Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

[cnonline]

not quite sure who maintains this spreadsheet, I just got it from this forum last year.
And that spreadsheet is for LAST YEAR.

Thanks. I just got to know that my confirmation number got selected. I am yet to apply for my parents.

You made a mistake by not sending it through proper courier ($300 fee) who will stand in line before the office opens for year 2014 and 2015. Not ure if 2016 was lottery year or not. Xpress post is not courier.

I'm so sick and frustrated with this process. We were just about ready to apply for my mom in 2011 and they locked the program for two years. Sent applications in 2014 when it reopened, then 2015 and 2016 as well - didn't get in time even though we paid Xpresspost everytime. Tried with the lottery system.

It's so hard telling my mom that we didn't get in, again. I'm losing hope.

Yeah, I know that now, how incredibly helpful of you. If I lived in ON, I would have done it myself but I live in AB.

Super visa (she can stay for 2 years at a time) - Some relief.

Thanks, she has been here on Super Visa before. She just can't build a life here - can't work - she's only 51. We've been telling her "no working here" until she's an immigrant (which is the proper and legal process) and it's hard on her. I know I'm a singular case, and there's many others, but it's incredibly frustrating hearing about brothers who both got selected for the same parents, ineligible applicants, etc.

Totally, I'll probably just stop hoping for now and if I get invited to sponsor, great. It's frustrating when you meet all the requirements and don't get selected and then there are others that don't meet said requirements and then get selected.

yeap, i was very optimistic with the income requirements as i almost clicked 6 figures in last 3 yrs. but as we know it is all being controlled by computer programs (as they say) so wasn't a great help.

Did you try punching in your confirmation # here? https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...ip/sponsor-parents-grandparents/selected.html
If your number shows in the list then you’re Selected even though you haven’t got the email yet as they’ll be sending emails over the next few days. I wish you a good luck here!

Thanks for checking, I put my number in to check as soon as that came out and I'm not on the list.

Best of luck to you too.

You know, I wish there was preference for those that haven't been selected in the last few lottery rounds. Like a weighted preference, if you haven't been selected but was eligible before, you get two entries or something like that.

Agree. Hope CIC learn something from previous experience.
