Immigration Programs for Family Sponsorship in Canada

A family that is together thanks to family sponsorship in CanadaYour relatives can live, study and work in Canada if they become permanent residents of Canada. Our expert immigration consultants can help you with family sponsorship to Canada. Family sponsorship to Canada is one of the most popular categories in Canada to obtain permanent residence. You can sponsor certain relatives to come to Canada through Canada immigration family sponsorship if you are:

  • At least 18 years old
  • A Canadian citizen
  • A permanent resident
  • A person registered in Canada as an Indian under the Canadian Indian Act

If you sponsor a relative to come to Canada as a permanent resident, you must:

  • Support your relative financially when they arrive
  • Be able to meet basic needs for yourself and your relative such as:
    • Food;
    • Shelter;
    • Clothing.
  • Make sure your relative doesn’t need social assistance.

In order to qualify for family sponsorship in Canada, you must first meet set income guidelines. The applicant must also agree, in writing, to give financial support to their relative as well as any other eligible relatives coming with them.
Financial support must begin on the date they become a permanent resident for up to 20 years. (The actual date depends on their age and how you’re related). There are two stages in the process for your eligible relatives to become permanent residents.

  • You apply to sponsor your relatives
  • Your family members must apply for permanent residence

Applications for both family sponsorship and permanent residence for your relatives must be sent at the same time.
Our immigration consultants can ease the application process of family sponsorship. We help you reunite with your family in Canada as soon as possible.
