The IRCC (Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada) has selected 10,000 sponsors, who showed in their interest in Parent and Grandparent Program in the beginning of the year. The IRCC made a change in the format of Parent and Grandparent Program (PGP) this year. The PGP allows the eligible sponsors to invite their parents and grandparents to Canada. However, the sponsor must be the citizens or permanent residents of Canada. Let’s find out more about the PGP selections under the new format.
10,000 Sponsors Selected- Require Submitting Application within 90 days
The sponsors who have been selected by IRCC will have 90 days to submit the complete application along with all the supporting documents to invite their parents or grandparents to Canada under Parent and Grandparent Program (PGP).
The PGP process started earlier this year when IRCC invited the online ‘Interest to Sponsor’ from the interested sponsored willing to invite their parents and grandparents to Canada. As many as 95,000 applicants submitted the Interested to sponsor form online, out of which, IRCC has now selected the 10,000 sponsors as per the annual PGP quota.
What’s new with the PGP this year?
This year many things have been changed in the Parent and Grandparent Program. Let’s take a look.Why IRCC took time to invite complete applications?
The ‘interest to sponsor’ form was submitted in the month of January, 2017; however, IRCC invited the complete applications on April 25, 2017. This was because the IRCC was busy in eliminating the duplicate profiles received in the PGP pool of sponsors.

I had an excellent experience with Visas Avenue. Specially want to mention about Ms Jyoti Singh, my case manager for all the help and support throughout my Canadian PR journey. Visas Avenue made the entire Canada PR process look really simple. Huge credit to the team for their professionalism , regular updates and ability to handle critical situations effectively. I am recommending Visas Avenue to a lot of friends and will continue to do so as they provide effective services with reasonable fee. Once again, Thank You Jyoti and Visas Avenue for all your support.

Enrolled with Visas Avenue in 2017 for Canada PR. Have had a good experience. Except for a few follow ups that were needed at times, I am satisfied with my over all result. Mrigya was my lead consultant, and she has helped me in all possible ways whenever I was in doubt. Have also received great support from Arpita from the team. I recommend everyone looking to settle abroad, can safely choose VISAS AVENUE as their partner.

Visas Avenue proven to be good consultant when it s regarding processing my Canadian pr. To me they were professional and I’m completely satisfied with the accountability they have shown in my case and follow ups they did for me. Rajeshwari.V is my Case Manager for Canada and she did an excellent job in explaining me the whole process/ documents needed and how/where to get them. Finally i got my pr exactly on/before the expected processing time. I knew the whole process and yet I took help of visas avenue as I wanted professionals to fail-proof my application and make sure it cause no extra unnecessary delays and that’s exactly what I got for them. Definitely recommended..!!

If you are looking for a Visa company who is fast, organized and very detailed oriented then you should get in touch with Visas Avenue Pvt. Ltd. Shivangi Arora was my case manager and she has a very good knowledge of the process. She was very prompt and diligent, she made sure that all the documents are provided on time so that the Immigration doesn t ask for anything at a later stage. I am really happy with their work as I have got my Australian PR because of them which is like a dream come true with 50 bands in each module in PTE test. I would definitely recommend them to all my friends and relatives who are looking forward for their visa processing. Keep doing the good job and making lives!!

I have been the client of Visas Avenue from past 1.5 years now and recently received the approval for Permanent Residency (PR) Canada. I must say that they are the finest bunch of dedicated professionals and probably the best in their domain. I visited them after receiving positive feedback from few of my friends & known. And I must say that I found their services exactly the same as I heard from my references.I was especially impressed by the way; my case manager (Ms Ruchika Sharma) went an extra mile whenever I asked her for help at every step, may it be related to the documents required, answering queries, LOI, online procedures, payments, etc.My Case officer & other support executives (Ms. Surbhi) were extremely helpful & professional throughout the visa process. At one point of time post many IELTS attempts I was unable to score CLB 9 & thereafter planned to drop the idea of immigrating to Canada but my case manager: Ms Ruchika Sharma was quite positive to convince me & gave vital advise to apply for Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP). In fact, she did it on my behalf and fortunately, I was nominated from the Ontario Province of Canada. It made my road to Canada lot easier as I subsequently, got Invite to apply for Canada PR, which wouldn’t have been possible without the sincere efforts of this hardworking professional team @ Visas Avenue. Thanks for making my wish come true.Best of Luck !!

Visas Avenue had to be the pathway I had to chose to sail through my PR process for Canada. I visited many agencies and with the way my initial queries were satisfactorily handled, I decided to move forward with their help. It has been a long journey and they have been thoroughly helpful and supportive in each and every phase of this process. Special Thanks to Gaurav Sharma - I disturbed him a lot with tons of millions of queries and doubts, but he remained calm, cooperative and fully knowledgeable to help me understand every nitty-gritty of the process. I will not hesitate in recommending Visas Avenue to any of my friends or acquaintances who wishes to apply for Canada PR application. Many Thanks once again Gaurav for your incredible support.

Very Professional Consultancy, which has actual meaningful escalation Matrix system for customers too. Without them I won t have been able to get PR simply because they put lots of effort for my PNP nomination. Special mentions to Mrigya Shah & Arpita Saha for their knowledgeable support, professional communication, support and efforts. Thanks a lot.
