Spousal Sponsorship

Spousal Sponsorship/ Inland Spousal Sponsorship

The emphasis of Canadian Immigration is to reunite close members in Canada through Family Class Program. Under the Spousal Sponsorship program, a Canadian citizen or permanent resident may sponsor a spouse or common-law partner for Canadian permanent residence.

The other important option for Spousal/Common-Law Sponsorship is the Inland Sponsorship. Inland sponsorship is when the couple is together in Canada and the foreign spouse/common-law partner has temporary status in Canada, either as a worker, student, or visitor.

To be eligible under this program, the sponsor and applicant must demonstrate that their relationship meet the requirements of one of three categories:

• Spouse
• Common-law Partner
• Conjugal Partner
