PGP 2020 - Co-signer clarification

[ivikas]

Hello all,

I have a question regarding the PGP 2020 application. I am trying to see if I am eligible to submit an intent to sponsor my parents this year.

I was a student in 2018 and don’t have any income in that year (the rest of the income does meet the requirement for 2019 and 2020). But I am getting married in the end of Nov (after the intent submission period is over, but before the application, if my application gets picked) and my fiancé had income in 2018 (which is good enough to meet the required number for 2018). Wondering if she can co-sponsor my application this year or I have to wait till next year.

Thanks

It tough to say. I think as long as you get married and have your spouse sign as cosigner before you have to submit your application assuming you get picked, you should be fine.
