The PGP 2019 - Canadian Immigration form was suppose to open on Mon Jan 28, 2019 at noon EST. I learnt about the PGP in Feb 2018 and realized that I have missed the deadline. I waited for almost an entire year for today when I would apply for my parents.

I am based in Toronto and on Mon Jan 28, 2019; I was ready since 10am and sharp at noon I started to refresh the PGP 2019 Submit the interest to Sponsor form (https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citi...). After 13 min, the page updated stating that they have received enough applications and the form is no longer available.

When I went to @CitCanada their official facebook page, I learnt that there are people who found the message that the forms are closed at 12:05pm EST. Such a disappointing effort from the Canadian Immigration, feels cheated and we are scammed by the government. I urge everyone who experienced the same disappointment and raise our concerns to the government.

As a proof, please see the attached file!
