How to apply for / sponsor your children

To apply for the Canada children sponsorship application, you need to follow the below steps.

  • Check eligibility:
    Before applying for your Canadian child, the visa you need to check the sponsor (living in Canada on the PR or Citizenship) and the child being sponsored meets eligibility requirements. Once you are sure about the eligibility, you can proceed to the second step.

  • Gather your documents:
    The documents and forms requirements may vary from case to case. Therefore, prepare your documents very carefully; if you submit your incomplete application, CIC will return your application without assessing, and the fee will not be refundable.
    Please coordinate with our experience consultant for professional guidance to know more about documents and forms.

  • Apply for a Canada Child visa:
    Once you are ready with all applicable forms and documents, you can submit both applications (Sponsorship and Canada child PR application) by paying the appropriate fee. You also need to provide biometrics, PCC, and medical as well.

  • Canada child visa decision:
    CIC will assess your application and do security and background checks. If the evaluation turns out to be positive, your child’s visa will be approved. Still, if CIC finds any ground to believe that you have submitted fake documents to claim your relationship or Income, etc., your application will be refused. You may be banned from sponsoring any future application.
