Canadian citizens and permanent residents living in Canada can apply to sponsor their spouses, dependent children, parents/grandparents, and in limited circumstances, other family members.
Spousal sponsorship is a type of family reunification where you can sponsor your spouse, common-law partner, or dependent children to become permanent residents of Canada. Sponsors must be able to support them financially and provide them with all essential needs.
If you do spousal sponsorship, it’s important to know the following:
Sponsors must sign an undertaking and sponsorship agreement and must not breach the conditions of the sponsorship agreement during the period of financial undertaking.
The length of the financial undertaking period depends on the type of the application and, in certain cases, the age of the sponsored person.
We’ll help you understand your eligibility, and what to expect in terms of application wait times along with preparing and filing a comprehensive application with accuracy.
