Hello..in the past i sponsored both my parents and my husband was a co-signer(parents still waiting for their PR)
Now we are sponsoring my in laws and my husband is the sponsor and i am the co-signer
I am confused how to fill the financial evaluation form…
1. I put 2 for 3(A) that’s current undertaking
2. For previous undertakings should it be 3(B) number iii or iv?
3. Number 5 for spouse?

Please respond if someone knows

Like how ? We are 7 person including kids and dependents, do i need to put only adults means as sponser and person who being sponsored?
Thank you for your time

You need to include the sponsors in the number as well. I had difficulty with it for many months and was finally able to link my application this weekend. If you read the guide, it was stated that you need to include the sponsors to the total number.

 

[Preet K]

Thank you for your reply , yeah I already tried each and every number but no success

Received update today to redo medicals. Question, my parents are coming to Canada on August 1 with an ETA. Should we do the medicals in the Philippines or can we do it in Canada too? And if yes, how much will it cost us. Thanks.

Hi all,

Getting ready to submit my PGP 2024 application but have some questions and hoping members can help clarify:

For context, I am sponsoring my parents and my spouse is co-signing the application.

1. Total number of people/family size I have put as 4 (Me, Spouse, Father, Mother) - my 2 siblings I did not include as they don't meet the 'dependent' category - is this correct?

2. I am including the IMM5476 form (representative) as I will manage the application on their behalf - in the application guide it says separate 5476 forms must be completed by the sponsor (me) and the principal applicant which is confusing - can someone clarify? I thought only 1 form is fine?

3. In form IMM5768 (income requirement) - leave questions 9 and 10 blank? since there are no 'previous undertakings' for either myself or spouse. And this form cannot be validated, does it have to be electronically signed or by hand?

4. My father's details about his father (Date of death) - the exact date is not known since this was in the 1900's (only the year is known) - how to go about this? Can I just put the year and give explanation in letter of explanation? There is another section for form IMM5669 that the applicant needs to complete that is asking for the complete date of death if applicable and this is causing some confusion.

5. For form IMM5406 (Family information) - do all family members have to be listed under children (including myself?) or only dependent children? Additionally, how do I put the name in native language in the online form?

Would appreciate any guidance from members. thank you!
