Your original post gives an impression that you are planning to sponsor him in the parents category. If that is still the case,it does not matter what his profession was or whether his profession comes under the "in-demand" occupation list, he will be processed as dependant and it will take a minimum of 5 years, based on the current processing times.
If he is filing as under the skilled worker professional category, then that's a different situation. Are you sure that he will get the pass mark of 67. Assuming that he is above the age of 53, has no arranged employment, nor education in Canada, the points total to 64. Take the test yourself to find out the score

Medical Professionals in Canada have 0.1% or worse success rate.
My wife is a medical professional and going through the pain.
Do not make the mistake of coming to Canada being a Doctor.

He might not practice full fledge...but something in his field...was wondering if any one can help me by answering these questions as it is a BIG BIG decision ...
I am not a fan of this sponsoring parents practice. Integration culturally is not going to happen and what i see is basically very little contribution to the economy but Canadian taxpayers have to bear the healthcare costs.

For most people its very important. Very few would leave their old parents alone back home more so if they don't have any siblings. This has emotional side to it not so much economical. More over when parents come to canada they most likely bring in all their liquid assets as well. So not really economically nil value.
Integration has meaning for young or working generation not so much for parents. If they can well and good otherwise they should be left to enjoy their old age with their family. Time to rest and pass on the tension to young ones.
Many people spend thousands of dollars to visit their parents backhome. All this extra effort, time, tension and money can be saved by having parents here. It gives fulfillment to most to live in happy large joint family. As a government its its responsibility that its citizens have right to live fulfilling life however they choose to live. If someone want's their parent to live with them then I don't think government should have right to refuse. (I know CIC has right to refuse but I don't think its fair to its citizens and is a denial of human right...)

Well said Manjeet. I COMPLETELY agree with you. Having my parents live with me would provide me an immense satisfaction and happiness. This is more a question of emotional happiness than money, economy, or anything else. Very very important - at least for me.
