Can I considered my MOTHER as my DEPENDENT????

[ROCIO LIVELY]

Good afternoon:
I am doing my papers for send to immigration Canada, as spouse. I have a question. In some forms appears a question about dependent. In this paper says I need mention if I have dependent because this will help in the future for carry my dependent.
1. My question is...I don't have children, but I can consider to my mom?
2. This benefit will help to my mom that she can receive a pension the discount my salary when I get a job there?


Thank very much, really

No, you cannot include your mother as your dependent on your PR application. You can sponsor her AFTER you become a PR, but it will be a lengthy process and you will need to meet the minimum income requirements that span over 3 years (I believe).
