If you are married, he must be included on the application even if not interested. You all must go through the medicals too. So your son, must meet LICO for 4 people over the next 3 years. If your profile is selected before your daughter turns 22, it is locked in. Processing after being selected will take years.
Sponsoring my daughter

Your son will only qualify to apply in 2 years so he would essentially hope his application gets selected in the year or 2 you have before she turns 22. This is far from guaranteed and many have attempted to get selected for many years and are still waiting so have a plan B. If he gets married during this time or during the processing time he will need to add another family member. Processing of the application is 12-24 months so your daughter may only get PR if selected closer to 23-24. As others have said his father must be included in the application and pass the medical. Certainly no harm trying but this isn’t something you can count on.
Thank you very much. I am not so hopeful after all the info I got here . As you said I have to have a plan B.
You should certainly try and there is certainly a chance but given your daughter’s age and needing to wait 2 years before even qualifying it is far from guaranteed.
Also make sure your son meets LICO for 3 consecutive years (2020, 21 and 22). In the past, it is around $60-62k for 4 people but for 2020, it was much lower due to COVID. If he doesn't meet LICO for one of those years, he is not eligible.
Given the timeframe (i.e. it will take years and is quite uncertain), your own plans, and that it seems sponsoring your daughter is important to you and her brother: it seems to me the best measures you can take are to ensure your daughter gets the education and work experience that would allow her to qualify on her own to become a PR.
You might wish to consider higher education in Canada for her. While it's by no means a guarantee of eventually getting PR, university students can work in co-op programs, can usually work after graduation for a certain period (post-graduate work permit), and Canadian experience is a plus as well in eventually applying for PR on her own.
