FAMILY IMMIGRATION

Spousal, Partner, and Children Sponsorship

Reuniting Spouses and Partners

Canada’s immigration policy offers a generous opportunity for Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor their spouse, common-law, or conjugal partner for permanent residence.

• Eligibility: The sponsor must prove their status in Canada, their relationship to the person being sponsored, and their ability to provide for basic needs.
• Application Process: Detailed documentation is required to demonstrate the legitimacy of the relationship, including marriage certificates, cohabitation evidence, and more.

Bringing Children to Canada

Canadian sponsors can also bring their dependent children to Canada.

• Who Qualifies: Dependent children, including adopted children, who are under the age of 22 and do not have a spouse or common-law partner.
• The Application: Requires proof of the parent-child relationship and that the child will be supported financially without public assistance.

Parent and Grandparent Sponsorship

Parent and Grandparent Program (PGP)

This program allows Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor their parents or grandparents.

• Interest to Sponsor: Potential sponsors must first submit an ‘Interest to Sponsor’ form as part of an annual lottery process.
• Financial Requirements: Sponsors must meet certain income thresholds to ensure they can support their family members for a period of 20 years.

Super Visa

Extended Visits for Parents and Grandparents

The Super Visa is an alternative to the PGP, allowing parents and grandparents to stay in Canada for up to two years at a time over a 10-year period.

• Requirements: Applicants must provide evidence of the child or grandchild’s ability to support their stay and have medical insurance coverage.

Other Family Sponsorship Opportunities

Relatives Sponsorship

In certain circumstances, Canadian citizens and permanent residents may sponsor one relative, related by blood or adoption, of any age if the Canadian sponsor does not have a living spouse or common-law partner, child, parent, grandparent, sibling, aunt, uncle, niece, or nephew who could be sponsored instead.

Adopted Children and Other Relatives

Adopting From Abroad

Canadians seeking to adopt children from abroad can bring them to Canada through the immigration process.

• The Process: Includes obtaining an adoption visa and involves various international and Canadian legal requirements.

Sponsoring Other Relatives

If you have no other relatives to sponsor as mentioned above, it might be possible to sponsor another family member.
