In order to meet high demand for the parents and grandparents sponsorship program, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada sent out a second round of invitations starting from July 31 to potential sponsors who completed an interest to Sponsor form in January.

On July 28, 2018, the Minister increased the number of annual applications accepted for processing from 10,000 to 17,000.

If you have submitted an interest to Sponsor form in 2018, be sure to check whether you received a new invitation by email.

Potential sponsors can confirm whether they have been selected by looking up their Confirmation Number through the following link:

Borders Law firm

Ranjana Vashistha

It was an exceptional experience with border law firm. They take time to understand client situation and offer the best option. Devika is well knowledgeable lawyer and easy to connect with. John took care of my case and went above and beyond my expectation. He was always there to answer my question. The most responsible lawyer I ever meet, to meet my deadlines, I know he worked many evenings and weekends. I strongly recommend this law firm. In fact no one should go to consultant. My each and every penny spend with this firm is worth more. I am thankful to Devika and John for helping me and my family for our immigration needs.

I and my family want to express our sincere thanks and gratitude to Devika, John and the team at Borders Law firm for assisting us with the PRTD application at a time when most processing was closed due to lockdowns. They also worked proactively with us to establish a good strategy with back up plans which gave us sufficient information and assurance. Very responsive and forthcoming with information. Proactive in processing but at the same time they put enough time in the application and the supporting details to have high quality of the application. As a result our application was processed in 1 go at a time when it was critical and sensitive time for the family. Thank you again.

Devika's always given the bestest of the advice and helped making the right choice and decision. Thanks to the team for all their hard work and attention to detail.

Borders Law Firm is my far the best experience I have had. After consulting and meeting with other immigration lawyers, I really felt confident with this firm. I have worked with Jenny Mao over the past year and I am happy to say that she has helped me out immensely and I am extreme grateful for not only her professionalism, but for her hard work and determination. I highly reccomend Borders Law Firm. From my experience, they are the best in the GTA.
