Family Sponsorship

Family Sponsorship allows Canadian citizens or permanent residents to bring their parents to Canada, reinforcing the importance of family unity. This program provides a pathway for parents to live, and potentially become permanent residents, in Canada.

What’s Family Sponsorship?

Family Sponsorship is a program allowing Canadian citizens and permanent residents to bring their parents or grandparents to Canada.

It aims to reunite families by providing parents and grandparents with the opportunity to obtain permanent residency in Canada. This initiative underscores Canada’s commitment to keeping families together, offering them a chance to share in the country’s quality of life, access to healthcare, education, and the vibrant multicultural community.

It’s a pathway for families to live, work, and thrive together in Canada.

The Importance of Family Sponsorship

Family Sponsorship plays a crucial role in bringing families together in Canada. It offers a pathway for Canadian citizens and permanent residents to support their parents in joining them, bridging geographical distances and fostering family unity.

This program not only facilitates the reunion of family members but also enhances their lives by allowing them to share in the stability, safety, and opportunities available in Canada.

Through Family Sponsorship, families are given the chance to build a shared future, experiencing the rich cultural and social fabric of Canadian society together.
