Sponsoring your family

Spouses, partners and dependent children

I was deported from Canada and I returned without getting proper permission. Can I apply as a permanent resident under the public policy for the Spouse or Common-law Partner in Canada Class?

Your application will be refused because you do not have permission to be in Canada. You may be able to be sponsored from abroad if you return to your home country.
