How The Spousal Sponsorship Brampton Program Works

By Linda Cole


The good news about foreigners who have found the love of their lives in the form of a Canadian citizen would be that they can become a Canadian citizen by having the spouse sponsor the application. This application is also known as the spousal sponsorship brampton program and it is a program that allows Canadian citizen to be with their foreigner partners. If one is interested, here are a few facts to know of.

Although it may sound simple enough, it is not such a simple application process as there would be criteria to fill and some conditions. So before anything else, it is crucial to know the criteria for being an applicant so one will know if he or she will be able to even pass the first step. If he or she cannot even pass the first step, then it is better to just find another way for his or her partner to move into the country.

The very first condition that one would have to fulfill would be proof of actual citizenship or permanent residency by showing a birth certificate or a passport. From there, one will have to verify his or her age to show that he or she is eighteen or above. Lastly, one has to show financial capability of taking on the sponsorship which includes proof of not being a beneficiary of any government aid program.

Finally, one must not have any type of criminal record as per the government. If one has a record of a violent crime or sexual related offense, then most likely the application will already be denied. Also, chance of the application passing will go down if one has a history of conviction or imprisonment.

Now, a very common question that is asked is if whether one can sponsor his or her fiance. The good news is that the program not only reaches out to those who are legally married but also those who are not yet married. This is referred to as a common law partnership and is also covered by the program provided that the couple has been in a serious relationship for more than a year and are planning to marry.

Now, showing proof of a relationship or a marriage can be a bit tricky because it entails a lot of documentation. Not only marriage certificates or affidavits are needed but also photos, messages, call history, and testimonials in a one year period are needed. For married couples, possibly documents on bank accounts, household titles, and credit lines are needed.

Now, one may also be asking whether LGBT couples are allowed to apply for this sponsorship program. Yes, they are actually recognized as actual couples, both married and common law partners. Take note that the same terms and conditions are extended to them wherein they have to prove that they are serious with their partners by showing documentation.

If one would want to apply for the program, take note of these things. Remember that it is a long and tricky process. So if one wants to go for it, he or she should be mentally prepared for that.
