No - he doesn't qualify. You cannot sponsor him as a dependent - he will have to qualify to immigrate on this own through an economic immigration stream like Express Entry.

Thank you..but I read it in age and level dependency..
22 years of age and older have depended substantially on the financial support of the parent since before the age 22 and be unable to support themselves financially due to a physical or mental condition. It is financial dependecy that must have been ongoing since before the age 22. It is not necessary for physical or mental condition to have existed before the age of 22.
Dependent children who do not have a physical or mental condition must remain unmarried and not in common-law relationship for the duration of processing., up til the point of becoming a pr

Hope anyone has other advise or same situation..thank you..really appreciate

You indicated in your first post that your dependent has no physical or mental condition. If that's the case, he doesn't meet the requirements to be classified as a dependent - even if you are supporting him.

Your reading of this is incorrect.

"...depended substantially on the financial support of the parent since before the age 22 AND be unable to support themselves financially due to a physical or mental condition."

You are only able to sponsor a child over 22 due to the fact that they are physically or mentally incapable of caring for themselves, and are therefore dependent upon the care of the parent. Unless you have a child who is unable to provide self care due to significant disability, then they must apply for themselves under a different stream. Simply being the financial support for your child over the age of 22 is not a exception. An able-bodied individual is expected to provide for their own care and must qualify for PR under their own credentials.
