Family Sponsorship

Facilitating family reunification is a core immigration priority for the Government of Canada.

 

Under the family class, the sponsors must be Canadian citizens or Canadian permanent residents over18 years old, and are able to financially support the persons being sponsored.

 

Both the foreign nationals (applicants) and the sponsors will be assessed for eligibility under family sponsorship.

Spouse, Common-law Partner, Conjugal Partner and dependent children

 

To be eligible, the sponsor must live in Canada while the person being sponsored becoming a permanent resident.

 

The spousal sponsorship is often seen as relatively straightforward and simple. However, applicants, in spite of being married legally to the sponsors, sometimes will surprisingly find that their applications get refused because the officers consider the relationship between the applicant and the sponsor is mainly for the purpose of immigration.

 

We believe that a well-prepared application, supported by a proper explanation of peculiar aspects of the marriage is crucial for a positive outcome.

Parents, grandparents, and their dependent children

 

To be eligible, sponsor must:

  • be residing in Canada while applying the sponsorship AND the parents and grandparents becoming permanent residents

  • provide proof of income for three consecutive taxation years immediately before the application to meet the minimum necessary income level.

Under exceptional circumstances as follow, the sponsor can sponsor

  • an orphaned brother, sister, nephew, niece or grandchild who are under 18 years of age and single; or

  • one relative, related by blood or adoption, of any age, if the sponsor doesn’t have a living relative he/she could sponsor instead, and doesn’t have any relatives who is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada.
