Hello there:
I am just wondering if CIC asks for updates on your sponsorship application (such as updating your address or sending the most recent T4 slips) after they open it? Or do they decide solely based on the info provided at the time of submitting the application? If so, how would they find out if someone is living in Canada (since that's a requirement for sponsoring parents) or someone's financial situation has changed?
I appreciate any info on that.
Thanks,

They reconfirm after the sponsorship is opened.

I don't know which part of the immigration process require them to stay in Canada except that for citizenship.
Have they landed yet?
With the new bill C-24 in effect next year, time stayed before PR will not be counted towards physical presence of their citizenship requirement.

Hi

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/sponsor-parents.asp

Note that the program doesn't reopen until Jan 2nd, 2015, and is capped at 5000 applications. As the program is in high demand, the cap is likely to be reached within a week or 2.

Your parents stay in Canada doesn't count for anything.
