    Please help on parent sponsorship and dependent.

    I don't think you can sponsor dependents over 22 years so I'm not sure who you need to sponsor first. Maybe since the one is almost 22 years old you should include this one first, and then sponsor the other one when everyone's in Canada. You would need the full lico amount for yourself, your...

    Applying for student visa with study loan only

    As long as you have other proof that you will have money to support yourself. I don't think using a possible loan is a good proof that you have a guaranteed money support. How would CIC know that your loan is guaranteed? I can tell you that in Canada, not everyone gets a student loan. They...
