    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    Thanks BQM! Much appreciated. So just to clarify - can you please elaborate on why you suggest Case 1b? Case 1a seems to me to be safer choice, as in it will already have my fathers (#1), mothers (#2) IMM5406, and mine (#3) too. If for some reason the #3 does not apply, they will just discard...

    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    Did anyone send a bank draft in 2016 application? IMM5770 remained same since last year, and it only allowed "certified chque" or credit card. I have access to neither at the moment (my bank will only issue drafts). This morning when I called, the ever so resourceful CIC call center agent simply...

    CIC Misinformation / Rule Change ?? (Parents & Grandparents)

    That's what I believe to. Except as I indicated in my post the CIC agent suggested otherwise. Hence the reason for this post. Thanks for your interest.

    CIC Misinformation / Rule Change ?? (Parents & Grandparents)

    I want to share my experience of a recent call to CIC customer service regarding the 2017 intake of Parents and Grandparents Program, and ask your opinion about some related stuff. I called CIC last week regarding Question 9 of IMM 5678. My Question - Assuming CIC will publish a Minimum...

    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    Thanks for the response. What year's MNI did you put in Question 8 when you applied? Just to clarify - were your income for years printed on the IMM 5768 (2012, 2013, 2014; given your application was received by CIC in 2016) - all higher than MNI of 2014? I think, at the time of your...

    parents sponsership joine here

    I am confused about IMM 5768 and requesting help. Q8. MNI - 2015 Q9 - Total income available to sponsor - Add amounts 16 (h) and 19 (h) and enter total for each year. If this amount is less than the amount of the minimum necessary income above, you do not meet the...

    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    Thanks again. I am not questioning what you said and I think the Case 1 you selected is the reasonable choice, but my interpretation of what is on IMM 5768 seems to suggest that the Case 2 is the criterion applied by CIC. Q8. MNI - 2015 Q9 - Total income available to sponsor - Add...
