their parent got it.
Please if you re applying for normal visiting visa for your parents, don't fill in 6 months as duration of stay biko. It was because this was a super visa that was why the 6 months duration of stay didn't pose issues.

Please, I think with super visa, ones parents can stay in Canada as long as they want or is that not so?

Who else noticed that the processing time is now 132 days?

Hopefully, maybe most of us will get our positive decision this month by God's grace.
