Family Sponsorship

Family sponsorship in Canadian immigration is a program that allows Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor their family members for immigration to Canada. This program is designed to help reunite families and allows close relatives to live together in Canada. Family sponsorship can be an important avenue for family members to join their loved ones in the country. Bringing your loved ones to Canada is a cherished goal. Our compassionate team specializes in spousal, parent, grandparent and dependent child sponsorship, ensuring a smooth and timely reunification with your family members.

How Family Sponsorship Works:

Eligibility: Canadian citizens and permanent residents can sponsor their family members, including spouses, common-law or conjugal partners, dependent children, parents, and grandparents.

Financial Responsibility: Sponsors are required to commit to providing financial support and meeting the basic needs of their sponsored family members for a specified period.

Undertaking: Sponsors sign an agreement (undertaking) with the Canadian government, committing to support the sponsored family members financially and ensuring they do not access government social assistance.

Processing Time: The processing time for family sponsorship applications can vary based on the type of relationship and the country of origin of the sponsored individual.

 

Who Family Sponsorship Is Effective For:

Spouses, Partners, and Dependent Children: Canadian citizens and permanent residents can sponsor their legally married spouses, common-law or conjugal partners, and dependent children.

Parents and Grandparents: Canadian citizens can sponsor their parents and grandparents for family reunification.

Adopted Children: Sponsors can also apply to sponsor adopted children.
