One CIC agent told me today that in July they received a request from MIDI to stop processing Quebec family sponsership applicatoin becaues the max. number for family application has already been reached/attained this year, and he doesn't know how much applications are currently waiting in queue.
Happy New Year...
Good bye 2019 and welcome 2020....

hope now CIC will move forward with QC applicant .

Hello,
"Parents Sponsorship"
I received a letter from MIFI where they are asking me to prove that I am Quebec resident.
I moved to British Columbia temporarily almost 6 months ago because my employer needs me to work in BC for few months. I will come back to Quebec in Spring 2020. I explained this situation clearly in my original application. I added employer's job letter mentioning this situation. Also, I signed the form "A-0539 Declaration du garant a l'etranger". Yet they asked me to prove I am Quebec resident. I am Quebec resident Since 2012 and just moved to BC Temporarily because of work.
Could anyone help me and suggest what action should I take ?? IS there any one who's been in same situation ??
Is form "A-0539" only meant for people sponsoring spouse ? That means to sponsor parents you just cannot leave Quebec, even temporarily ?

Hi,
Yes I am paying for Hydro. I have all the Hydro statements under my name for the Quebec address. Also, I have revenue Quebec assessments letters with Quebec address. I have provided all this detail with my original application. Still he asked me to prove my Quebec residence. I do not understand why ? The lease for the apartment is under my roommate's name who is currently residing in the apartment while I am in BC working for my company temporarily.

Unfortunately I wouldn’t consider 9 month temporary especially when the only time that counts is the year before sponsorship and the time during sponsorship. I would contact a Quebec immigration lawyer before you respond.

I would like to but they are so expensive. I will search one of the online and will try to contact them. Otherwise, I will explain my situation in details and add proofs of my links to Quebec.

It wold be worth it because I fear that you are going to be refused sponsorship. Can’t guarantee that the lawyer will help but it is your best shot.

What is the main reason that makes you think They will refuse the sponsorship application ?

They are asking you to prove that you have been a Quebec resident but you have been out of Quebec for the past 6 months and will remain out of Quebec for the next 3+ months. You haven’t been a resident of Quebec during that time. You said you already specified that you had been transferred by your Quebec employer and you got a follow-up asking for you to prove that you were a Quebec resident. You essentially left Quebec after submitting your PGP application. I hope I am wrong but you need to be consulting a lawyer if you want your best attempt at keeping the sponsorship.
