Spouse sponsorship
Canadian Spousal sponsorship is the way in which a Canadian citizen or permanent resident can sponsor a partner for permanent living in Canada. In Canada, we are aware of the importance of being together for families. Spousal sponsorship applications are thus a primary priority.
How much time does it take in Canada to sponsor your spouse?
Applications for sponsorship take roughly 12 months from beginning to end. They usually do not proceed much quicker than 12 months, but depending on the nature of your case, they might take more time. If you have a difficult case, or visa office need further information then, your case will be delayed, and it will take longer. The best way to guarantee the best speed with which your sponsoring application is completed is to ensure that all documentation is done in the first time. We have assisted to make hundreds of applications for sponsorship
