Canada is one of the countries with more humane considerations for family reunification. The Canadian government reserves a certain quota every year for family reunification immigration applicants. But this visa application has been suspended for a long time since the outbreak. However, according to the projected immigrant population quota plan for 2022-2024 announced earlier by the Canadian Immigration Service, they have reserved about 100,000 places each year for reunion immigration applications. Among the reunion immigrants, there are also partners, parents, grandparents, and children. Among them, the number of quotas for the parent and grandparent immigration program is relatively small, and it is a matter of course that it will become a very popular program.

When young people go out to work hard, they just want to bring a better home to their families. Therefore, many people want to bring their parents and even grandparents back to live with them even after immigrating. The Canada Reunion Immigrant Visa gives these individuals a great opportunity to reunite with their children or family abroad faster, easier and more directly.

How family members immigrate to Canada and the types of reunion immigration

Parent/Grandparent Sponsored Visa

The Parent or Grandparent Sponsorship Program has a specific application period each year, usually in January of each year. If you miss this application period, you will have to wait another year before submitting your application. Therefore, it is very important to prepare the required documents as early as possible in order to avoid unexpected delays in the application. Once the application is successful, the parents or grandparents can have Canadian permanent residency.

When making an application, applicants (i.e. children or grandchildren) need to make a commitment and provide proof that they are capable and willing to take care of their parents or grandparents, and can provide the basic daily needs of the dependants to avoid them Apply for social assistance provided by government social welfare agencies.

Dependent Eligibility Visa

  • Parents, adoptive parents, step-parents or grandparents of Canadian permanent residents or citizens
  • Parents may bring their children under the age of 22 to Canada with them


Parent and Child Canada Dependent Immigrant Visa

Dependent Eligibility

  • Applicant's children, stepchildren, adopted children
  • under the age of 22
  • single person
  • 22 years of age or older who can demonstrate that they were unable to become financially self-sufficient due to a physical or mental disability before the age of 22


Spousal Sponsored Canada Visa

In principle, it is the same as other relative sponsors, but the applicant who is issued a sponsorship has an additional condition. The sponsor must have lived in Canada for five years before they can sponsor their spouse or common-law partner to apply to Canada. Even if the applicant is successfully naturalized as a Canadian citizen during this five-year period, they must wait five years before applying.

Dependent Eligibility

  • Applicant's spouse, de facto partner and common-law partner
  • De facto partners or common-law partners need to prove that they have lived together for more than 12 months
  • Non-common-law partners need to demonstrate that they are dependent on each other, but cannot live together for some reason


Parent and Child Reunion Immigrant Visa Application Process

1. Our immigration lawyers will first collect brief information from those who intend to apply, and then evaluate whether they are eligible for this visa application.

2. The applicant submits a letter of intent for sponsoring parent/grandparent/child/spouse reunification on the official website of the Canadian Immigration Service.

3. The immigration office draws lots and then sends an invitation letter to the winner. The Immigration Bureau currently uses a random lottery method to automatically select the winners of the annual quota from applicants who have submitted letters of intent. Immigrant places are not on a first-come, first-served basis.

4. Successful applicants need to submit complete application materials, such as proof of kinship, financial proof, etc. After the immigration office checks the information and is eligible, it will issue an Invitation to Apply (ITA) letter to the applicant. The guarantor will then need to pass a medical examination and provide a certificate of no criminal record.

5. After the application is approved by the immigration bureau, the immigration bureau will mail the maple leaf card to the applicant. The sponsored person needs to enter Canada within the specified time.
