Canada’s Spousal Sponsorship program is a vital part of its family reunification initiative, allowing Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor their spouse or partner to join them in Canada. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) prioritizes spousal sponsorship applications, with recent improvements reducing processing times to around 12 months, both for applicants within and outside Canada.
Under the Spousal Sponsorship category, successful applicants are granted permanent residency upon approval, allowing families to live together in Canada.
