Sponsoring a spouse or a child

SPONSORING A SPOUSE AND CHILD

Do you wish to bring your wife/husband to Canada? Don’t worry! ImmiLaw Immigration is here to help you bring your family to Canada permanently! It is not our expertise alone that guarantees that you can bring your family to Canada, but also the fact that Canada, as a country, gives the highest priority to family unification. That is exactly the reason why spousal sponsorship remains to be one of the fastest pathways for permanent residence in Canada. Moreover, sponsoring a spouse does not involve meeting the minimum financial requirement.

Sponsoring a relative to come to Canada is easier than you think!

A Canadian citizen or permanent resident can sponsor three types of relatives:

• Spouse or common-law partner
• Dependent children under the age of 22(They must not be married or in a common-law relationship)
• Parents and grandparents

Things to remember:

• Only Canadian citizens and permanent residents in Canada will be able to sponsor their close family members.
• The family members you can sponsor are spouse, dependent child or your parents or grandparents. You cannot sponsor any other type of family member, including a sibling, cousin, niece, nephew or close friend.
• You can sponsor only your married or common-law partner. You cannot sponsor a person to whom you are engaged.
• You can sponsor only the specified types of a relative. No other relatives will be considered.
