Is just u, ur spouse and children that are eligble to go now later ur parent may come on visit visa

Your parents cannot be included in the FSW application.

You can sponsor your parents once you have arrived in Canada as a permanent resident and are making sufficient money to qualify to sponsor them. Be advised that applications to sponsor parents are currently taking 5+ years to be approved and this processing time is expected to increase in the coming years.

At first they won't be included but they can come to your place as in Visit/ Tourist Visa after.

This i'm saying as seeing my one friend's state of affairs.

Family members

Family members include a spouse, a common-law partner, dependent children, and dependent child of a dependent child:

Term

Definition

Spouse

Refers to either of the two persons ( opposite or the same sex) in a legally-recognized marriage.

A common-law partner

Refers to a person who is living in a conjugal relationship with another person (opposite or same sex), and has done so continuously for a period of at least one year. A conjugal relationship exists when there is a significant degree of commitment between two people. Common-law partners must attach any documents that show they are in a committed and genuine relationship, for example evidence that they share the same home, that they support each other financially and emotionally, that they have had children together, or that they present themselves in public as a couple.

Common-law partners who are unable to live together or appear in public together because of legal or cultural restrictions in their home country may still qualify and should be included on the application. Common-law partners that meet the conditions outlined above but who have been separated for reasons beyond their control (for example, civil war or armed conflict) may qualify and should be included on the application.

Dependent children

Refers to the children of the principal applicant or of the principal applicant’s spouse or common-law partner.

They must:

be under the age of 22 and not have a spouse or common-law partner; or,

depend substantially on the financial support of a parent and have been continuously enrolled and in attendance as full-time students in a post-secondary institution accredited by the relevant government authority since before the age of 22 (or since marrying or entering into a common-law relationship, if this happened before the age of 22); or,

depend substantially on the financial support of a parent since before the age of 22 and be unable to provide for themselves due to a medical condition.

Dependent child of a dependent child

Refers to children of dependent children of the principal applicant or those of his or her spouse or common-law partner.

Dear Friends, ;D

I have applied under FSW post june 2010, my question is:

As I'm the main applicant and my husband is coming along with me on dependent / spouse status.

After getting permanent residency of canada, can my husband sponser his parent's, brother & sister directly or not in future?

Or because I'm the main applicant and through which we both got the Canadain PR, only i have the right to decide to sponser anyone?

PLEASE REPLY !! ITS VERY URGENT!! :-\ :'( :-\ :'(

THANKS

TINA

Yes - your husband can sponsor his parent once he has PR status and meets sponsorship requirements (to sponsor parents, you need to make sufficient income and meet the low income cut off requirements). His sister/brother can be included in this application if they qualify as dependents.

Dear Scylla,

Thanks for clearing doubt....+1 for you

Can you also clarify one more thing....what do you mean by low income cut off requirement??? It is necessary that we both get employed in canadian market and then sponser our parents because when we land canada we are bringing CAD $100k or more, on the basis of this money can't we sponser our parents and they can also come soon?? :

You and/or your spouse need to be making a minimum amount of money in income (i.e. through a job) to sponsor your parents once you land in Canada. Having money in the bank will not allow you to sponsor your parents. You need a job that pays you enough to meet the LICO requirements.

The LICO requirements are in table 3 below:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/English/information/applications/guides/5196E10.asp

Here's how you use the table: If there are two people in your family now (i.e. you and your spouse) and you want to sponsor your two parents - then you need to have LICO to support four people. LICO for four people is $41,307. If you have a child, then you would need to show LICO for five people which is $46,850.

I hope this helps.
