Parent or Grandparent

You can sponsor your biological or adoptive parents and grandparents.

In case of divorce or separation, you can sponsor your parents’ and your grandparents’ spouses, or conjugal or common-law partners.

In your application to sponsor your parents, you can include your brothers and sisters, or half brothers and sisters, if they qualify as dependent children.

Inadmissibility

Parent/Grandparent must not be inadmissible to Canada

Your parents and grandparents and their dependants:

  • won’t be allowed to enter or stay in Canada because their health condition might cause an excessive demand on health or social services;
  • are not allowed to enter or stay in Canada because they have committed or been convicted of a crime. That crime may have occurred in or outside Canada.
