There's no option that allows your parents to move to Canada either with you or shortly after getting PR.

It will be a number of years before you can sponsor your parents for PR after you arrive in Canada - at least four years - maybe more. Your parents will only be able to move to Canada and permanently live here once the have PR.

Until then, they can apply for a TRV to come to Canada for a short visit. To be approved, they'll need to demonstrate strong ties to their home country and show they have no plans on remaining in Canada long term. Once you have a job in Canada that meets the minimum requirements, you can apply to have them come for a longer visit on a super visa. However they will still only be visitors in Canada and won't be allowed to move her permanently. As visitors, they won't be able to work and also won't qualify for any health care coverage - meaning you will have to pay for any medical care they need yourself.
Thanks for the info.

Wrong- as long as you have spent 1 Taxable Assessment year, the applicant can sponsor his parents as long as he/she meets the Minimum eligibility from a financial standpoint, and other associated conditions (like health coverage for your parents). This is called the Super Visa and they can stay for 2 years at a stretch as opposed to the TRV visa.

Furthermore, a pilot programme is currently underway where PRs or citizens can sponsor their parents to become PRs- this has quite stirred a hornet's nest as the applicants are determined on a lottery. As a result, many find this proposition untenable.The last date is today, so apply sooner should you wish to try your luck ! :)

Lastly, as you rightly alluded to, the TRV stands a good chance of getting your parents sooner.

Hope this helps.

Seems like you have misread the post or don't fully understand the rules for sponsoring parents for PR. I mentioned the super visa at the end of my post as a means of bringing parents to Canada as temporarily visitors. As I mentioned, the super visa allows longer visits - but doesn't allow parents to move to Canada permanently (they can only do this once they are PRs). While on the super visa, parent has visitor status - meaning they cannot work and don't benefit from the health care system.

Sponsoring your parents for PR requires three (3) years of income earned in Canada and Canadian tax return statements must be provided to prove you have made enough income to qualify. Since three full years and tax returns are required, realistically it takes at least four years for someone to qualify to sponsor their parents after arriving in Canada. Yes - the system is a lottery and only 10K applications are accepted each year.

Can I request you to please show me this '3' years income you're alluding to? I can become a full-fledged Canadian citizen by then, and don't need my PR status to sponsor too.

What happens if my income is above 100,000 CAD in a single Tax assessment year- can't I sponsor my parents for supervisa or PR?

anyone is processing your PR application with multiple agencies? i.e. CEC with a help of A agency and PNP with a help of B agency. Would it be possible or is there any rule that a single applicant only can have a one single representative?

Hi All
I am new to this forum
I have few question and I would appreciate if anyone can guide me
I have already applied for the paper based PR process after getting the provincial nomination.
Now I am wondering if I am eligible to apply through express entry as the paper based process is 18 months.
Currently I have 6 months of experience as a manager. So will I be eligible once I complete a full year as a manager?
Or are there any other ways?

Hello all. I have a query regarding FST category if someone can help.
I am running my own business of Furnishings( which can be related to Carpenter in express entry) from the last 10 years in my home country. I don't have any diploma related to that. I don't have any degree also.
If I apply under FST category, how can I prove my experience. What all documents will berequired and do I need to get WES done for my 12th.

Hi,

Yes, it's in category C. Therefore, if he is the principle applicant you won't qualify.
Skilled experience is in NOC A, B or 0.

You can have different agents for each step of the process. It's allowed.

You dont get any points for the spouse's work experience unless it is Canadian. So if it is not just leave it blank and say he has no experience at all.

Hello everyone, I'm new here and need some help on th e following questions
1. My job title is Data center operations. And my job title is listed under computer network technicians; NOC 2281. However, I don't seem to see enough matching job duties as stated on the CIC website. How do I go about this?

2. My wife's name on her birth certificate has is correctly spelt out. While her international passport has her first name in place for her middle name which is contrary to what she has on her birth certificate. How do I go about this ? Will an affidavit suffice for this ?

Thank you team.
