Many Canadian citizens and permanent residents have loved ones abroad they wish they could bring to Canada. The Canadian government offers a number of ways to allow this dream to come true. Canada’s Family Class Sponsorship programs are some of the most generous family reunification programs in the developed world. After all, the Canadian government is committed to keeping families together whenever possible.
There are a number of relationships that qualify for Family Class Sponsorship including spouses and common-law partners, parents and grandparents, dependent children, and potentially other relationships under certain Provincial Family Class Sponsorship programs. For parents and grandparents, there is also the Super Visa program.
There are a number of ways to bring a parent or grandparent to Canada including Canada’s parents and grandparents sponsorship program, which has a yearly cap on the number of applications that are accepted.
