Canada is the perfect country to settle with family and enjoy high living standards and quality of life. The family-sponsored visas are the key highlight of the Canadian immigration program.

The Spousal Sponsorship Program of Canada is a sub-category of the Family Sponsorship Program only.

It allows Canadian permanent residents and citizens to sponsor their Spouse /Common-law-partner or dependent children for Permanent Residency in Canada.

The Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) must authorize the sponsors of Canada Spouse visas (i.e. Canadian Permanent residents and citizens). It ensures hassle-free visa allocation to the sponsored people.
