Spousal Sponsorship

Spousal sponsorship is a process that allows a Canadian citizen or permanent resident to sponsor their spouse or common-law partner to come and live with them in Canada. This program is designed to help couples stay together and reunite in Canada.

To be eligible for spousal sponsorship, the sponsoring partner must be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident and be at least 18 years of age. The sponsored partner must be their spouse or common-law partner and meet certain requirements, such as being over 18 years of age and not being inadmissible to Canada.

The spousal sponsorship process involves two main steps: the sponsorship application and the immigration application. The sponsorship application is completed by the sponsoring partner and includes information about their relationship and financial situation. The immigration application is completed by the sponsored partner and includes information about their background, education, and work experience.
