Good Afternoon,

Question for the knowledgeable folks in family sponsorship.

My sister lives in Pakistan with her two children and my family would like to sponsor her to Canada. She is a dependent and my family has been sending her money monthly. My parents would like to initiate the sponsorship, however, they do not have enough income to show that they could support her. However, at the same time, my siblings and myself have decent jobs and should be able to support her and her children together. My question is that is it possible to have multiple co-signers on the application?

Appreciate the feedback, thank you.
 
Your sister cannot be sponsored through family class. If she wishes to immigrate to Canada, she will have to qualify and apply independently through one of Canada's economic immigration streams (e.g. Federal Skilled Worker / Express Entry).

Thank you for responding, if your you don't mind me asking, what's the reason behind this? I thought parents can sponsor daughters?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Parents can sponsor minor (under 19) unmarried children.

Thank you.

Parents can only sponsor their kids if they're under 19 years old and not married, or over 19 years, but has a physical or mental condition that requires financial dependence from the parent.
