July 2025

The end of this month will bring a new Parents and Grandparents draw from the same pool of interest from 2020. 10,000 families who completed the interest to sponsor in 2020 but have not yet been invited to apply will receive emails from IRCC inviting them to complete their applications.  

The draw will begin on July 28th, 2025. Those who have a chance at being drawn should check their spam or junk folder, and if they are using Gmail, their socials folder to ensure that the invitation email is not missed. 

Those who didn’t complete the interest to sponsor form, or who couldn’t, because they weren’t permanent residents at the time, are still out of luck.
