Family sponsorship allows Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor their family member for immigration to Canada that includes children, parents, grandparents, spouses and common-law partners. Family sponsorship applications are given top priority by Canadian immigration officials. Canada family sponsorship has two main categories; outland and inland sponsorship.
Outland Family Sponsorship
When the sponsored partner or family member lives outside of Canada
Inland Family Sponsorship
Inland sponsorship is used when a person in Canada has a temporary Canadian status, either as a worker, student or visitor. Also know as in Canada sponsorship for spouses, common-law partners and close family members such as parents and dependent children.
Obtaining and applying for Canadian citizenship can be a long and labour intensive process. We get ahead of these issues with your timely consultation and before they add any delay in term of days or even months to the process of becoming a Canadian Citizen.

Generally, you must provide proof of this union, such as joint financial records, property, mail, or purchases.
