Can I apply for my PR first and then apply for my family?

[sherin42]

Hello
Can someone help me, please?

If I apply with my family (husband and 2 kids) I have CRS point of 426 and if apply for myself, then as per the CRS calculator, I am able to score at least 452.

If I apply for myself, at the current draw scores I am sure to get an ITA. My question is, once I get my PR, how long do you think it would take to get a PR for my family as well?

Is this a feasible idea?

Also Indian education system wise I have completed my Masters which counts as a four-year bachelors degree in Canada. Would it be possible for me to do a one-year Montessori diploma course and get a study visa for the same?

Yes, you can apply with dependents as non-accompanying. Family sponsorship would take as long as 12 months or more. But recently, some spousal sponsorship takes 6-8 months. My friend got her PR under Family class in 7 months.

Good luck.

Thank you very much. Would I have to show that I have a permanent job there to bring them over or would my PR status be enough?

I already have an EE profile with my family can I create another just for myself and apply? Are two profiles permitted?

I am not familiar with Family sponsorship but yes, you will be assessed first if you are eligible to sponsor your family/dependents before you can proceed with the application. You can post you queries on the Family Class section of this forum.
