The 2025 intake will open for a few weeks starting July 28 for 17,860 potential sponsors who submitted an interest-to-sponsor form in 2020, according to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) in a notice published online Wednesday.
IRCC said its goal is to accept up to 10,000 complete applications under the federal Parents and Grandparents Program.
If you receive an invitation to apply in the 2025 intake, you can submit your applications online through the Permanent Residence Portal or the Representative Permanent Residence Portal, according to IRCC.
What if you didn’t get an invitation?
Those who submitted an interest-to-sponsor form in 2020 but didn’t receive an invitation to apply should check their email, including their junk and spam folders, IRCC added. It said IRCC will only send invitations to apply to potential sponsors from the 2020 pool of submissions and won’t be opening a new interest-to-sponsor form.
