It's not since they were 18. It's either since they were 18 or the past 10 years, whatever comes sooner, it says on the form.

I can't say I'm sure, but all your need is whatever legal document that prooves your mother's relationship with the sponsor. The sponsor's birth certificate, for example... BTW: I'm sorry, I gave incorrect information. Your mother has to list her dependants on IMM008. If she has more than five...

Hello! Your mother has to fill out ALL the forms, except for IMM008DEP. You and your sister must fill out all the forms, except for IMM008 (only your mom fills out IMM008, and she needs to add your and your sister as dependants on it).

Hello! 1) Yes, if your mother is the principal applicant, she needs to fill out and sign all the forms. If she has any dependants on the application (spouse, son, daughter...) they need to fill them out too, except for IMM008, they need to fill IMM008DEP, but all the other ones as well...

Everyone hates Kenney, but I think he's up to doing a very good job. Of course, you have to crack some eggs to make an omelete, but in the long run, I think Canada needs the changes he's making.

Yes, that I know, I read in the guide. :) Thanks!

Hi mesahill! Congrats on the letter. My brother (my mother and my sponsor) also got it. So to your questions: 1) After they get all your family's information (your dad, in your case), they will ask you to update yours, then you'll be able to tell them about your daughter, job change and...

Thank you very much for your help and attention :)

I really don't see it. But maybe I'm just tired of the bullshit I have quietly swallow everyday here ;/ Can't wait to go back to Canada, my home is there, not here. :) Btw, I see you applied for your wife, best of luck to both of you!

I definetely get the feeling that Canada leans more towards Indians and Chineses, but that's just a feeling and I may be way off here. My brother, a Brazilian like me, got his PR card in 6 months. He applied in land and was (still is) married to a Canadian. So I'm not sure about this Latin...

Oh, now I see! You're way ahead in the process! I don't think you should worry. They probably will finish it soon. :)

I understand, Baloo. And I agree with the government if you ask me... Many of the Parents and Grandparents that wish to immigrate to Canada are retired and won't be working for long, even if they ever do, in Canada. But many Parents are still young and willing to work and contribute to the...

Oh, I see what you mean now. But why did they do it so early? They only ask for medicals after the sponsor is approved and even they are "pre-approved", right? Well, in any case, let's hope for the best, since they changed the entire timeline for the P&GP Sponsorship, there's no way to know how...

Yes, it will. You need to meet the LICO, if not, you won't be approved ;/ But don't worry, who knows when they will ask for your to update your information in order to be approved? Maybe then you will be earning more, and even if your last income tax is low, you can submit pay stubs and a...

They didn't eliminate the Parent Sponsorship program, they just put a pause on it so they can work on the backlog. If you think about it, usually the wait for them to even START working on the process is 4 years, maybe if they work hard in this 2 year pause with the older sponsorships, when they...

No idea, dhillon22, they started this "new way of doing things", there's nothing we can compare to. Before you would need to be approved as a sponsor before they even considered asking your parents for additional information. So now they ask for their additional information before you're even...

The medicals are valid for a year, are they not?

Your parents can download the form themselves and fill out themselves. Print and send to you by mail. That's what I'm doing here. That way I can be as thorough as possible.

Hm, I don't think they would flag that, but then again I never went through it. Btw, my brother also got the letter, but in our list of forms to fill we have IMM5669, not IMM5669E. I wonder...
