Can I Sponsor My Mother Only & My Sister Can Sponsor My Father

[Jagpreet]

I checked the income requirement for PGP 2020 applications. I fulfil income only for 5 persons and my sister who is also Canadian PR, fulfils income for 4 persons. My family includes me, my wife, and my two sons. For my sister, it is her husband and her daughter. As we both make income in which we can sponsor only one parent. Can I sponsor my mother and my sister can sponsor my father?

A sponsor has to fulfill the income requirements as per IRPA and IRPR. If a sponsor has less income than required, can not pick and choose the applicants based on their income. A sponsor will be eligible or not eligible, only a spouse can be a co-signer. Two brothers or two sisters or a brother and sister can not combine their income for the sake of sponsorship for parents or/and grandparents.
