Hi All - It has been 5 years since i have submitted interest to sponsor form in 2020. Every year, i wait to see for the selection process. My parents are now 70+. No luck in getting invitations this time too. I am getting disappointed every time. Is there any parents age factor in selection process or its pure lottery?

Pure lottery/luck.
 
I am still waiting. I wanted to apply since 2018. Here I am in 2025 with minimal hope.

You and hundreds of others want to sponsor their parents. The reality is that parent sponsorship was never guaranteed and people need to be planning for care for their parents in their home country. If you get lucky you may eventually get PGP but it will be very difficult to get selected and with the state of healthcare the quotas are likely to remain very low.

The chance of being picked is not affect by their age. But as they age, the chance of passing medical exams may lower if their health decline.

Good luck for your parents this round. They are still sending invites.
