The Family Categories of immigration are aimed at bringing families together. There are effectively two different types of family programs; those offered by the Federal Government, and those offered under Provincial Nominee Programs by the government of Manitoba.

  • Spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner

  • Dependent children

  • your father, mother, grandfather or grandmother

  • your orphaned brother, sister, nephew, niece, grandson or granddaughter, who is under the age of 18, and not married or in a common-law relationship

  • a child you plan to adopt (international adoption)

To be able to Sponsor a family member, the sponsoring individual must:

  • be a Canadian citizen or Canadian permanent resident,

  • must demonstrate the financial ability to provide the Family Sponsorship Immigrant and dependents with their essential needs (should they be unable to provide for themselves,

  • enter into an agreement with the Government of Canada, whereby he or she agrees to provide the essential needs for a prescribed period of time; Physical residency in Canada; or
