Who this is for
Citizens and permanent residents ready to reunite family
This service is for Canadian citizens and permanent residents who want to sponsor a spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner, dependent child, or parent or grandparent.
Many clients come to me unsure which stream applies, what relationship evidence will carry weight, or how inland and outland options differ. I start with a clear assessment before any filing begins.
Scope
What I help with
Focused support across the family sponsorship pathways I see most often.
Family Class
Often called outland. Usually more travel flexibility, and IAD appeal rights are typically available if refused. An open work permit is not automatic.
SCLPC Class
Spouse or Common-Law Partner in Canada Class. An open work permit is usually available while PR is processed. Travel during processing carries risk, and there is normally no IAD appeal.
Dependent children
Sponsorship of dependent children, with attention to eligibility, custody documents, and supporting evidence.
Parents and grandparents
The Parents and Grandparents Program is paused for new interest forms and invitations. It is permanent residence, not a Super Visa.
