We are helpful, but ignorant and arrogant people such as yourself are insensitive to the outrage here. Nothing to do with luck when your ignorance = sabotage!

I agree this form is to help everyone to re-unite to their families.
And there is tons of information that you could read to find out if you are eligible or not prior to fill the web form.

Btw I got selected this year or in your words I can say " I am the lucky one" but there is lots of people who didnt get selected.

Guys, don't fight, its not candidates fault, whoever will see an open "free" form will fill it, there is no harm for anyone filling that. The key point is that system is broken and need fix.

Anyone would have gladly helped you if you asked this question before you entered for the draw, which is what you should have done.
Don't even bother sending your application, you will get rejected.


and.. when someone points out your mistake, which may have negatively affected lives of thousands, just take it like a man, you have no excuse for your negligence.

I would point out that sending the application requires $550 per parent; if you are selected and verified not eligible. don't waste your money due to negligence.

I have the same issue. Did you call IRCC? If Yes, What number you called?

Guys I cannot believe that you did not even follow the very important instruction on the lottery form itself. Take a screenshot of the confirmation number AND WRITE IT DOWN and you are all set. With the volume of call to IRCC, you may end up not meeting the 90 days and waste your chance. I really don't understand how you can be so ignorant for such important stuff.

Guys, as another individual mentioned in a similar discussion, this forum is for constructive opinions and for helping people in this complex process. Please keep your criticism at home.

I called 1-888-242-2100 went to option "2" "sponsorship" and then followed the instructions until i got to the "speak to an agent" option. I waited for 20 minutes while listening to their automated messages. One of them said: " if you received and email notifying that you have been selected, but do not have a confirmation number, print the email and indicate that you do not have the confirmation number, rest assure that your submission will be matched with the selected sponsor".

Your wife can be a co-signer so you can add her income, if the total doesn't meet the requirement, then you're not eligible, you can apply but it will denied.

Forum members, the selected people can APPLY, but the ineligible applicants will just be denied and will be asked to reapply if they get selected again in the future draws.

Note that it can take up to 3 years for IRCC to actually verify income, so during this time waiting one would also miss out on applying in future lotteries.

If a sponsor doesn't meet the income requirement, they should not bother submitting an app at all.

Yes you are correct, but we can't stop them from applying and be denied later on.
