Can someone please comment on the time it takes to get PR after submitting a complete application? I got an invitation to apply for my parent. The current timeline says that CIC is working on 2014 applications. Does this timeline applicable to the new lottery system candidate as well?
 
Hi there.. I received an invitation 3 days before and now preparing documents for my parents.

I have a big confusion while filling application for my father.

He was charged with one serious criminal offense recently Oct 2017 and was arrested and detained in Jail for few days. it was a false charge, and now the case is over and he has proven no guilty by court.

In this scenario what I should be mentioning for below questions -
"application been detained, incarcerated or put in Jail".

"been convicted of , or are you currently charged with, on trial for , ..........or subject of any criminal proceeding in any country"

Please help me here.... Thank you.

He needs to answer "Yes" to having been detained and provide the legal documents from the court.

Thanks. He received a legal document from court when case was finished. Is that sufficient or any additional documents will be required?

Also will it impact his PR application even if he was proven no guilty?

You will have to wait and see if IRCC requests any further documents. It will possibly delay the app but will not cause a refusal.

Thank you very much for your response. I was very worried and needed expert advise. I hope everything will go well.
 
No complication. When you calculate LICO - you will both need to include yourself, your wife, her parents, your parents and any other dependents you have (e.g. children).

Hi , My family include wife and two kids, so if I want to apply for my parents, can you tell me the total number of persons in income table would be ?
and I should have maintained that amount for last 3 year right ?

5 people.

And yes - you must have made the minimum income for the past three years to qualify to sponsor your parents.

You + spouse + 2 kids + 2 parents = family size of 6.

You need to meet income for family size of 6 (around $75K) for past 3 years in Canada, or just past 1 year if resident of Quebec.
 
Hi everyone,

I had a problem in downloading the application form to sponsor my parents, the message I receive says that my Adobe reader is unable to show the document. Not up to date

I had updated the software, and tried to download the form from different computers with no result. Did anyone face a similar problem??

Please advise,

Thank you

Hey, I have been trying to call CIC lately, but no luck. For LICO, I am 1500$ short in 2015, but with significantly higher incomes in 2016 and 2017. I have been invited for Sponsorship from the draw, and want to sponsor both my parents. Anyway, can I still apply, or I absolutely have to meet all 3 years for LICO for all 4 family members?

If no then WHAT'S MY BEST BET NOW? APPLY ANYWAY, WITH AN EXPLANATION LETTER MAYBE?

You don't qualify and should not have submitted an interest form. Way to go on taking a spot away from someone who DOES qualify....

I have been invited to apply to sponsor my parents this year - yay! Currently working my way through the application but have some questions and can't get through to IRCC on the phone. Hopefully some of you nice folks might have some insight! Do i have my parents fill out their forms, and then mail those + supporting docs to me and then i send everything in together? Or do they mail in their stuff from the UK and i mail in mine separately from within Canada? Do supporting documents have to be certified copies? In the document checklist it just says "photocopy of". Also, does anyone know what the time lines are for application processing? Thanks in advance!
