Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced that the Parent and Grandparents (PGP) Program lottery which was scheduled to be held by the end of December has been delayed to either January or February 2021.
Currently IRCC is going through all the applications that have been received to remove the duplicate applications, hence the delay. Once this is process is complete invitations to apply will be sent out and sponsors will be invited to apply.
This year the parent and grandparent expression of interest opened from October 12th to November 3rd, and IRCC accepted only 10,000 applicants.
What’s new for the 2021 PGP Program?
IRCC announced that it will invite 30,000 applicants to sponsor and the invited sponsors will have 60 days to submit their applications to IRCC.
