(in reply to: Sponsoring my mother.) No. If you do not meet the LICO, don´t even bother to submit an application, just a waste of time. There is no exception. Remember, you have to meet the LICO from date of application to the time when the application is assessed. I knew someone who barely made it (by $36.00)at time of application. Few years later (because parent-type applications take a long time), officer requested updated financial statement, and he got refused because he was off by about $300. The reason is because LICO increases every year but his pay stays about the same!

(in reply to: Sponsoring my mother.) does your Mom have other children or family in the Phillipines? if not, there might be a chance on humanitariam grounds but it is a long shot and a lengthy one at that.
a lawyer can´t do anything beyond make sure you filled in the forms correctly

(in reply to: Sponsoring my mother.) If you are born in Canada, how did your mom ended back in the Philippines?
