Family Class Immigration
Family Class Immigration
The immigration policy of Canada gives high importance to keeping families together. The country has several family immigration programs that help Canadian citizens/permanent residents bring their close family members to Canada. Under specific immigration categories, the spouse of the applicant may also work in Canada on an open work permit.
Three types of family members can be sponsored under the Family Class Immigration program of Canada:
- Spouse or common-law partner
- Dependent children (Must be below the age of 22 years. They must not be married or in a common-law relationship)
- Parents and grandparents
If you wish to bring your parents or grandparents to Canada but not eligible to sponsor them for permanent residence, you may opt for Canada Super Visa, which is a multiple re-entry visa, and its validity is for up to 10 years.
