Sponsoring your parents and grandparents begins with an invitation to apply. If you receive this invitation, it signifies that you have met the initial eligibility requirements.

Not Invited to Apply
Super Visa Option
If you have not received an invitation to sponsor your parents and grandparents, there’s another way to have them visit Canada. They may be eligible to apply for a Super Visa  allowing them to stay in Canada for extended periods, up to 5 years at a time.

Application and Document Preparation
Application Process
When invited to apply, you will need to submit two applications: the sponsorship application and the permanent residence application. Once both applications are approved, you’ll sign an undertaking agreement.

Document Preparation
A key aspect of your application’s success is the meticulous preparation of required documents. These documents include proof of identity, proof of relationship, and financial capability.

Submission Letter
At Segue Immigration and Tours Ltd., we understand the significance of a well-prepared submission letter in your application process. A well-prepared submission letter is a critical part of the application. It provides a heartfelt explanation of your intentions, your family history, and your unwavering commitment to your parents’ well-being in in Canada.

Income Requirements
Meeting Income Requirements
One of the crucial aspects of sponsorship is demonstrating your ability to financially support your parents and grandparents. You must provide proof that you meet the income requirements for the three tax years preceding your application.

Sponsorship Agreement
The sponsorship agreement outlines your responsibility to provide for the basic needs of your sponsored family members. It also states that the person you sponsor will make every effort to support themselves and their family members.

Financial Commitment
When sponsoring your parents and grandparents, you commit to financially supporting them for 20 years, starting from their date of becoming permanent residents. This commitment also involves repaying any provincial social assistance they may receive during this period.
