Dependant children







Sponsor your dependant children to Canada

Looking to reunite with your child and build a life together in Canada? The Child Sponsorship Program, part of Canada's family sponsorship program, can help make that dream a reality. This program allows Canadian citizens or permanent residents to sponsor their children, or other dependents, for permanent residency in Canada.

Who Qualifies as a Dependent Child?

  • Age: Generally, a child must be under 22 years old and unmarried/not in a common-law relationship.
  • Exception for Adults over 22: If your child is over 22, they may still be considered a dependent if:
    • They have relied on your financial support since before turning 22, and
    • They have a physical or mental condition that prevents them from being financially self-sufficient.

Eligibility Requirements for Sponsors

  • Citizenship Status: You must be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident currently living in Canada.
  • Age: You must be at least 18 years old.
  • Financial Stability: You must be able to demonstrate financial stability to support your child's basic needs.
  • Criminal and Legal Status: You cannot be in prison, charged with a serious offense, or be declared bankrupt.

Sponsorship Process Highlights

  • Proof of Relationship: You'll need to provide documents proving your relationship with the child, such as a birth certificate or adoption papers. Even if you're in the final stages of adopting a child, you may be eligible to sponsor them before the adoption is finalized.
  • Financial Undertaking: By sponsoring your child, you agree to provide financial support for them and ensure they don't require social assistance from the Canadian government.

Overall, the Child Sponsorship Program offers a pathway for families to reunite and build a future together in Canada. If you meet the eligibility requirements and have the necessary documentation, you can sponsor your child to immigrate to Canada and share a life in this welcoming country.
