Dear All
I have a quick question , anybody can help ?
If a main applicant lose the PR status( due to the non satisfying the number of days) , would his/her family be affected too ?
or they will be treated separately ?
(suppose that the family together are on the same condition of number of days, but the main applicant travels out and in( alone) and got reported while entering to the Canada alone )
Regards

Generally after the family lands, there is no main applicant any more and each person is responsible for their own PR. The main applicant can lose his and the family will keep theirs.

The only exception is for certain business class applications where there is a condition on the PR and the main applicant was expected to open a business and show certain results in order to lift that condition. In such cases, if the condition is not lifted, the whole family stands to lose their PR.

If that is not the case and the main applicant's PR is revoked because they did not meet the residency obligation but the main applicant´s spouse is in Canada and meets the RO, the spouse could sponsor the main applicant for PR again.
 
Thanks Leon for reassuring me as well. I am about to lose my PR and it is reassuring that my older daughter who has met her residency obligation will be able to sponsor me again when need.

Best, Yanny

The parent sponsorship has been suspended pending amendments including:

1. Significantly increasing the required income of the sponsor
2. Increasing the sponsorship obligation period to 20 years
3. requiring the submission of a minimum 3 years NOAs

The rational is that many Canadians do not live with their parents/grandparents so why should immigrants get this as an easy option?

True. In many countries, you have zero chance at sponsoring your parents. You can get them over on a visit visa if you pay for health insurance at most, ,kind of like the super visa we currently have.

Retired immigrants will make use of health care without adding to the work force. However, if the parents are not retired, there may be other ways for them to immigrate.
