Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2018

[zheka]

Hi guys,
I am sponsoring my application for my parents; Father is the primary applicant and mother is the dependent
With regards to my brother, he is 28 yrs of age and is not financially dependent nor accompanying. Since I do not think I can apply for him as a dependent under the family class I am not including him in my application. I hope this should be fine. Please advise.
Thank you,
Nick.

Yes, it is fine. Just make sure to include him in "additional family information".

Woohoo... I just sent in my application for my mom. Will provide further details to add to spreadsheet once it gets delivered. Thank you everyone on this Forum. It has been always very helpful.

Quick question with regards to documents

Schedule A - Background/Declaration (IMM 5669)
Additional Family Information (IMM 5406)

Should my mother and brother also fill these documents and sign separately.
Thank you,
Nikhil.

Mother - yes. Brother - no. As he is not a part of the application, he is not required to fill anything.

Just do something like this: for the From date, use the date of applicant's last study. For country and state use whatever country the applicant studied.

Mother - yes. Brother - no. As he is not a part of the application, he is not required to fill anything.

So how does it apply for your brother? He is not dependent.

 

[iengineer86]

she never sponsored anyone before.....worked for only 2 years i..e.. 2015-2016,....... having PR from past 5 years and staying in Canada
is there any other requirements? what if she does not work in future?

Then she is eligible as co-signer, if she is not going to work in future that is fine as well.
Because you will only get benefit from her as a co-signer if she makes any income but if not then not making any difference but obviously you can use her income from 2015-2106 and keep her as co-signer.
