In 2020, an impressive 36,130 newcomers became new permanent residents in Canada under these programs – and another 11,675 more arrived in the first quarter of 2021.

Immigration Minister Marco Mendicino has upped the federal government’s capability to process spousal sponsorships to cut down on waiting times. He has also reiterated Ottawa’s commitment to the program which allows immigrants to come to Canada even during times when the border is closed to non-essential travel.

As the third wave of COVID-19 hit Canada hard in the first quarter of this year, the number of new permanent residents under the spousal sponsorship program fell compared to the same three-month period last year – but only by 14.1 per cent.

In order to sponsor a spouse to become permanent resident of Canada, a sponsor needs to be a citizen or an adult permanent resident of Canada capable of sup
