Chapter One Financial Refusals and Requirements for the Sponsor Introduction A Canadian citizen or permanent resident may sponsor a foreign national who is a member of the family class [IRPA, s. 13(1)]. General An undertaking is binding on the sponsor [IRPA, s. 13(3)]. The Act authorizes regulations on "sponsorships, undertakings, and penalties for failure to comply with undertakings" [IRPA, s. 14(2)(e)]. An officer is to apply the regulations on sponsorship in accordance with any instructions made by the Minister [IRPA, s. 13(4)]. Appeal Rights Sponsors who have filed an application to sponsor in the prescribed manner have a right to appeal a decision not to issue a member of the family class a permanent resident visa [IRPA, s. 63(1)]. 1 A sponsorship application that is not in accordance with section 10(1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations [IRP Regulations] is not "filed in the prescribed manner" [IRP Regulations, s. 10(6)]. Discretionary Jurisdiction The IAD cannot consider humanitarian and compassionate considerations on an appeal unless the sponsor is "a sponsor within the meaning of the regulations" [IRPA, s. 65]. "A sponsor within the meaning of the regulations" means as described in section 130 of the IRP Regulations. 1 Khera, Ramandeep Kaur v. M.C.I.
