sponsorship by a relative

[June60]

Hello ,

Do you know if Canada and Quebec have started the sister sponsoring sister quota? My sister is a Canadian citizen and lives in Montreal. I am a US citizen. Can my sister sponsor me?
Thank you

She most likely can't sponsor you (it has nothing to do with quotas - you probably don't qualify to be sponsored by her). Does she have a spouse / common law partner and/or children? Are either of your parents still alive? Are there any other family members in Canada (e.g. aunt, uncle)?

Hi,

My sister is alone in Montreal. She has no one in Canada.
Can she still sponsor me or the Province of Quebec has a different law than the rest of Canada?

Thanks

Are her parents alive? Does she have any kids or any other sibling?

No she has no one. Neither do I.

No she has no one. Neither do I.

She can sponsor you if both parents are deceased, she has no children or spouse/common law partner, and has no other relative in Canada.

Thank you for the info.
How about Quebec law. Since she lives in Quebec, can she still sponsor me even though she is alone, has not kids, no parents, no children, etc?
