Spouse Sponsorship to Canada
Spouses of Canadian citizens and permanent residents can be sponsored to become permanent residents of Canada. Two people are involved in the sponsorship process: the sponsor and the sponsored person. The sponsor must be 18 years of age or older and agree to give financial support to the sponsored person for three to five years, depending on the sponsor's relationship with the sponsored person. The sponsored person must also meet specific qualifying standards, such as being financially self-sufficient and not having any severe criminal records.
If you are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident and want to sponsor your spouse to become a permanent resident of Canada, visit the Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada website for additional information.
