FAMILY SPONSORSHIP

At Barbican Immigration, we specialize in Spousal Sponsorship and Family Sponsorship applications — helping couples reunite in Canada quickly and confidently. Whether you are sponsoring your wife, sponsoring your husband, common-law partner, same-sex partner, or conjugal partner, our team ensures that your application is not only complete, but also compelling, accurate, and strategically presented.

​

We understand that bringing your loved one to Canada is one of the most emotional and important immigration journeys you’ll ever make. Our detailed, evidence-based approach helps eliminate doubts, reduce processing delays, and avoid unnecessary interviews.

​

Who Can Sponsor a Spouse or Partner in Canada

​

To be eligible to sponsor your spouse, common-law, or conjugal partner, you must:

• Be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident aged 18 or older

• Demonstrate that your relationship is genuine and ongoing

• Not be in default of previous sponsorships, court orders, or immigration undertakings

• Prove that you can financially support your partner without relying on social assistance

• ​

If you meet these basic criteria, you can sponsor your partner inland (while they are inside Canada) or outland (while they are outside Canada).

​

Inland vs. Outland Sponsorship

​

Inland Sponsorship allows your partner to remain in Canada while the application is processed.

• Official processing times can take up to 36 weeks, but our clients often receive approvals within 7–8 months due to the quality and completeness of our submissions.

• In many cases, your spouse may also apply for an open work permit during the process, allowing them to work in Canada while waiting for a decision.

​

Outland Sponsorship is for couples where one partner lives outside Canada.

• Although the IRCC processing timeline varies by country, many of our outland sponsorships have been approved in as little as 3–4 months when properly prepared.

• A well-documented and clearly explained application can significantly reduce wait times and avoid interview requests.

​

Our Expertise: Building Strong, Interview-Free Applications

Many applicants believe that following the IRCC document checklist is enough — but that’s a common mistake. Immigration officers assess not only the documents you submit, but also the story your evidence tells.

​

At Barbican Immigration, we go far beyond the checklist. We help you:

• Demonstrate your genuine relationship through a detailed timeline, shared experiences, and emotional connection

• Include letters from family and friends recognizing your relationship

• Prepare proof of shared responsibilities, such as finances, property, communication history, and photos

• Build a cohesive narrative that eliminates any doubt for the immigration officer

​

We take pride in the fact that none of our spousal sponsorship applications have ever been called for an interview — because we anticipate and address every question before the officer ever needs to ask.

​

Types of Relationships We Work With

​

Our team expertly handles sponsorships for all types of relationships:

​

• Married couples — Legally married couples with valid marriage certificates recognized in Canada or abroad.

• Common-law partners — Couples who have lived together in a conjugal relationship for at least 12 consecutive months and can provide evidence of shared life and commitment.

• Conjugal partners — Couples who cannot live together or marry due to legal, cultural, or other serious barriers but can prove a genuine, committed relationship over time.

​

No matter your situation, our approach is personalized, thorough, and fully compliant with IRCC standards.
