The Group of 5 ImmigrationCategory Sponsorship Requirements
-
I think you are getting a little confused about this. The Group of Five (G5) is a unique immigration category under which 5 or more Canadian citizens or permanent residents can sponsor a refugee who is living abroad to come to Canada. The primary condition is that the Group of Five may only sponsor an individual who has been recognized as a refugee by either the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) or a foreign state. In your scenario, you cannot sponsor your 5 friends unless they all meet the refugee requirement. For further information about this category, click on the following link:
