Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019
- Thread starter Garry2008
- Start date
Mine was May 3 no ECAS update too and a lot are way ahead than yours. Wait for AOR Email.
Affidavit of Parentage signed by your parents is going to help for sure, no need to worry! Also i like the idea of providing other supporting documents such as passport, school passing certificates which state your parents name.
But you will still be required to provide the copy of your birth certificate, even if it doesn't carry your name. If the certificate is in a language other than English, get it translated too.
The only option is CANADA POST, the courier companies can't deliver to PO BOX address. Canada Post delivered my application in 1 day, it costs, but its worth!
Just print the invitation letter ITA received from IRCC and put it on top of the application package. Good luck!
The below example from last year might help you:
- Form IMM5768 Financial Evaluation for Parents Sponsorship
If you are working for the same company for last three year, Assuming you worked for a company XYZ, and assuming family size 5 with gross income 90k, I would fill the form year wise, see the below example:
- Here is another example for reporting income
Assuming that you are making $100,000 per annum since 2015 and you have worked for 4 different companies and your family size has been 5 since 2015, In my case, I filled the Employment History section of form in year-wise fashion, and I would suggest you to pick gross income mentioned in your NOAs.
For your employment from 2018-01-01 to present, you can total the salary as per your paychecks. Make sure you leave no gaps in between the dates.
- Here is another example for reporting income
I will recommend you to use the annual income mentioned in Notice of assessment (NOA) for past three years. I am not confident about putting individual incomes mentioned in individual T4s for individual employer. Basically you make two things clear in section 14. of this form IMM5768
1. where you worked in 2015, 2016, 2017 and beginning of 2018
2. how much you made in year 2015, 2016, 2017 and beginning of 2018
Assuming that in year 2017, you worked for two employers (Employer 2 and Employer 2.1) and made $100,000 in total in year 2017 (as per NOA), I would suggest you the below format to apply. I will also suggest you to put in brackets 'this was my second job/ employer' infront of employer/ company name.
Also as shown under columns for gross income in 2017, draw a big bracket with the help of a scale, to show that you are showing a combined income
In 2018 I placed it right after the ITA letter, and i had no issues and i did the same for 2019.
I recommend writing one explanation letter only, explain all the situation/ scenarios in it. Good Luck!
