Family Class Sponsorship

Through the Family Class classification of Canadian immigration, Canadian citizens and permanent residents may sponsor close relatives and family members for Canadian immigration.
For a Family Class application to be fruitful and successful, both the sponsor in Canada and their sponsored relative or family member must meet immigration prerequisites and requirements. These requirements and conditions differ depending under which program the application is submitted.

Necessities and Requirements for the Sponsor:

• The sponsor must be no less than 18 years old;
• The sponsor must be a Canadian permanent resident residing or living in Canada or a Canadian Citizen;

Take note of that same-sex marriage performed inside Canada are necessary for spousal sponsorship. If the wedding occurred outside of Canada, it must be legitimate under the law of the country where it happened and additionally under Canadian government law. Same-sex marriages that took place outside of Canada are not legal for spousal sponsorship, but rather an application can be made under either the common-law partner or conjugal partner classifications if such a relationship can be demonstrated.

  • Marital partner: Conjugal/Marital partner can be of either opposite-sex or same-sex. A sponsored individual is characterized as a marital or conjugal partner if:
