Parents & Grandparents Program(PGP) 2022

[parisien]

The program hasn't opened.

I submitted my intention October 13 2020 and today got email with invite.

You only need to provide pages with anything meaningful, visas, entry stamps, amendments etc. That's what I did and no complaints from IRCC.
I saw your post in another thread so might just answer it here:
For multiple passport holders, stick to ONE. Use this passport throughout the PR application and make sure it's not expiring in 6 months.
Also if they hold a passport from a visa exempt country, use that one will save a little trouble at the end. When the passport request comes, they don't need to submit the passport to stamp, just a photocopy of the info page.

This is really helpful

Hi guys,

I got the invitation today but the letter has my first name missing (only includes my family name) ... I am worried I checked the box indicating I don't have a given name which was in the intent form by mistake.

Note that I uploaded my passport bio page which has my full name at the time.

Any help?

Thanks

My wife got the invitation to apply for her parents and grand parents. I will co-sign the application as my wife doesn't work and she doesn't meet the requirement alone. my salary is more than enough to meet the requirements.
i am wondering if my wife's earning earning will impact the application of my in-laws?
any thoughts/experience in this matter?

How do you determine family size, with a husband, spouse, 2 kids and parent (Father and mother)? Does this represent family of 6? I am submitting a PR application for my parent.

Yes

That's correct!! But mine and my wife's income is less and I need to have my wife as co-signer and similarly for her if she applies, I need to be the cosigner.

	Myself(Sponsor)	Wife(Co-signer)	Total Income(Sponsor+Co-signer)		Required Income
2021	42000	45383.7	87383.7		49106
2020	53472.94	27710.58	81183.5		48167
2019	21269.93	36193.97	57463.9		61209

Hi, this is very unfortunate. I believe you will not be approved for spondorship
. Please also check with immigration lawyer.

Hi, as long as you meet the necessary income criteria, you will be good..at the same time, being proactive, you can ask your wife to look for part time wfh job..

Hi Guys,

I submitted my Interest to Sponsor form in October 2020 and got my invitation to apply today.I had given up on this totally and it took me by surprise!

I have an issue. I don’t remember if i had submitted the interest to sponsor both my parents or just one of them. Can you please let me know what my options are to find this out?

On the interest to
sponsor form I only
mentioned one parent.
Can I now apply to
sponsor them both?
You can apply to sponsor both
parents (or both grandparents) under
the same confirmation number if
• you were invited and
• you meet the income cut-off
needed to sponsor both of them
You should also include a letter
explaining why you're sending
applications for both your parents or
grandparents when only one was on
your interest to sponsor form.
We don't accept multiple
applications in one package. If
you're sending more than one
application, you need to send them
