An old English proverb says, “Love your neighbour, yet pull not down your hedge.” In the case of Canada and the USA, it can be very difficult for immigrants to hop over that hedge. If you are part of a binational couple, applying for permanent residency in Canada can be daunting.
Fortunately, Ivan Steele Law can help!
The firm's informational guide outlines the steps you as a Canadian citizen or permanent resident must take to sponsor your American spouse or common-law partner. Despite their close proximity and cultural similarities, bringing a loved one from the USA to Canada can be a confusing and paper-intensive process.

The law firm can help you and your partner navigate the complex immigration process. You can learn how to qualify as a Canadian sponsor, and how to prove you have a genuine relationship. The author also explains the differences between filing your application inland or filing it outside of Canada.
First, the author lists the requirements to be a sponsor. You must have valid Canadian citizenship or permanent residency, not be in prison, not receive welfare, not be in default of a family court order, and not be charged with a serious crime.
Next, the guide highlights the importance of proving a valid relationship. Immigration officers have the discretion to balance the probabilities that a Canadian-American couple is legitimate and may consider factors such as previous marriages, age differences, children in common, cohabitation, and joint accounts.
Finally, the report discusses where you should file your spousal sponsorship application. You and your partner have the option to live separately in your home countries until permanent residency is granted. In some cases, if you are already cohabitating in Canada, you can apply from within the country. Additionally, your partner may be eligible for an open work permit while he or she waits for permanent residency.
The firm specializes in reuniting Canadians with their American partners. Canadian marriage visas and permanent residency applications involve complex family, taxation, estate, and immigration laws, but the experts at Ivan Steele Law can help you submit a complete application that is more likely to be approved.
