Parents and Grandparents program concludes in a week
Since the opening of the parent and grandparent immigration program (PGP) in 2011, it has attracted tens of thousands of Canadians to apply each year. Affected by the COVID-19 pandemic this year, the program has been postponed since the beginning of the year and did not reopen until October 13. This year PGP adopted a lottery method, where the IRCC will randomly select the sponsors in the applicant pool and invite them to submit formal applications online. The selected applicants need to submit their applications within 60 days. The quota for this year’s intake is limited to 10,000 applications. Nevertheless, those unlucky may have better chances next year, when the government promises to accept 30,000 applications.
