Unfortunately, no. Your sister would have to be single/widowed with no other living relatives for you to sponsor her.

thanks for the reply first.
so can i sponsor only my sister and her baby ? if not her husband.
No, you cannot. Like I said, the only time you can sponsor your sister is if she is your only living relative. This includes children, spouses, parents, aunts, uncles or grandparents. She can try to come on her own (Foreign worker program) but I'm unsure how that process works.

Actually - family members can still be sponsored through some provincial nominee programs (if very specific requirements are met).

The entire family? I was under the impression it was just one person?

Yes - the entire family. Manitoba's program (for example) allows the qualifying applicant to include dependents (including spouse and children) in the application.

However the applicant obviously has to meet the program criteria first.

I know you pArker24 are trying to learn but it is not the first time you give wrong info to people and usually negative. You should not give any advice that you don t know so you don t dissapoint people with wrong information please!

If you have a problem with me, there's a PM function. Use that. I give advice as I read through here. I'm aware I usually give negative, but it usually is because no one else will. Sorry that I try to help and sometimes have to be negative. I'll try to be perfect just for you.... :-X

Last time I checked if people wanted to be absolutely be sure of the advice given they could hire representation,all the advice is free on the forum and who knows if the people requesting advice are actually giving out all the information needed to properly advise, I do not think parker is negative she is just honest and doesnt sugar coat things and i for one would rather receive the information straight up then be on a roller coaster ride. WHat qualifications are needed in order to give advice on the forum?Is being good at bashing and putting down others one of them? People are human and make mistakes, she learnt from it this is what a forum is for...provincial nominations has it's own requirements too that maybe will not be met my the member, who knows each case is different just like everyone is also.

That was uncalled for. People on this (and other forums) give advice based on their own knowledge and experiences. We are not all (legal) experts but try to help others based on the steps and mistakes we all have gone through. If you find any information that is misleading, you are free to point the correct information **without hurling such comments on fellow posters** Unfortunately, I didn't see this forthcoming from you on this thread.

yes true but I saw too many wrong information coming from parker 24... That s how I see it. Sometimes when people have too much free time start to answer thing that they shouldn t. SDorry that some of you don t like it but i see this way. Nothing personal with parker 24. But it will nicer if when you don t know something just don t coment whatever comes at the tip of ur tonghe...Again my personal thought...

Cuz he knows everything too right? funny how he thinks he's higher placed then the rest of us. We don't care what you think we take some and leave some on this forum like i said in my post if that person wants to be 1000% sure of the advice that he received...he should get legal advice. If you are willing to take advice on a free forum and follow it without doing your own research then you risk being disapointed and quite honestly you deserve what you get,I wouldnt post on a forum where i don't know anyone and use that for one of the biggest steps of my life.
