    Explore options for your family

    Your available options depend on your status in Canada, your family relationship, and each person’s circumstances.

    Sponsor your spouse, partner, or child

    Canadian citizens and permanent residents may be able to sponsor an eligible spouse, partner, or dependent child for permanent residence.

    Bring family while you study or work

    Depending on your program, occupation, permit, and family member’s situation, your spouse or partner may qualify for a work permit and your children may qualify to study in Canada.

    Include family in your PR plans

    If you’re applying for permanent residence, your eligible spouse, partner, and dependent children may be included in your application. Family members should be declared accurately, even when they are not accompanying you.
