Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2021

[subramani_vs]

Hi, I'm new to this forum. I've got my PR application approved and planning to land in this April. Can anyone please explain when I will become eligible to sponsor my parents? From what I understood from the details present in their official website, I need to show 3 years of continuous income proof. Does this still hold true or are there any changes that have been made for this year? Is there any other program that allows us to sponsor so that I need not wait for these many years?

Hi All, I just logged into the application portal and it is now showing the program and category which used to be blank before. Are any of you seeing the same?

You need to file Canada taxes for three years with the minimum income.

Yes, that's right. You'll need to wait until you have worked in Canada for three years and meet the minimum income requirement. Then you'll be able to enter the lottery and hope you are selected.

There's no other program through which you can sponsor them. An alternative would be for them to qualify for PR on their own (without your help) through a program like Express Entry or PNP.

They can certainly also apply to visit you (TRV or super visa) while you wait to qualify to sponsor them and wait to be selected.

if you're a Canadian citizen living outside Canada, you must show that you plan to live in Canada when your sponsored relative becomes a permanent resident. You can't sponsor someone if you're a permanent resident living outside of Canada . I added this to the conversation to reinforce the idea that a permanent resident should be inside the country and in sequence have a three years minimum acceptable income any other exceptions would be related to the status of a Citizen and no one else .

I got email yesterday regarding application status update. When I logged into the portal application was returned due to missing applicant name on declaration form. I typed the name and submit the application again. Declaration form was already filled during the initial application not sure why it comes back. Does anybody experience the same?
