I am sponsoring a member of my family and cannot see the status of my application. Why?
You may have entered the wrong information in
- the application status tracker, if you applied to sponsor a spouse, partner or dependent children
- the Client Application Status (CAS) tool, if you applied to sponsor any other family members
When trying to find out about a sponsorship application, make sure that all the fields contain information about the sponsor, such as their
- identification number (such as the client number or receipt number)
- name
- date of birth and
- place of birth
To see the status of the sponsored person’s application for permanent residence, you must use the sponsored person’s information, such as their
- identification number (such as the client number or receipt number)
- name
- date of birth and
- place of birth
