• your dependent children;
• your spouse鈥檚 or partner鈥檚 dependent children;
• another person you have sponsored before if you are still financially responsible for them;
• the parents and grandparents you want to sponsor
• dependents of the parents and grandparents you want to sponsor who you also want to sponsor (spouse or partner and dependent children);
• any dependent children that will not come to Canada with their parents or grandparents;
• the sponsor鈥檚 parent or grandparent鈥檚 spouse or partner, even if they will not come to Canada;
• the separated spouse of the parent or grandparent

Those that live in Quebec will have their income evaluated by the Quebec immigration ministry over the past 12 months. You can include your spouse or common-law partner as a co-signer.

The 2021 Parents and Grandparents Program will be three times larger than 2020. IRCC has stated it will invite up to 30,000 sponsors to submit PGP applications next year. Hence, even if you are not among the 10,000 sponsors for the 2020 PGP, you will have another major chance next year.
