Family income requirement for previous sponsorship

[muralim]

Dear All,
My parents are in PGP 2019 and currently in the latter stages of processing (Medical passed).

This is my family income over the years:
2016-72k
2017-110k
2018-130k
2019-180k
2020-160k

So when I have sponsored my parents, it was a family size of 4 (myself, wife, father, mother) and I have enough income for 2016/17/18.

Fortunately, this year my wife has received the lottery to sponsor her parents and I will be a cosigner for that application. Also, we are
blessed with a baby in 2020. Hence, my current family size is 7 for sponsorship (myself, wife, father, mother, baby, father-in-law, mother-in-law).
Again, we are eligible based on the 2018/19/20 income for my wife's application.

Here is my question: As you can see, with the new sponsorship application (PGP2020), the income we have in 2016 to sponsor my parents (PGP2019) is not enough for a family size of 7. So how does it affect my application to sponsor my parents (PGP2019) though it is in the latter stages of processing?

Your advice is highly appreciated.

No impact.

Unless both your parents are arriving with significant funds I would be doing research to plan for the potential costs you will be responsible for If you are sponsoring 4 people. I wish the government was a bit more upfront about costs that come with PGP or just growing older since Canada has partial medical coverage. Things like dental care for 4 more people, paying for public longterm care is 1K+/person/month, all forms of mobility aids, hospital bed if needed, Incontinence products for multiple people at the same time, extra nursing or PSW hours since homecare often has too much demand and too small a budget to offer much.

No impact.

Thanks for your response. I believe the same too.

Thanks for your response. Yeah, they have enough funds on their own
