A sponsored spouse or partner who is in Canada, holds valid status, and has received an Acknowledgement of Receipt for the sponsorship application may be eligible for a Spousal Open Work Permit. As of June 2026 this option, under a public policy that also covers outland applicants present in Canada, is extended through December 31, 2026. Because the rules and codes change, confirm current eligibility on the IRCC website before applying.<\/div>\r\n          <\/details>\r\n          <details>\r\n            <summary>How long does spousal sponsorship take?<span class=\"ic\">+<\/span><\/summary>\r\n            <div class=\"ans\">It depends on the class and destination. As of IRCC's June 8, 2026 figures, processing was around 26 months for inland and about 16 months for outland applications outside Quebec, with Quebec-destined files taking longer. Processing times are updated frequently \u2014 always check the live IRCC processing-times tool for your current estimate, and submit a complete application to avoid delays.<\/div>\r\n          <\/details>\r\n          <details>\r\n            <summary>What does the sponsorship undertaking commit me to?<span class=\"ic\">+<\/span><\/summary>\r\n            <div class=\"ans\">By signing the undertaking you promise to financially support the person you sponsor and to repay any social assistance they receive during the undertaking period. For a spouse, common-law, or conjugal partner this period is 3 years in provinces other than Quebec, starting when they become a permanent resident. It remains in force even if your relationship breaks down or your finances change. Quebec administers its own undertaking with different terms.<\/div>\r\n          <\/details>\r\n          <details>\r\n            <summary>How do we prove our relationship is genuine?<span class=\"ic\">+<\/span><\/summary>\r\n            <div class=\"ans\">There's no single required document. Strong applications combine items that span the relationship \u2014 proof of cohabitation, joint finances, photos together over time, communication history, travel records, and letters of support \u2014 so they corroborate each other and tell a consistent story. The goal is to show the relationship is real and not entered into mainly for immigration purposes.<\/div>\r\n          <\/details>\r\n          <details>\r\n            <summary>Can I sponsor my partner if I live outside Canada?<span class=\"ic\">+<\/span><\/summary>\r\n            <div class=\"ans\">Canadian citizens living abroad may be able to sponsor if they show they will return to live in Canada once their partner becomes a permanent resident. Permanent residents, however, must be living in Canada to sponsor. Eligibility depends on your specific circumstances, so it's worth confirming with IRCC or a licensed consultant.<\/div>\r\n          <\/details>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n      <\/section>\r\n\r\n      <!-- ===== CTA ===== -->\r\n      <section class=\"bgsps__cta bgsps__reveal\">\r\n        <div class=\"bgsps__cta-text\">\r\n          <p class=\"bgsps__cta-eyebrow\">Talk to a Licensed Expert<\/p>\r\n          <h2>Ready to reunite with your spouse or partner?<\/h2>\r\n          <p>Our licensed immigration consultants (RCICs regulated by the CICC) can confirm your eligibility, choose the right inland or outland route, and help you build a well-documented application.<\/p>\r\n          <div class=\"bgsps__cta-row\">\r\n            <a href=\"#book\" class=\"bgsps__btn bgsps__btn--primary\">\r\n              Book a Consultation\r\n              <svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2.5\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><path d=\"M5 12h14M13 6l6 6-6 6\"\/><\/svg>\r\n            <\/a>\r\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/broadgate.ca\/free-immigration-assessment\/\" class=\"bgsps__btn bgsps__btn--ghost\">Free Assessment<\/a>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <div class=\"bgsps__cta-media\">\r\n          <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/broadgate.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chosen_transparent-2-scaled.png\" alt=\"BroadGate founder\" loading=\"lazy\">\r\n        <\/div>\r\n      <\/section>\r\n\r\n    <\/div>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<script>\r\n\/* Reveal-on-scroll.
