Family Sponsorship
Interested in having your parents or
grandparents join you in Canada? If you are
not eligible to sponsor your parents or
grandparents permanently, you should
consider the new Super Visa. The Super Visa
is a great alternative allowing your parent or grandparent to stay up to 2 years in Canada
per visit, valid for 10 years.
This is opposed to the regular Multiple-Entry Visa, which is also valid up to 10 years however the holder is only permitted to stay 6 months at a time.
Family Sponsorship Has
Never Been Easier
If you are a citizen or permanent resident of Canada 18 years or older, you can sponsor your:
- Spouse,
- Common-law or conjugal partner, or
- Dependent children
- Parents and Grandparents
Through Family Sponsorship your relatives can live, study and work in Canada if they become permanent residents of Canada.

In addition you need to meet certain conditions:
- You need last year income tax papers ( Notice of assessment)
- Not receiving social assistance ( except if you are on disability)
- Working ( ability to support self and family)
