Parents & Grandparents Program(PGP) 2022

[jsn585]

Hello everyone,

I am confused regarding the family size that needs to be mentioned on Form 5768 for parents sponsorship.

Currently my family consist of 3 members ( Myself, wife and an infant). Myself and my wife both got the invitation to apply for for each of our parents.
Myself (Mom and Dad)
Wife (Mom and Dad).

We both are co-signing each others' applications, but really confused if the family size will be 7 or 5 on each application.

Please suggest.

Regards

Thanks for the reply.

Can anyone confirmed what form is required to put signature from Princple applicant. as IMM008 , 5669 , 5662 is already online?
Form 1344 is required to put signature , however its not allowing me to validate without typring PA and sponsor name,?
Should i type PA and sponsor name and then validate and print the form. and then put the hand signature on it. Please reply.?

Submitted IMM5476 (as an attachment) with hand-written signature today via email. As they requested, we also attached the missing document letter they sent and explanation letter as requested on the missing document letter. Will post if there is any progress.

Please Update when you get acknowledgment email of docs being received from cic

I guess they it will take a long time for them to acknowledge, unless there is still some missing information or documents or the one that we submitted is not per their requirements.

In my case none of the submitted forms have hand written signatures/dates but was asked to send only use of representative form. We will be sending in few days time, will update on it.

This is exactly i was thinking thr only form which we hand sign is financial evaluation , and that too does not have to be hand sign if you can do electronic sig .

Originally when you submitted the doc did you put a electronic sign ? or did you miss the sign on that page ? Why so they need hand sign if they have mentioned in the guide that electronic sig is ok .

When we initially send the application none of the forms were filled, signed or dated with pen (print --> hand-written --> scan), as in the guide it is explicitly mentioned not to do so unless it is advised. We did everything electronically. When it is not possible to signed electronically (like typing name on the sections 8 and 16 of IMM5768 ), we used adobe reader's fill&sign feature to type the names of sponsor and co-signer respectively. As far as our understanding from reading several FAQs, guide on IRCC website no where it is asked to to hand-written stuff on any form.

Having said that, we received communication to resend the IMM5476 only, no other forms, with hand-written signature. However, recently someone post that s/he was asked to send other forms too, not only IMM5476. So it is kind of random and depends on the officer who is working on our application.

Make sense , Do you know when we sign should we use Blank Ink or Blue ink lol , I prefer Black but just checking what other are using ? I have not received any thing back yet but since every one is getting things back i am assuming i will also get it sooner or later . so better to have it clarified from now :,/

I used black, I do not know if there is color requirements. However, you need to print twice and scan twice (one each by sponsor/representative and pa+dependent) and the font that is supported by the pdf is thin and black only, we find blue lead fading fonts of the info that we fill and completely fades the date we filled electronically.

Sorry i am little confused , Why do we need to submit 2 Rep form ? last time when i submitted with electronic sig i submitted only one , I put my E-signature on page 2 and then My mom and Dad's signature ( Electronic) on last page , I thought we need to submit only one form .

Yes only one form and scan print only once. but our case is bit different .. my MIL is here for few days and FIL is on different country.. we need to fill and print (x1), sign (by one parent and sponsor) , and scan (x1). Send this via email to other parent . then they print (x2) .. sign and scan (x2). If both the parents are at the same place then you just need to print and scan once.

We received email explicitly asking for hand-written signatures so we did not use the fill and sign feature

Hello a couple of urgent questions that I would like to request some help on:

1. In the sponsorship interest form for grandparents/parents, which was picked in the lottery, we dont recall which parents name we put.
Does it matter whether we now use either parents name for the actual application?

Thank you.
