First you need 3 years of tax returns/NOA as PR meeting LICO for the total number of people in your family. You need to meet LICO for every year. Then you enter a lottery and hope your father's application is drawn. The program is oversubscribed every year and unfortunately some people are never selected. Attached is the process if you are selected in the lottery.Hello All,

Thanks for responding. So my situation is I got my PR in June 2021 prior to that I was on a Work Permit since June 2019 so I have my 2 years of Tax returns. I never submitted any expression of Interest for PGP as I was not eligible so I wanted to know if I can apply somewhere so that I get a chance to be picked in the lottery. All the links posted are for those who already applied and have not been picked.I am replying to @nirajparihar who just became PR and wanted information.

hi scylla ...."This year's lottery is only open to those who applied last year and weren't picked." .... does this mean no new applications will be accepted .... last year our application not picked up - only 10K vacancies were there now added 30K - means last years quota would be effective 40K if no new application is accepted - can anyone tell me how many total applications were received last year - thanksThis year's lottery is only open to those who applied last year and weren't picked.
