SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP (Frequently asked questions)

Are you seeking advice how to bring your new partner to Canada?

Here are some answers to your questions:

  1. Should we get married first before coming to Canada?
  • Normally it is best to get married in Canada and then apply for sponsorship.
  • Your acceptable marriage certificate from overseas often takes longer to obtain.
  1. If we get married overseas, when can my new spouse come to Canada?
  • First you need to submit a complete spousal application to IRCC.
  • Once IRCC issues an acknowledgement of receipt (AOR), your spouse can apply for a Visitor Visa, which may be approved by IRCC as quickly as 30 days.
  1. When can my spouse apply for a work permit?
  • As soon as you receive an AOR from IRCC for your submitted sponsorship application.
