Parents & Grandparents Program(PGP) 2024

Hi Everyone,

We have some weird situation happened in our PGP file. After submitting Police clearance, they assessed Financial Evaluation form and looks like mis-calculated total income for 2023 and counted around $71k (mini. needs $86000 for 2023). Based on minimum income requirement, IRCC official just sent letter saying "File has been withdrawn as you selected withdraw file if find ineligible and refund fees less $75". File withdrawn without any prior notice and IRCC also mentioned "no rights to appeal this decision" on letter. The 2023 income was total of $91K. I am 100% sure they have wrongly calculated 2023 income. Now I am wondering how to open the case with IRCC to re-open file and re-assess again.

Below are the exact words mentioned in letter.

"We have reviewed your application and regret to advise that you are not an eligible sponsor for the following
reason(s):
Pursuant to regulation 133(1)(j)(i), you do not meet the minimum necessary income requirement. Please refer
to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations below for details.
You indicated on your sponsorship application that you wish to withdraw your application if found ineligible. As
a result, your sponsorship application has been officially withdrawn and no further action will be taken. There is
no right to appeal this decision.

A refund of all paid fees minus the sponsorship fee of $75 has been requested on your behalf. If you paid by
credit card, it will be credited back to your credit card account. Otherwise, a cheque will be mailed to you at the
address indicated above in approximately six to eight weeks.
The Application for Permanent Residence for your relative(s) and all supporting documentation are hereby
returned to you."

Can Immigration Lawyer help with this case? What are the options to re-open the case?

Now is when I would talk to a good immigration lawyer and follow their advice - this is beyond the scope of this forum

Congratulations, i also got biometrics request couple days back and this morning received the sponsor eligibility letter. I am getting biometrics for my mom done today and then will submit request for PCC next week.
 
I received the letter in email saying I am eligible as a sponsor but one question, I have submitted everything except medical which I have appointment booked for today.so Just want to make sure this is standard email or do I need to resend all documents or only medical.


Thanks .

Hey when you received your temp file number earlier from IRCC agent.... is it the same as the original final number now? except the first letter...
 
Received message to submit a copy of new passport. As current is set to expire in December. However at time of application it had greater than 12 month validity. Is this common ?
