International student in pei

[maka]

hey, I live in pei with my aunt and uncle. I'm an international student here, my aunt and uncle are Canadian citizens for more than 6 years now. Can they sponsor me PR? It would reduce my international fees very much. Thanks!

Please read carefully.

CIC says:

Who can be sponsored   (by your uncle and aunt)

They can sponsor:

    * parents
    * grandparents
    * brothers or sisters, nephews or nieces, granddaughters or grandsons who are orphaned, under 18 years of age and not married or in a common-law relationship
    * another relative of any age or relationship but only under specific conditions (see Note below)
    * accompanying relatives of the above (for example, spouse, partner and dependent children).

Note: they can sponsor one relative regardless of age or relationship only if they do not have a living spouse or common-law partner, conjugal partner, a son or daughter, parent, grandparent, sibling, uncle, aunt, nephew or niece who could be sponsored as a member of the family class, and they do not have any relative who is a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident or registered as an Indian under the Indian Act.
