Sponsorship & Permanent Residence

We assist families in reuniting and obtaining permanent residence through Canada’s family sponsorship programs, guiding applicants through every stage of the process with care and expertise.

Spousal Sponsorships (Overseas & Inland)

This program allows Canadians and permanent residents to sponsor their spouse or partner for permanent residence, whether the partner is living abroad (overseas sponsorship) or already in Canada (inland sponsorship).
Both pathways require proof of a genuine relationship and compliance with strict documentary and eligibility requirements.

How we help:

  • Eligibility Review

    • Sponsor eligibility

    • Immigration history of the spouse

    • Previous refusals or immigration issues

    • Barriers such as inadmissibility or missing documents

  • Relationship Evidence Strategy

  • Application Preparation

  • Communication & Monitoring

  • Representation for Complex Cases

​​​​

​Sponsorship of Dependent Children

Parents who are Canadian citizens or permanent residents can sponsor their biological or adopted dependent children for permanent residence, helping families reunite and build a stable future in Canada.

 

How we help:

  • Eligibility & Custody Review

    • Custody and guardianship documents

    • Adoption records

    • Proof of dependency

    • Consent from non‑accompanying parents (where required)

  • Document Preparation

  • Application Assembly

  • Managing Special Situations

Common‑Law & Conjugal Partner Sponsorship (Overseas & Inland)

Canadian citizens and permanent residents may sponsor a common‑law or conjugal partner for permanent residence. These categories help couples who cannot marry or have faced obstacles preventing them from living together, such as immigration restrictions, cultural barriers, or safety concerns.

How we help:

  • Common‑Law Proof Development

  • Conjugal Partner Strategy

  • Application Preparation & Submission

  • Addressing Red Flags

    • Large age differences

    • Short relationship history

    • Limited in‑person meetings

    • Complex travel or communication patterns

  • Have no spouse or common‑law partner

  • Have no children (biological or adopted)

  • Have no parents or grandparents who can sponsor

  • Have no other close family members who could be sponsored under existing family sponsorship categories

 

How we help:

  • Eligibility Assessment & Legal Strategy

  • Humanitarian & Compassionate (H&C) Grounds Development

  • Evidence Gathering & Documentation

  • Application Preparation & Submission
