PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM

The Parents and Grandparents Program opens once a year. It lets citizens and permanent residents of Canada sponsor their parents and grandparents to Canada. Parents and grandparents approved under this program receive Canadian permanent residence and may eventually apply for Canadian citizenship.

HOW THIS PROGRAM WORKS

Step 1: If you’re eligible to become a sponsor, you must submit an interest to sponsor form. This form is usually available in October or November, so everyone who wants to submit one can.
Step 2: After the online form closes, IRCC reviews the form submissions and removes any duplicates. IRCC randomly selects and invites potential sponsors to apply to sponsor their parents and grandparents. IRCC emails the invitations and posts the invitation status on their website.
Step 3: If you’re invited to apply, you must submit your application package by the deadline in your invitation.

PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS

You can sponsor your parents and grandparents if
  • you’re invited to apply
