Parent and Grandparent Program for Immigration to Canada to Reopen Imminently -
The New Year is often a time of change in Canadian immigration, with new programs opening and established programs inviting fresh applications. In less than five weeks, on January 4, 2016, the Parent and Grandparent Program (PGP) will reopen for an as yet undisclosed limited number of applications. The application intake period for this popular program promises to be competitive, giving sponsors and sponsored persons who prepare before and during the holiday period an opportunity to maximize their chances of submitting a successful application. Through the PGP, Canadian citizens and permanent residents may sponsor foreign parents and grandparents to immigrate to Canada as Canadian permanent residents.
