    Can anyone confirm if Parents that arrive to Canada under this program are able to apply for Child Care Benefits? I am under the impression they can't get welfare since the Sponsor is responsible for that piece however not exactly sure what they get if anything?

    I got the Biometrics letters. Is it common to request to have the Biometrics done at a later time? There is no Canada visa application centre (CVAC) in the country of the people i am sponsoring. I have to book flights etc which is very costly and doesn't seem reasonable.
