To be honest, I prefer lottery than FIFO (this my own opinion based on experience we have with both the system). Moreover, this time I was very hopeful, more than before because of 10K+40K, that my wife would get invitation. With that high expectations, we even have everything ready from documents, forms and even online portal ready. Positive thing is we have not told our F&MIL that we have submitted EOI, based on my previous experience that it would create some kind of expectation to them. and results in only disappointment to them.

Hello All,
Request you all to kindly share your advise. We are all siblings here with PR status and have been trying the sponsorship for our single parent(mother) since 2019. She is on Super visa and staying with us. We have been trying since three years but not received the invitation. She cannot stay alone in back home. Kindly help advise and guide in our case.
Thank you

Agree. We asked if she would consider moving in the future. And once she agreed, we didn't tell her about the actual application until we got picked in the lottery.
Think there needs to be more clarification that parent sponsorship is not guaranteed so people can make a choice about whether immigration to Canada is what they want if they can’t bring their parents. Canada has an ageing population and that is one of the reason Canada welcomes a large number of immigrants. It isn’t a benevolent program both parties benefit but guaranteeing that every pone can sponsor their parent will just add to the ageing population and lack of healthcare resources. There is a reason that parent sponsorship with full access to services (except welfare) is not offered by most countries.
They had make the announcement before the election. Had there not been an election they likely would have delayed until the next year. They didn’t even do another EOI so they could do the draw with minimal work and as fast as possible.3 months, and 2020 they dragged till year end
Exactly, we did the same. They do visit us regularly, though they never said explicitly to us, we understand their sentiments they would like to spend their entire 65+ yrs life with their child (or more with kids), wherever its possible. They are in their mid to late 50’s and we have promised we would do anything, to be with them when they are at that age. I and my partner learned how important it is to be with parents, when my mom passed away without us being around. Moreover, the entire covid has made us realized we are being bit selfish (thinking about our careers and kids only but not them)
On the positive note, I am extremely happy with IRCC/govt, finally they introduced online portal for PGP. With my experience of applying student visa, trv, super visa, off-campus and post-graduate work permit, PR via CEC (rejected)&FSW, spouse sponsorship, citizenship, and many other that I might have forgot; the online portal for PGP application is by far the most simplest and straight forward. If you have all info (names, dates, etc) and documents ready it can be complete in a single day. Literally it took me Sunday afternoon to finished everything (though we are not lucky to submit it)
I Do not agree.
When you can bring(let the migrate) smart Brains, young brains, rich brains, wealthy brains to Canada, Why not let their Emotional support come with it. Its a part and parcel of life. Cant have Roses without thorns.
If IRCC keep doing like this regarding Parents' Migration, Canada gonna have a Brain Drain.
Hello Guys,
This is getting worse now, We have to unite and convince IRCC to clear the pool and accept all the applicants who meet income requirements.
whats your thought?

Your point is valid if we were to assume that Canada (Canadian govt) brought us here. In fact, my take on this is.. people like me (an economic immigrant) choose by our consensus to immigrate to Canada (amongst many countries). For me acceptance of my desire to immigrate here is the package that I received, family sponsorship is a value added package, which is definitely not the obligation of the govt.
Again, accept the reality. Govt (any political party) has no interest to look after what makes us happy, specially people like us who wish to bring our parents and grandparents are not that much for them to take us seriously as their vote bank.
