Hi all,

Iam new to this forum applied for fsw14, mean while i would like to know the process for parents sponsership.
How long this process takes from India? will it take more than 1 year? I could see some of the forum members applies way back 2007 etc, i was just afraid!!.. Please provide the info.

CIC has already received the maximum number (5000) of applications for this year and thus is not accepting any new applications. You can apply next year. More information is available on the page available at link below:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/parents.asp

New applications under current rules take less time to process but have tougher conditions and requirements for sponsorship.

If you have never worked in Canada and will be coming to Canada for the first time once you get PR - then you will be waiting a very long time before your parents will be able to come to Canada as PRs. First you'll have to complete at least three years of work in Canada to meet the low income to sponsor your parents. Then once you file the application, you'll most likely have at least a three year wait (possibly more).

Hi Memebers,
I have a question in regards to parental sponsorship. I applied in April 2010. Sponsorship was approved and file was transferred to New Delhi. Now Delhi office is asking for all the updated forms that were sent to mississauga and all the supporting documents to be sent again. They also requested medical and mentioned that I will be receiving medical instructions in separate email, which I never received. My question is if it is normal for them to ask for all the forms again even when the forms were sent to Mississauga office before the transfer to New Delhi? Also what should I do about not receiving the instructions for medical tests that they said they will send to me in a separate email? They asked for all the forms, police clearance and medical to be submitted in 60 days. Thank you in advance. please find the attached and comment:

In order to assess this application, updated copies of the items listed below are requested. Please note that if we do not receive the items listed below within 60 days of the date on this letter, this application may be refused.
• Application form (IMM008) for yourself
• A Schedule A form for you and one for each dependant over the age of 18, whether accompanying or not. Personal History information and Addresses must be entered from the age of 18 to date. Incomplete information will delay the processing of your application.
• An Additional Family Information form (IMM5406) for you and one for each dependant, whether accompanying or not. The correct forms are all available online at
• The documents listed in the attached Document Checklist for Family Class – Parents & Grandparents
• You and your family members who are included in this application must undergo complete medical examinations. You will receive a separate e-mail with instructions for medical examination for you and your dependants, whether accompanying or not. The issuance of medical instructions does not constitute final acceptance of your application.
Once you have completed your medical examination, submit your forms and items listed above, as a SINGLE package to our office at the following address:
Immigration Section

• If any other documents have been requested you must also comply with that request. Failure to comply with the request may result in the refusal of your application.
• You must inform our office of any change in your mailing address, a change in your marital and/or family status of yourself or your dependants, or other information relevant to your application.

[starzibal]

I sent email via their general enquiry link available at London consulate website.

Was the reply generic or your case specific and how long did it take to get their response?
I am not sure why they didn't mentioned 2008 does that mean, ISB is working on 2008 case and London is on 2006/07?

thanks

Exactly same email we have received yesterday from New Delhi as well, Not a word different so I think its generic letter. We haven't received medical request email as well which they are saying we will be getting separately. Applied March 2010 and transfer to New delhi in September 2014.

Please do let me know if you get any other info from them, and I will let you know if I get anything. We are exactly at same timeline.
