Congratulations to those who got the invitation. But, honestly, this lottery system is not a good way to invite people for sponsoring their parents.

1. People’s families' lives depend on these decisions by IRCC. It should not be decided by a lottery. The government cannot make people’s life decisions based on a lottery.

2. How is it fair that people who became Canadian PR/Citizens in the last 1-3 years are invited to sponsor their parents, but those who have been PRs / citizens for more than 10 years are still waiting.

  • 3. Instead of lottery, the criteria should be simple - govt should first invite people who became PR/citizens till 2010 (those who meet income criteria). Once all those applications are received, communicate the time it will take to process those. Then invite the next few years and so on. That way at least everyone will have an idea how long is the wait. This lottery system is just ridiculous and unfair.   Riya Bedi  on Facebook post
