Family comes first---and Canada understands that. The Spousal and Family Sponsorship Program allows Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor their spouse, common-law partner, dependent children, or parents and grandparents to join them in Canada.
At K7 Immigration, we specialize in making this emotional journey smooth, fast, and stress-free. Our process is managed by a licensed RCIC (Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant) who personally handles every case with care and attention.
