The Parents and Grandparents Program enables Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor their parents or grandparents for permanent residency in Canada.
Canada in 2025 will stop accepting new applications for permanent residence under the Parents and Grandparents sponsorship programme. IRCC has said they will only process family sponsorship applications submitted in 2024 under the Parents and Grandparents Program.
For 2025, IRCC aims to process no more than 15,000 sponsorship applications.
For those Canadian citizens and permanent residents wanting their parents and grandparents to stay longer in Canada, the super visa option remains available, permitting visits lasting up to five years per stay.
