There are many ways to bring your family to Canada. You must first find out whether you qualify for this type of sponsorship or not. There are special requirements for you as well as your family members.
This blog will show you how to sponsor your family in Canada.
1. Processing Fees
Whether you plan to sponsor a family in Canada or your relatives already live here, you will need to pay processing fees.
These fees are set by IRCC and are increased every 2 years to reflect inflation.
You can sponsor a relative to obtain PR in Canada, but you need to be a Canadian citizen and must be able to support your family with financial support.
2. Minimum Income Requirements
Whether you are sponsoring a spouse, a child, or any of the family members, the minimum income requirements for a family sponsorship differ from one province to another.
But there are a few things you can do to increase your chances of getting a visa to Canada.
The most important thing is to get a full-time job in Canada.
3. Spouse Requirements
IRCC welcomes 1 lakh immigrants annually to its family sponsorship program. This includes spouses, partners and children. These sponsors must meet certain requirements in order for your family to be granted citizenship or PR in Canada.
4. Dependent Child Requirements
Whether you are a Citizen of Canada or PR, you may be able to sponsor a dependent child. Sponsoring a family is one of the most important immigration programs in Canada. In order to sponsor a dependent child, you need to fulfil certain requirements.
The requirements will be set by the Government. If you cannot fulfil these requirements, you may not be eligible to sponsor a dependent child.
The Canadian government believes that families are important to a person and as such wants to keep them together.
To achieve this goal, the IRCC Protection Act was passed in 2015.
This law permits Canadian citizens to support their dependent children.
Children under the age of 16 must receive support for a minimum of 3 years.
On the other hand, children over the age of 16 must be supported for at least ten years.
Sponsors must sign a sponsorship agreement stating that they will provide financial support to the child.
For parents and grandparents, the obligation begins when the dependent child becomes a Canadian PR.
Conclusion
Living in Canada with your family can be a boon for you as with the support of your family you can enjoy the exciting Canadian lifestyle.
We hope you understand the requirements you need to meet to be able to live with your family in Canada.
