Family Sponsorship
Family sponsorship is a great pathway for families to reunite with their parents, grandparents, spouse, and relatives. Did you know you can sponsor your relatives to come to Canada to live permanently? There are certain requirements to be met in order to be able to sponsor your loved ones under this program. According to the 2019 Annual Report to Parliament on Immigration, out of 321,035 permanent residents admitted to Canada, 85,179 families were re-united under the family sponsorship stream.
Sponsor your Spouse, partner, or dependent child:
In this type of sponsorship, there are various steps and filters one has to go through. As mentioned above, one must be an eligible sponsor.
A sponsor is a person who signs an undertaking to give financial support for basic needs such as food, clothing, shelter, and other medical needs that are not covered by the public health services. This undertaking is a binding promise of support, meaning that it is the sponsor’s responsibility to support the applicant for the length of the undertaking period even if the situation changes.
Here is how we can help:
- Confirm eligibility of sponsor and family member(s)
- Determine type of file based on relationship
- Gather necessary information
- Provide detailed list of required documents
- Preparation and submission of sponsorship application
- Help with medical or criminal inadmissibility
- Customized border crossing
The length of undertaking for a spouse, common-law partner, or conjugal partner is 3 years from the day your partner becomes a permanent resident.
If you are sponsoring a dependent child over 22 years of age, then your undertaking is 3 years from the day your dependent child becomes a permanent resident.
If your child is under 22 years of age, then your undertaking is for 10 years from the day your dependent child becomes a permanent resident, or until the child becomes 22 years old, whichever comes first.
An important fact to know? You can sponsor your partner while being outside Canada only if you are a Canadian Citizen! However, the sponsor must prove that he/she will reside in Canada once the sponsored person becomes a permanent resident.
