Bring Your Spouse or Partner to Canada


Apply for Spousal Sponsorship with Cougar Immigration

Love knows no borders—neither should your relationship. If you’re a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, you can sponsor your spouse, common-law, or conjugal partner to live with you in Canada permanently.

At Cougar Immigration, we handle your Spousal Sponsorship application with care, clarity, and expert precision—so you can build a future together without delay.

 

Who You Can Sponsor

Under the Family Class Sponsorship Program, you can sponsor:

  • Your legally married spouse
  • Your common-law partner (must have lived together for at least 12 months)
  • Your conjugal partner (if living together is not possible due to immigration, religious, or social barriers)

Sponsorship can be done through two streams:

  • Inland Sponsorship – if your partner is already living in Canada
  • Outland Sponsorship – if your partner is outside Canada

We help you determine the best stream based on your current circumstances.

 

Eligibility for Sponsors

To sponsor your spouse or partner, you must:

  • Be 18 years or older
  • Be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident
  • Not be under a removal order, bankruptcy, or criminal conviction
  • Be financially stable (though no income minimum is required for spousal sponsorship)
  • Agree to provide basic financial support to your spouse for 3 years

Cougar Immigration ensures both sponsor and applicant meet all IRCC criteria before starting the process.
