Sent mail by 9 am Purolator service today.

The actual address is:
Case Processing Centre – Mississauga PGP
Parents and grandparents sponsorship
2 Robert Speck Parkway, Suite 300
Mississauga, ON
L4Z 1H8

They printed the label as:
MISSISSAUGA PGP SPONSORSHIP
CASE PROCESSING CENTRE
2 Robert Speck Parkway, Suite 300
Mississauga, ON
L4Z 1H8


I hope the modified address does not cause any trouble because the actual delivery address is correct, it's just the title they have flipped.
postcode and building number and suite are the same so should be fine.

this is too long to fit into their shipping label, I had to cut down some words too.
Should be fine.

It won't be true until it's posted on the CIC web site. And so far it hasn't.

The web site you've quoted isn't a government site - it's a private site that's guessing 10,000 applications will be accepted based on the Liberals' campaign promises.

Right. CIC is the only official reference but I think there are some news leaking. Have you noticed that from around 25th, they removed all references to 5000 on the PGP application pages?

Hi Guys,

For example, we are selected on the cap... can our parents apply for visitor visa at the same time? Do we need to notify embassy? TIA!

Applying for visitor visa (supervisa) for your parents is a separate issue. No relations to PGP applications. You can apply at any time.

Hello,

Could you please advise me how I should send my application. I have only 1 complete package, how ever cic states that "The applications for both sponsorship and permanent residence should be filled out and sent at the same time" Does it mean I need 2 same complete packages and send them at the same time? I really appreciate your advice.

Hi.
No, just one complete application is required.
They mean you should submit sponsorship application(2 forms (1 for Quebec)) together with PR application (all other forms). And pay fee for sponsorship 75$ and PR 475 (if without dependants).
