Use this app if you are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada and want to sponsor close family members living abroad, including your own: Most of the time not. However, if there are no documents to support your relationship, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada may want to meet with you and your sponsored family member. This can also happen if there is conflicting information on the forms submitted. For example, age, religious difference or little or no previous coexistence. This varies depending on the type of sponsorship and the number of family members you already have in your care. You will also need to sign a pledge to provide for the basic needs of the family member you are sponsoring. The sponsorship process can begin when adoption is in its final stages. However, your application will not be processed until a final adoption decision has been made. You must sign an undertaking with the Government of Canada in which you commit to providing for the basic needs of the sponsored person(s). This Agreement is valid for a period of time after the arrival of the sponsored person(s) in Canada.
This agreement ensures that sponsored family members do not become dependent on Canadian social assistance. If you live in Quebec, your commitment is to the government of that province. • Visit of parents and grandparents to Canada. • Parents and grandparents have sufficient ties to their country of origin (evidence of family, financial and other similar ties outside Canada). • A medical examination is required for all Super Visa applicants (forms and instructions will be issued by the visa office after application). • Proof of co-ownership of a residential property. • Rental agreement stating that the couple is a resident of the property. • Utility accounts. This can be electricity, gas, telephone, Internet). • Shared credit cards or bank accounts. • Car insurance, which shows that the couple has both been declared to the insurance company as residents of the same address. • Official ID with the same address.
Individuals in these categories are eligible for sponsorship: Family sponsorship offers many opportunities to bring foreign parents to Canada. It is considered one of the most generous family reunification programs in the world. This program aims to keep families together as much as possible. Including spouses, life partners, parents, grandparents and dependent children, they are all eligible for family sponsorship. In addition, there is also the Super Visa program, specially designed for people with different entry parameters. IMM 1344 contains detailed information describing the obligations that sponsors (and co-signatories) assume and includes a statement and the consequences of a sponsorship failure. By signing the form, the sponsor and principal applicant confirm that they understand what the company entails. Step 3: You must apply at the federal level to the Canadian Department of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship (IRCC) and, if you are a resident of Quebec, to the Ministère de l`Immigration, de la Fransisation et de l`Intégration (MIFI) at the provincial level.
You must submit your sponsorship application and applications for permanent residence (PR) from your family members or loved ones together. Once you have been identified as eligible for sponsorship, your PR application will be reviewed. Canada still accepts and processes family sponsorship applications. The commitment is a binding contract between the sponsors (and, if applicable, the co-signatories) and the Minister of IRCC. By signing an IMM 1344, proponents and co-signatories are expected to be able to support the applicant(s) in case they are unable to support themselves. This means ensuring that sponsored applicants and their accompanying family members receive basic requirements (including food, accommodation, clothing, necessary goods or services, and health and dental care not yet covered) for the duration of the business (R132). IMM 1344 must be signed by the sponsor, co-signer (if applicable) and sponsored family member. A parent can sign on behalf of a minor child who is too young to sign himself. A person with a power of attorney can sign on behalf of a client for whom they have the authority to sign, e.B. a person with reduced physical or mental capacity – in such cases, that person must provide a copy of a legal document to prove that they have been duly appointed. A change in circumstances – such as adultery, separation, divorce, family breakdowns, unemployment, change in financial situation or death of the principal applicant in cases where there are accompanying persons belonging to the family – does not destroy the business. Once the sponsored family member has permanent residence, sponsors and co-signatories remain required to formulate basic requirements for the duration of the business.
• The sponsor and his/her loved one must sign a sponsorship agreement that requires the sponsor to financially support his/her parent if necessary. If you are sponsoring someone who is coming to the province of Quebec, an “undertaking” must be signed with the province. • The sponsor must commit to providing financial support to relatives and all other eligible relatives who accompany him/her for 20 years. Time begins on the day the parent or grandparent has a permanent residence. • As part of parental and grandparent sponsorship, sponsors must meet the minimum income (MNI) indicated in the table below. The following MNI figures are LiCO (Low Income Cut-Off) figures plus 30%. • Your spouse or life partner can help you meet the income requirement by co-signing the commitment. However, if a co-signer helps you, they must meet the same eligibility criteria as you, the promoter. In addition, your co-signer must not be the sponsored person and must prove that you have been in a conjugal relationship for at least 12 months.
If a change in information is received during the processing of the application for permanent residence, the processing agency will notify the CPC. The CPC will contact the proponent if necessary. For the addition of a new family member, they ask the sponsor and applicant to submit additional forms and supporting documents necessary for the reassessment of eligibility for sponsorship. • Documents showing that the couple is recognized as having a common law relationship. • Proof of joint expenses or financial support. • Proof that friends and/or family recognize the relationship. These can be letters or information on social media that show that the relationship is public. • Rental agreement stating that the couple is a resident of the property. In particular, the sponsor must agree to financially support the family member if his or her parent cannot support himself or herself. This is to ensure that the new permanent resident does not need assistance from the state.
The duration of this financial commitment depends on the beneficiary: applicants undertake to make reasonable efforts to meet their basic needs and those of their family members […].
