The Canada Dependent Visa allows you to bring your dependents to Canada and also allows them to work or study full time once they have the relevant permits.
Applicants must have a valid passport. The sponsor must have adequate financial resources to support the dependents. Work and income proof of the sponsor. Medical examination and evidence of adequate insurance for dependents.
The documentation required for sponsoring a dependent under the Canada Dependent Visa includes:
- Passport & travel history.
- Background documentation.
- Spouse/partner documentation including marriage certificate.
- Other proof of relationship.
- Income proof of sponsor to show adequate finances.
It should take roughly 3 months after submission of all the paperwork for the interview to be held at the Embassy of Canada where the dependent resides. After this, it is more or less waiting for the Visa to be stamped on the Passport.
