👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 The 2025 Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship Program is now open!

📬 IRCC has started sending out invitations to apply (ITA) under the 2025 PGP. Around 17,860 invitations will be sent, aiming to approve 10,000 complete applications.

✅ Only individuals who submitted an “Interest to Sponsor” form in 2020 (and haven’t been invited yet) are eligible this round.
⚠️ No new submissions are being accepted in 2025.

📅 If you submitted the form back in 2020, check your email carefully (including your spam folder) to see if you’ve received an invitation.

💰 Sponsors must meet the Minimum Necessary Income (MNI) for 2022, 2023, and 2024, based on family size. Income proof from tax returns is required.

🔒 A 20-year financial undertaking is also required (10 years in Quebec).

📝 If you receive an invitation, you must submit your full application through the PR portal before the deadline indicated in your email (no later than October 9, 2025).

💡 Didn’t receive an invitation? You can still consider applying for a Super Visa, which allows your parents or grandparents to stay in Canada for up to 5 years at a time, with possible extensions.

Thinking of applying for a Canadian visa or immigration program? Here's what you should know:

📌 As of June 30, 2025, IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada) is facing a growing application backlog — now sitting at 842,800 cases across all programs.

🔍 Here’s a quick breakdown:

🛂 Permanent Residence (PR)
• 46% of PR files are backlogged — especially high in Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs).
• Express Entry backlog is around 20%, while family sponsorship sits near 14%.

🧳 Temporary Visas (Work, Study, Visit)
• Overall backlog rate: 36%
• Work Permits: 40% backlogged

✅ Study Permits: Good news! Backlog dropped to 18% — the lowest in over a year.

🇨🇦 Thinking about moving to Canada but already over 40? Here’s what you need to know.

A lot of people assume they’re too old to immigrate once they hit 40 — but that’s simply not true.

While Canada’s Express Entry system does give fewer points for age after 30, there are several other ways to make up for it — and even more immigration programs that aren’t age-focused at all.

✅ Boost your points with strong language test scores (English or French)
✅ Get your education assessed (ECA) to unlock more CRS points
✅ Use your work experience to your advantage
✅ Apply through a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) — some add 600 points to your profile
✅ Explore employer-driven or experience-based pathways like CEC or AIP

Whether you're a skilled worker, tradesperson, or have management experience, there's likely a pathway that fits your profile.

📩 DM us if you'd like help understanding which program works best for your background — we’re here to help you explore all your options, step by step.
