That is the problem with the information currently available...throwing numbers with no explanation and people freak out when they see 95% for one and 70 or lower for another... The studies are done in extremely different settings which makes direct comparison extremely difficult (and trusting...

And to be on the safe side, I'd use years prior to Covid to try and project the income requirements. 2020 got significantly reduced to account for Covid. 2021 could well be reduced as well but to be safe use 2018 and 2019 to project. Also, just reminding for others, the parents sponsorship...

No. Any property you own when you become tax resident and sell later will be taxed if they trigger a gain. Prepare enough evidence of the fair market value of those properties at the time you become tax resident. Since those are overseas properties it would not qualify for your main residence...

Well that won't make a really significant difference though, the only difference once you are fully vaccinated is a recent negative Covid test. To be fair, I would say that it would be better to require such a test from all, just to have a better shot at avoiding new spread. Sure it adds a bit...

Only 2 people reporting receiving AOR so far.

In the meantime they've increased the fine for not going to those hotels from 3k to 5k, not really a sign that those hotels will soon disappear. I think some changes will come regarding fully vaccinated people but again, not sure when, but this shows that hotels as a whole are here to stay at...

Actually I believe we have now more people vaccinated with one dose (as a % of the population) than the UK (as of this week), also barely and they have a significant portion of fully vaccinated, with Israel the sole leader on that statistic with 62% of the population with one dose (and 59% with...

I'll join in on that as my family is in France, Switzerland, Spain and Italy. None of them are doing better than Canada. Canada per capita is actually doing extremely well but used a different strategy compared to the rest of the world, with the clear target of vaccinating as many people as...

As mentioned by Scylla, if you want to sponsor them, the only way is through the PGP program. There is income requirements for 3 years (3 years NOA) but this is a lottery system with probably around 10% chance once per year to be selected. If you are lucky and meet the requirements there should...

You can relax and stop worrying, let's put your mind at ease and others in similar situations: "If you have a super visa If you enter Canada on a super visa and the border services officer puts a stamp without a date in your passport, you can stay for 2 years." ALSO "If parents and...

The point is not that, your blank statement of "getting money from India as not taxable in Canada" is just wrong, so as mentioned if read literally, you are giving terrible advice by saying that. In your case, it was perhaps not taxable and in many situation, yes it will not be taxable. BUT if...

That is not at all what he said and there is no "reinstating PR due to education". If you really are no longer a PR, then yes she can sponsor you, you will want to look at Inland vs Outland and determine what would be the best course of action for you.

I'll just reinforce this. From your older posts, it looks like you had investments and property in Canada while you were away which tends to be considered as ties for Tax residence. It is impossible based on the little information provided to tell you if you were considered a tax resident of...

I'll add that your child cannot sponsor you until he moves and works in Canada for many years, and even then: He would need to meet income requirements for 3 years, then apply to the lottery system (if current method remains in place by then), get selected out of 100 thousands of applicants...

Just to reinforce this, if you can give us/answer: Exact dates (in and out of Canada) If there are some specific reasons why they did not stay in Canada When they would realistically be able to come to Canada How long they would plan to stay in Canada With those we can better help/recommend...

Maybe move it to the 2020 PGP thread (you are part of the 2020 PGP), this one is for the future round expected sometime later this year.

The permanent residency is meant for people who want to settle permanently in Canada but has been used as a convenience tool for people thinking of eventually, maybe, settling permanently in Canada. I don't assign blame here, immigration to Canada is not as easy as people would think or like and...

This is not the advice I would recommend, those kind of requests are why it is hard to reach anybody at IRCC. Having the temporary file number will do absolutely nothing to speed up the process, will not change when you will get AOR or when your parents will be able to land. All it does is clog...

Yes to both, no need to worry.

Je peux ecrire tout ca en Francais si besoin, mais au cas ou je vais ecrire ca en Anglais: Hi, I recommend you take a look at this link first: http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/fr/index.html and maybe post in the Quebec section of this forum or/and the temporary section...
