Thank you.

Are you a PR of Canada? Do you have sufficient Canadian income for your family size in the past 3 years (or 1 year in Quebec) to sponsor them?
Family size = you + spouse + dependent children (doesn't matter if they are in canada or not) + your parents (and if they have any additional dependents)

If you meet the LICO (plus 30% in rest of Canada, I am not sure about Quebec), then you can submit the interest to sponsor applicant and hoped to be picked by the lottery.

Then you cannot apply for your parents for PR (if you, yourself aren't a PR)

You can try asking this question in the visitor section of this forum if you want to find out visitor visa for your parents.

Hi

We have some question about sponsoring our parents back home. We are both citizens here. Our income for 2016 is $61400 for 2015 is $59900 and for 2014 $53,775. I’m not sure if we are qualify and i’m kinda worry. We already submitted our application.

What is your family size including your parents you plan to sponsor?
If it's just you and your spouse to sponsor your parents -> 4, you may be OK. If your family size is 5, then you are not qualify yet.
To apply for 2018, you need to meet minimal income for 2015, 2016 and 2017.

Did you applied in 2017?? No one has sent their applicant in for 2018 yet. We are still waiting for the lottery.

2017 2016 2015​

4 persons $59,426 $58,768 $57,642
5 persons $67,400 $66,654 $65,377
6 persons $76,015 $75,174 $73,733

For Sponsoring Parents PR, can any of your parent be the primary applicant. Can I make my mother the primary applicant who is a homemaker and make my Dad dependent in the application.
