Canada's Family Class sponsorship program allows
Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor eligible family members
to come to Canada as permanent residents. This program is a cornerstone of Canada's
immigration policy, emphasizing family reunification.
Who Can Be Sponsored?
- Spouses, common-law partners, and conjugal partners: If you are legally married, have lived together in a conjugal relationship for at least 12 continuous months, or are in a committed relationship but cannot live together due to circumstances beyond your control.
- Dependent children: Generally, children under 22 years old who are not married or in a common-law relationship. Children 22 years or older can be dependent if they have been financially dependent on their parents due to a physical or mental condition since before age 22.
- Parents and Grandparents: Through the Parents and Grandparents Program (PGP), which typically has an annual intake period.
- Other relatives: In specific, limited circumstances, such as orphaned brothers, sisters, nephews, nieces, or grandchildren, or if the sponsor has no other living close family members they could sponsor in Canada.
