Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

[jayzhuo]

Hi. I would say its 6 persons in both applications.
Happy holidays to you too)

Hi ElenaRu,

Thanks for your reply. Does that mean I need to add 2 more persons for the 1st application under 3(B) and does not need to count it again under 4?

2. You (1)
3. A) Current Undertaking (2)
B) Previous undertakings
i) Number of persons included in previous undertakings you signed as a sponsor and that are still in effect. (0)
ii) Number of persons included in previous undertakings you signed as a sponsor and that are not yet in effect(persons who have not yet become permanent residents). (0)
iii) Number of persons included in previous undertakings you co-signed, where these undertakings are still in effect. (0)
iv) Number of persons included in previous undertakings you co-signed, where these undertaking are not yet in effect (persons who have not yet become permanent residents). (2)
4.Complete this section only if your spouse or common-law partner is co-signing the undertaking.
i) Number of persons included in previous undertakings your spouse or common-law partner signed as a sponsor and that are still in effect. Do not include persons already accounted for in 2. or 3.B(iii). (0)
ii) Number of persons included in previous undertakings your spouse or common-law partner signed as a sponsor and that are not yet in effect(persons who have not yet become permanent residents). Do not include persons already accounted for in question 3.B(iv). (0)
iii) Number of persons included in previous undertakings your spouse or common-law partner co-signed, where these undertakings are still in effect. Do not include persons already accounted for in question 3.B(i). (0)
iv) Number of persons included in previous undertakings your spouse or common-law partner co-signed, where these undertaking are not yet in effect (persons who have not yet become permanent residents). Do not include persons already accounted for in question 3.B(ii). (0)
5. your spouse (1)

and basically it is the same as that in the 2nd application?

Thank you!
Jay

Request for quick input.

Actually in my mother passport it does not have last name and in given name it is two letter word.

Some of the form has mandatory last name, what should I do in that case.

Thanks in advance.

Hi
My question is weird but just for information any one please reply
I heard that CPC send your applications back after they reach to cap of 5000 so my question is do we have to provide them canada post stamp or they will send it by their own expense?
Thanks in advance

Hi ,

I would really appreciate it if you could help me.
I have been living with my partner for a year now but with a 2-months gap, when I was visiting family in my country. Does the "one-year" condition for common-law restart from when I came back to Canada?
also, has anyone ever sent the sponsorship application later in January and managed to make it for that year's cap? I cannot make it for the January 1st and my work permit expires in mid 2017.
Thank you guys for your help!

One more question, if you don't mind.
On the Generic Form (0008), i asks for National ID. Can it be a Candian ID , like a Provincial ID , or should it be from my home country, such as a birth certificate ( in which case I am not sure how to put the expiry date)?

Thanks in advance !

Yes - the one year restarts from the time you returned to Canada.

The cap applies to parent / grandparent sponsorship applications only. I think you may be confused about this fact. Are you being sponsored by your child / grandchild - or your common law partner.

 

[lvl_stella]

Thank you for your reply. I am being sponsored by my partner, but apparently, I cannot claim it as a common law relationship for now, since I was away for two months.

This is what I did- In the last name- I typed " Last name not on passport"

Hi Jay,

I am in the same situation sponsoring both our parents. We have 2 kids as well, so our number increases.

But is it 2 separate financial evaluation forms with you+ 2 for curent undertaking + spouse = 6 for both ?

hi.
I believe, national ID is ID of country of your citizenship. If you are a canadian citizn, then you can use number of canadian citizenship certificate as national ID.

So are most people going to be using Purolator for delivery? I live in the GTA and could use local courier services, the one I was looking at was VW courier because they have a separate section on PGP sponsorship, but they charge upwards of 100 bucks.

http://www.couriertoronto.com/CPC-Parent-and-Grandparent-Immigration-Registration-Form.html

Has anyone used this service before and are they reliable?

Last year lots of people used Purolator and their applications were delivered on time and accepted according to the 2015 spreadsheet:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18cBR0XqWnHriJx7_oThC3q5YPb1Qzsu9XMfy7vNFXY8/edit?pref=2&pli=1#gid=0

But only one person reports using VW.

So I'm not sure which one to use. Ideas? ???

thanks

hello everyone ,

I have a question about Financial evaluation form.

My wife became PR of Canada in 2011 .I sponsored her to come to Canada after our marriage.Now when i complete the financial evaluation form , will i have to add her name on the previous undertaking OR just add her name on on 5. Your spouse or common-law partner........ line OR both.

If both , then it will change my family size.

Please advise.

Thank you
