Hey, so I've recently been trying to revive my PR through H&C grounds citing that I was removes as a minor and my dad got sick while we were here in the Philippines. I read up on the stuff here and the PDF files they have uploaded on the CIC website and asked my cousin who works at the Visa Office in Mexico.
It seems like here, the general consensus is that they only consider those who apply at the earliest possible opportunity upon reaching the age of 18, but it says in the PDF file (and also the code used by Visa Officers) that the age of consideration is 22. I'm now 21 and I'm trying to prepare every document I have to prove why I couldn't leave at 18 (dad and grandpa are sick, dad is unemployed due to sickness, and my my mom has no one to help her).
Just a bit confused. Asked a lawyer too (cost me quite a bit just to effin ask!) and he confirms the age of 22 as the determining point. But here it seems like it's not the case?
