hi,

I want to sponsor my parents, they have a dependent child over 22. But I don’t want to include him in the application because no intention to bring him here yet. My parents will come here to stay in turns.

PR is not intended to be a replacement for a visitor visa, which is what you're suggesting here.

Are you avoiding the dependent because of the LICO amount? You still must declare them in the application.

Can you explain "dependent child over 22"?
Is that person physically incapable to take care of him/herself?

General definition of dependent is under 22.

I don’t know what is LICO amount. I want my prents to have their PR just in case they will need to stay here later in life/ or for longer stays without hussles. I don’t want their applications to be rejected because of the dependent child.

Are they going to be able to meet the 2 in 5 years requirement?

The dependent child will need to be declared as part of the application - whether or not the dependent child accompanies your parents. The child is declared, and must undergo medical assessments. Even if nonaccompanying, children are examined as if they would accompany because of situations like these.

It is difficult to explain because I have no real proof he is dependent. He has mild disability, hand injury. He is able to take care of himself but needs someone to supervise him.

If you have no medical proof he is dependent, then he cannot be proven to be dependent.

It a previous posting you had mentioned your brother is 40, but has the mental capacity of a 10 year old , that is far from a mild disability
Also mentioned that if something was to happen to your parents you’d have to leave and go back to take care of him
Probably should be a wee bit more forthcoming on the details , so you can receive accurate answers for your questions

This is the official definition of dependent child over 22:

" - 22 years of age or older, have depended substantially on the financial support of the parent since before the age of 22 and be unable to support themselves financially due to a physical or mental condition"

If their son meets this definition, then he is a dependent and must be declared as such. If he does not meet this definition, then he is not a dependent for the purposes of immigration.

That's a huge difference from "a minor hand injury."

Can you please tell us the full truth so we can actually give you real advice? :confused:

This is serious!! I don't know if OP can omit him in the application. it's complicated.
Can never omit. If there is a child they must always be declared. But since OP is being very secretive about details, it's hard to tell if the child would be truly dependent or not. Hand injury or mental age of 10, there are massive differences there and since the OP is hiding the details, it makes me think that the OP also wants to hide the child to IRCC.
