Frequently Asked Questions

Canada Spousal Sponsorship Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about sponsoring a spouse to Canada.

A Canadian citizen or permanent resident aged 18 or older who can support the spouse and is not barred from sponsoring (for example, by certain criminal convictions or an earlier undertaking that's still unpaid).

A legally married spouse, a common-law partner (living together for at least 12 months) or a conjugal partner, aged 18 or older.

Outland applications are processed by the visa office for your region and allow travel; inland applications are for couples living together in Canada and may allow an open work permit while processing. We advise based on your case.

Processing times change; IRCC publishes current estimates on its website. A complete, well-organised application helps avoid delays.

The sponsor promises to financially support the spouse for 3 years from the date they become a permanent resident.
