Hello friends, can some body provide me with the following information?
1. Does the act of getting subsidized housing affect 'sponsoring parents'?
2. Also please tell me if the government financial assistance was taken 12 months before, can I sponsor my parents now?
3. Does getting a financial assistance also makes me ineligible for super visa?
anticipated thanks for your help.
sponsoring parents for pr has been frozen till 2014.
as per the faq section of super visa
"Who is eligible for a Parent and Grandparent Super Visa? What do they need to do to qualify for it?
Parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens or permanent residents who have been found admissible to Canada and meet some other conditions are eligible for the Super Visa.
Visa officers consider several factors before deciding if the person is admissible. This means they are a genuine visitor to Canada who will leave by choice at the end of their visit. Among the things that could be considered are:
the person’s ties to the home country,
the purpose of the visit,
the person’s family and financial situation,
the overall economic and political stability of the home country, and
invitations from Canadian hosts.
In addition to being found admissible to Canada, the parent/grandparent must also:
provide a written commitment of financial support from their child or grandchild in Canada who meets a minimum income threshold,
prove that they have bought Canadian medical insurance for at least one year to cover the period of time that they will be in Canada, and
complete an Immigration Medical Examination (IME).
"
if financial assistance was taken 12 months before and you can show enough funds to support parents it should not affect the super visa application.
