Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[Marini]

Hi,

I got the notification that my application to sponsorship my mom has been withdrawn since I have not met the minimum income in 2016. As per my NOA I met the threshold, however $5K came from EI and therefore I fell short $2,600. I did not know that EI was excluded from the calculation of income requirements, which looks unfair since I paid taxes over that amount of money. 2017-2018 income are way above the minimum required.

In the letter I received CIC says that my application was withdrawn and the money will be refund. Is there any way I can appeal CIC decision?

Thank you,
M

HI Marini

Was your family size same for all the 3 years?

HI Marini

Was your family size same for all the 3 years?

Including my mom will be 4. I did not include my hubby's income because I thought mine was more than enough.

Thanks,
M

Is it safe to assume that the family size was 4 for 2016,2017,2018?

I think you should contact VFS VAC helpline. They ask for alternate pickup location in case of non-serviceable areas. All the best!

Thank you! Yes, I m aware of that.
I wanted to know if they need any letter authorizing the people living at the alternate address to handover the passports on my parents' behalf.

I would think it is nice to always give a simple letter to provide supporting info needed. If you are sending someone else for pickup, usually authorization (like confirming the signature of person picking up in a letter and some identification (e.g. drivers license or passport etc.) would never hurt.

Hi Guys , I got a request to send Adhar card & Voter card for proof or relationship and they have also request PCC again. I have already submitted PCC in 2019 should I get a new one or can send the old one.

I was asked for PCC twice, i just resubmitted the old ones along with the proof that the original PCC was submitted at the time of the original request and i said i can provide copies of new ones if necessary. They accepted the old ones...

I think providing everything asked for will help to avoid any additional delays. But as I saw a previous comment about submitting the old PCC worked, maybe you can start the process for PCC but send the old one with the statement. I know PCC has validity so sometimes they may require a new one and they are doing it very randomly-some people need it and others don't. So starting the process will help you save some time in case they require a new one.

Yes. We were only 3 living in Canada for those years, but I assumed I needed to add my mom to the calculations
