Hi,
I am planning to apply Immigration to Canada, I am having a wife and 4kids, so at the moment i cant show proof of funds for my complete family, as per Immigration rules, So after reaching to canada and getting PR Can I apply for my family at that stage,
Any Suggestions!.


Regards,
:)
 
Yes, after PR you can apply for your family through family sponsorship. But you can take them now too by accompanying dependent family members.
 
The important thing is that you declare them on your application. They can always do their landing or follow you later once your PR got approved.
 
Inclidung them now if you can will be easier as opposed to later as may take sometime after you are PR to be able to complete sponsorship.
 
I think what he meant was he is applying PR together with his direct family(spouse and children) he was asking if after they arrive in canada together with his spouse and children can he applied or invite a family member e.g. Mother, father, sibling, etc to visit to canada. Did i get the question right, sir?
 
dear Aln_mj.
No.
Actually at the moment i cant afford financial to apply with my complete family,
So first i want to apply myself and for sure i will mention all my family details in process,
later on after my settlement in canada can I call them.

Oh sorry for that. I think you can apply for them later.
 
Even when you list them as non-accompanying, they all still have to take their medicals and your spouse also has to provide PCCs.

You need to show proof of funds to cover your entire family whether they are accompanying you to Canada or not. So if you don't have sufficient funds, then applying to immigrate isn't an option unless you can secure a job offer in Canada.

Good point. If you can save the money in a reasonable time frame, you are much better off saving up now and adding them to your application, as it is increasingly difficult to get a job offer in Canada.

Wish you all the best!
