Hi Tabs,
I have submitted MPNP online application on 4th December, 2013, received file # on very next day and my supporter (a close friend) submitted SP2 on 12th December. He has supported his brother-in-law and his nephew also. Both of them received LOA and submitted application to CIO. After their submission of application to CIO (approximately 7 months later) he supported my application. Now my question is that, as he has supported two applicants 7 months ago, will it affect my application. Is there any chance my application might be rejected due to this reason. I have not heard anything from MPNP until today (3.5 months gone). Could you kindly shed some light on this issue.
I appreciate your valuable comments.
Thanks and regards,
Eusufzai
Usually, an applicant with an LOA should first land in Canada before his/her sponsor begins a new application. So, let me get this clarified, you applied for MPNP when your sponsor's relatives were approved an LOA? I guess in this case, this brother-in-law may have fallen under close relative. That's why MPNP allowed them to apply at the same time. I think in this case, it is close relative because married couple is considered as one sponsor. The brother in law is probably the brother of the wife of your sponsor.
It does not really matter in regards of them having sponsored them together, they are relatives. In your case, you are a friend. So, sponsoring you while they still haven't landed yet may cause problems in your application. You might be lucky and that MPNP will delay your application further and by the time they interview your sponsor (and maybe you too), your sponsor's relatives have landed.
However, this isn't really the case. Many applicants, sponsored by friends, were given an ineligible letter because their sponsor is under multiple sponsorship. This is why, applicants and sponsors should always be up to date with the latest immigration policy should one wants to undergo sponsorship or apply for MPNP. And know the regulations and requirements before submitting their applications.
You can either wait for their decision or withdraw. Either way, you can re-apply (also if given an ineligible letter) and perhaps ensure this time that your sponsor isn't sponsoring anyone else. Or, like I said earlier, maybe you might get lucky.
