With intake caps and lottery-based invitations continuing to shape the Parents and Grandparents Program (PGP), this course prepares RCICs to effectively guide sponsors through eligibility assessments, financial requirements, and documentation. Participants will review updated minimum necessary income (MNI) thresholds for 2025–2026, common pitfalls in sponsorship files, and the latest PR portal submission process. A case study on complex PGP files highlights challenges such as income gaps and medical admissibility issues. By the end of the course, RCICs will be equipped with practical tools to improve success rates and advise clients realistically under program constraints.
