🏠 Reunite & Thrive — Family Sponsorship in Canada
Bring your spouse, partner, children, parents, or eligible relatives to Canada and enable them to live, work, study, and build a future together. With family at the center, we help you navigate this emotionally significant journey with care and expertise.
👥 Who You Can Sponsor
Spouse, common‑law, or conjugal partners
Sponsor your spouse or partner to become a permanent resident of Canada — whether they are inside or outside the country. We assist with both Inland and Outland sponsorship applications, including eligibility assessments, proof of relationship guidance, and dual intent strategies where needed.
Dependent children
You can sponsor your biological or adopted children who are:
-
Under 22 years of age and not married/common-law
-
Over 22 but financially dependent due to a physical or mental condition
We guide you through proving dependency, legal guardianship (where applicable), and reunification planning.
Parents and grandparents
Sponsor your parents or grandparents under IRCC’s annual intake system:
-
Must receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) during the lottery
-
Must meet the Minimum Necessary Income (MNI) threshold for 3 consecutive years
We help with ITA response, income documentation, and medical/financial compliance.

In very limited circumstances, you may sponsor:
-
Orphaned siblings, nieces, nephews, or grandchildren who are under 18, unmarried, and without parents
-
One relative of any kind if you have no other eligible family members (rare cases)
We assess eligibility and provide documentation strategy for these exceptional cases.
