  1. How long does family sponsorship take in Canada? The processing time for family sponsorship applications in Canada can vary depending on several factors, including the type of sponsorship and the country of residence of the sponsored family member. It's important to note that processing times are subject to change, and the information provided here is based on general trends and may not reflect the current processing times. The two main categories for family sponsorship in Canada are: 1. Spouse, Common-Law Partner, or Conjugal Partner Sponsorship: • Inland Sponsorship (when the sponsored person is already in Canada): The current estimated processing time for most inland sponsorship applications is around 12 to 17 months. • Outland Sponsorship (when the sponsored person is outside Canada): The current estimated processing time for most outlandsponsorshipapplicationsis around 9 to 11 months. 2. Parent and Grandparent Sponsorship: • Parent and Grandparent Program (PGP): The PGP operates through an invitation-based system. In recent years, the processing times for PGP applications have been subject to significant delays. The government has introduced changes to the program to address the backlog and reduce processing times. However, the exact processing time will depend on the specific invitation round and the number of applications being processed. It's advisable to check the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) website for the most up-to-date information on PGP processing times. It's important to keep in mind that these processing times are average estimates and can vary depending on factors such as the completeness of the application, the volume of applications received, and the complexity of the case. Delays can occur due to various reasons, including the need for additional documentation, security checks, or interview requirements. To obtain the most accurate and up-to-date processing times for family sponsorship applications, it's recommended to regularly check the IRCC website or contact the IRCC Call Centre or a qualified immigration professional for the latest information.
