Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
Add-on - Application to sponsor a spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner or dependent child (CIO)
When you have a sponsorship application in process, a
family member of the person being sponsored could be added at a later date, even if they were listed as a non-accompanying dependant in the initial application.
To do so, we invite you to send your add-on request through the
IRCC webform available on our website. You can attach the following forms and documents in the field reserved to that effect:
and
- The add-on requestincluding:
- your name,
- your client ID number/UCI,
- your file number,
- a detailed letter of explanation,
- a copy of the birth certificate, marriage certificate or proof of common-law relationship, and
- if applicable, the proof of payment.
Useful tips
- If the newly eligible family member is a spouse, common-law partner or dependent child who is already a permanent resident or Canadian citizen, only the add-on request is required.
- Please ensure to write ADD-ON on the add-on request.
- If your application is already being processed abroad, you should send a copy of the documents indicated above to the visa officeresponsible.
We hope that this information will facilitate the process of family reunification.
Your add-on request will be evaluated by the responsible office. You will be contacted when a decision will be made or if further information is required.
