You can include one as the primary and list the other parent as non-accompanying. However both parents must be mentioned in the application since they are married. The parent who isn't coming will still have to pass a medical and you will still need to have enough LICO to cover both of them.

Hi Scylla, Please help. We are sponsoring my husband's mom. His parents are separated (not living together) eversince he was a kid. But there is no divorce in the Philippines and his mom don't have a documentation to provide that they are separated. If she declares separated in the status, will it cause a problem in the application? Thanks.

What would be the basis of your lawsuit. You would have to show how the lottery somehow created an advantage for one population.
Can we have a separate thread for all these non-essential talks ? i mean i am really sorry for those who didnt got selected and people can choose to favour either lottery or FIFO. but come on man, its over, its done. these talks are seriously putting all the essential questions from every genuine applicant on back-burners because we are ranting the IRCC.

Would humbly request everyone to please concentrate on asking the relevant questions pertaining to PGP 2020 only

We all wish that conversations focused on the specific topics of threads, but as this is a public forum anyone can comment.

These discussions, while not applicable to you, might help others understand the system and the history of the system better, to make an informed decision and set expectations with their own applications.

The forum is never going to be squeaky clean, just scroll past anything that doesn't apply. Questions are still being answered.

I completely understand and agree with your thoughts, but your "informed decision making and setting expectations" are beyond the scope of this public forum. This is a place where people have asked questions relating to the application where they know someone would help them out.

There are other platforms to vent the anger out against someone where that matters. Twitter for example is one such good place where you can ask the authority directly and get your answers from. Your conversation is not helping but making others feel disturbed as they have done anything by getting selected in the lottery system.

Nothing is fair in this world and I fully sympathise with those who did not get selected either due to poor internet connect during FIFO or due to luck in the Lottery.

Please let others enjoy being on this road to happiness knowing that their parents will be with them sooner or later after crossing few hurdles which can be ironed out in this public forum.

I again request you to not take this in positive manner and leave all the burden behind you and wait for the next opportunity where 30,000 people will be selected. I really pray this time that your and all others be united with their parents. Amen.

hey guys,
I haven't received the invitation to sponsor...Does it mean we are out this year?
Yes, IRCC has claimed to send all the invites for the PGP 2020 this time.

Look out for the PGP 2021 lottery in coming months with 30K invites. This gives you more chance to get selected

It means you are out for the 2020 draw. There is going to be another draw sometime in 2021.

For the generic application for my husband’s mom, can she put legally separated in her status although there was no legal documents that she was indeed separated?They are in the Philippines and there is no divorce back home but they were separated more than 3 decades ago. Please help...

I'm not actually sponsoring my parents or grandparents, I'm here to help people with questions and be a part of discussions. You yourself just replied to someone who, by your own definition, does not meet the topic of this thread and has not been selected.

The main point being - you can't gatekeep a thread on a public forum. There's been so many PGP threads that stray from focusing solely on those that have been selected. Herding people to rant on Twitter simply serves your own needs and adding an "Amen" to the end of your post doesn't make it any nicer. Let people be and discuss what they want to discuss where they want to discuss it. As far as I'm concerned, all of these discussions are still on topic. I just don't understand how you are disturbed, you don't have to answer to or read every message on this thread.

Let me get straight to the questions you have asked :

for one you can consider me really lucky to get myself in 2014 under FSW, my parents in 2019 under FIFO and this time my parents-in-law in 2020 under the lottery system. That makes me a deserving applicant of writing and answering question based on the experience and exposure I have been through all these years.

I am not here to gatekeep or to micro-manage anybody here as I believe everyone here is a sane adult and knows what they are talking about. Your conversation on this forum seems like those age-old politicians whose only job is to rant the opposition no matter what they do. All these years I have been a member of many such forums and the only way I thought this works out is by getting and giving help to those who ask relevant questions.

I am repeating myself here again by saying that people here are not interested in what you and me think in terms of how government is screwing us and how we can give a f**k back to them. they are interested in listening to the answers which might make them happy at the end of the day.
enA
These off-the-topic discussions takes the important real estate away from the page and they have to scroll all the way down or to another page just to get to their answers.

I think it would be best we leave this here and let other people concentrate on what they expect from the title of the forum.

Everyone is busy in their lives and we are not teenagers to start a cyber-bully championship here.

With this I rest my case and wont be replying to any further discussions. Amen

Hello Guys,

I was just checking randomly my confirmation number on the CIC sponsor parents website for PGP 2020, and found out that "You are invited to apply", but I haven't got any email, which I have checked as well in Junk or Spam. What does that mean, do i need to call ircc and check?

Yes you must. You need the copy of the invitation email to apply for PR. Below is from the document check list

Parents and Grandparents Invitation to Apply Letter
Note: Include a copy of the invitation to apply letter with your confirmation number. Place this letter as the 1st page of your application package
(above the Document Checklist).
