I truly believe CIC owes me nothing. My parents being granted PR isn't some right, its a privilege.
Sponsoring our parents is not a privilege, its our right

it’s an immigrants legal right and it’s covered under international immigration legal framework.

Please note right to family reunification if clearly addressed under Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other international covenants and treaties. That is the reason why they can’t stop but they can delay the process.

Don’t forget we were provided Immigration to this country based on Points Systems, which means our parents / and the country that has raised us as donated two solid working horses to this nation.

We'll just have to agree to disagree ...

I found no evidence of any "international immigration legal framework" that you speak of, nor do the Universal Declaration of Human Rights enshrine anything about reuniting older parents with adult children (displaced refugees, families split with due to war, adopted children etc. are a different story).

CIC *CAN* stop the reunification if you don't qualify, they wouldn't be able to if this was truly your universal right as an immigrant as you say. No one "donated two solid working horses to this nation", you made a conscious decision to move here because of lack of opportunities in your country of birth or perceived better life here in Canada.

Processing times were already up to 6 years back in 2011, you applied knowing full and well that this isn't a quick application. Not saying that waiting this long is ok, just saying you knew when you applied. Compare that to the 22+ years of delay that you're responsible for, for not applying when you got here in 1994.

Guys, we just have to trust the system. I think it depends on what kind of case manager you get. Some are very diligent and some are not.

Sponsoring ones parent is a right but the decision may/may not be in your favor.. just like fighting a traffic ticket is your right, but the judge will be making the final decision..

but when we talk about immigration (whether skilled individual, parents, spouse etc).. it is not a right but a privilege.. and if you think it is a right; how can they deny an application based on medical conditions or other reasons??

one should be thankful to Canada for giving thousands of individuals the opportunity to come here and let their families reunite.. unfortunately, some people start demanding like Canada owe them something..

Thats what it looks like. I also found that if you applied for only your either Mom/Dad it is faster than apply for both parents.
