PGP 2021 Round 2 (Sep 2021 batch)

[joyshreenathEE]

@erkaler I have one question:
Suppose I am eligible to apply for this sponsorship 3 years from now, can I express my interest next year, when they open the portals again or is it that I can express my interest only when I am eligible, that is after paying 3 years of taxes.

When you fill in the interest to sponsor form, they will ask if you fulfill the income requirement to sponsor. At that point, your previous 3 years income, usually note by the NOA line 15000 (or whatever the requirement by that time) has to meet the requirement.

So, do not express your interest unless you are eligible at that point.

Hi,

When is the deadline for submitting the application if you got the invitation letter? One part of the letter says "60 days from the date of this email" and another part specifies "Dec 6, 2021 before 11:59PM EST". So which one is the deadline?

Hi ,
My parents got invited to apply for pgp and I qualify but do I have to maintain my income untill they get pr ? If yes how much is the minimum cut off for 7 family members for 2021 income ? Please help.

@Meatplus.ca (As per my understanding) Yes but you may not be accessed again

Do I (the sponsor) have to continue to meet the income requirements during the processing of the application?

If new information indicates that you may no longer meet the income requirements, your income may be reassessed at any time during processing. Your income could also be reassessed if more than 12 months have passed between the dates since we received your application and when processing of the application begins.
You and your co-signer, if applicable, must meet the amounts outlined in the Income for Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship from the date on which IRCC receives your sponsorship application until the day your family members become permanent residents of Canada.

I further understand that due to impact of COVID19, IRCC will consider the income of 2020 instead of 2021 for the intake of PGP2021. I believe that implicitly that indicates that there will not be a cutoff list for 2021 and you should be okay for 2021.

I am not an expert though and this is based on my understanding so please get this verified.

Has anyone received AOR for PGP 2021 applications. I submitted my application on Nov/3/2021 and I just received a default ack that the application is received. No info as of now - whether the application is complete to the satisfaction of Immigration

You must always continue to meet LICO while your application is being processed. Impossible to say whether LICO will be increased but there is a decent chance it will go back to prepandemic levels.

No you must meet LICO for your family size every year. LICO levels are announced every year. They will likely be going up because they were reduced drastically due to covid and we are experiencing inflation. You will still need to support your parents through any troubles so it is important that you be able to show that you meet LICO which is very low already,

ghost email is just a lingo that all folks use here.
so the so called ghost email, states nothing, but it only states that you application has been updated etc.
on recpt of this email we can assume an officer is working on our application
