Family Sponsor Details

[cypriyan]

Hi Leon,

Would appreciate your assistance on the following issue.

I have my Aunt ( Mother’s Sister ) in Canada, she is a citizen of Canada for 40+ years now. At present she is not employed but she has enough money that she does not require to do a job and takes care of her old parents.

The concern is, I want to know if she can sponsor visa to my Fiancee ( Not Married Yet ) for coming to Canada, Currently my fiancée is working in Dubai in a hospital as Medical transcriptionist. Kindly let me know the procedure and also the charges and the duration of the process. Also is IELTS exam required for this case.


Thanks & Regards
Cypriyan

It sounds like you are asking about a TRV (tourist visa) for your fiancee. If so, you should post your question to the Visitor section of the forum to get the best answers.

This section of the forum is for Canadians who are sponsoring family members for permanent residency.

If she wants to work in Canada then she will first have to obtain a full time job offer from an employer in Canada. Next, the employer will have to obtain an approved LMIA (permission to hire a foreign worker). Once your fiancee has the job offer and approved LMIA, she will be able to apply for a closed work permit.
