Hi,

I've become Canadian PR recently. I and my husband who is Canadian are planning to
sponsor my mother to come over. Regarding the application, we wish to get
professional advice from immigration experts that can help us to make our decision:-

1. What documents are needed from my mother, after our sponsorship application
is approved.
2. Can we send out the application form imm8-family from us in Canada, instead of my
mother herself?
3. The most importantly, we're not sure which embassy we should choose to make the
application go faster and smoothly. Buffalo or Beijing?
4. Will my mother need an interview at the end of the application?

Thanks in advance,

Sincerely yours,

Mei

Your mother will at least have to prove she is your mother through birth records. You
don't mention your father. Is he still alive?

There is no problem with a M-3 medical. The M-5 Medical assessment means that your
parent is inadmissible to Canada for "excessive demand on medical services" At this
point the Visa office has two options:

1. They will usually give you 60 days to submit further medical information to
refute the Medical finding of excessive demand, which will be sent to the
Medical officer. If the Medical officer still considers your parent as
medically inadmissible and it is concurred in by another Medical officer,
then the Visa officer will refuse the application. At this time your parent
and you will be sent a refusal letter. On receipt of the Refusal letter you
will have 30 days to submit an appeal to the Immigration Appeal Board. You
should have legal representation with a good knowledge of Immigration law
to submit the appeal.

2. The second option is that you can request a Minister's permit based on the
need for you to have your parent in Canada, for instance that they have no
one in their home country to look after them. You should again have an
experienced Immigration lawyer or consultant help you with this. Should the
Visa office decide that s/he will reccommend a permit, then the request is
forwarded to the Regional office where you reside. In most provinces, the
Regional office will forward the medical information and recommendation
from the Visa office to a Provincial Medical committee, as the Province
would responsible for providing care for your parent. The Medical committee
will make a decision if they feel a Minister's permit should be issued or
not. The reccommendation of Medical committee, and the Visa office will
then be reviewed by the Regional Office who will agree or disagree with the
reccommendation. If all parties agree, then your parent will be issued a
Minister's permit to enter Canada. If one party disagrees with a permit,
then the application will be refused. You still retain your right of Appeal
on the refusal.

Thank you very much for reply which is a very valuable information for me.

Could you reply to my few more questions:

What type of further medical information can my parents submit to refute the Medical
finding of excessive demand?

They have already have the medical examination done by the DMP and later on examined
by the the specialist doctor referred by the DMP.

What rights a person on Minister permit has in Canada? Is person status in Canada is
same as on tourist Visa?

Regards,

Arvinder

What rights a person on Minister permit has in Canada and is he allowed to use
provincial health service? How much time this process take? Is person on Minister
permit status in Canada is same as that on tourist Visa?

It depends on the medical diagnosis (I am not a Dr.) but what you would have to
demonstrate in the request for the permit is that you and your family have sufficient
resources to provide for your parent and that private arrangements can be made to
ensure that the parent will not be a burden on the Health System.

A person on a Minister's permit allows that person to either enter and remain or
remain in Canada. They are usually issued for 1 year at time. The permit holder is
neither a visitor nor a permanent resident, they are allowed to work or attend
school with the proper authorization. The permit is issued to overcome an
inadmissibility factor, in your case, your parents inability to pass the medical
exam. If a person resides in Canada continuosly for 5 years, they can apply for
Permanent Residence status and DO NOT have to, in the case of your parent be able to
pass the medical exam.
