How Do I Get A Free Sponsorship To Canada?

To get a free sponsorship in Canada, you only need a Canadian citizen or permanent resident who is either a parent, spouse, conjugal partner, or child over 18 years old residing in Canada. And if you don’t have anyone in Canada, don’t worry, because there is another way and we will explain it at some point in this article.

Canada is one of the best and most beautiful countries in the world, it is considered by many to be a haven for those seeking a fresh start and greener pastures. It is also one of the most peaceful countries in the world today. Each year, Canada creates over 100,000 job openings for immigrants and citizens, and if you find that a job is your thing, you can always move to Canada to find one.

Thousands of immigrants settle in Canada every year through various immigration programs, including sponsorship from close relatives, family members, partners, and even employers. It is not very easy to find a sponsor in Canada because there are few people who can sponsor you in Canada.

Canada understands the importance of family, that’s why family sponsorship was created. Through this program, Canadian citizens and permanent residents whose families reside outside Canada are allowed to bring their parents and family members to Canada.

Who can be sponsored?

Only a few people in Canada are allowed to sponsor you to Canada, including your close relatives and family members who are Canadian citizens and permanent residents living in Canada, a conjugal partner or spouse who is a permanent resident or citizen, and by extension an employer in Canada who wishes to hire an International Skilled Worker who is in the Express Entry group. However, the employer must first ensure that no Canadian citizen or permanent resident can fill the vacancy.

What are the requirements to become a sponsor?

Employment Sponsorship

This is another great way to get sponsorship in Canada if you don’t have parents in Canada. And I will show you the best ways to do it. Canadian employers and companies are allowed to hire international workers when they are short of workers and no Canadian citizen or permanent resident can fill the position.

The difficult task here is to find a Canadian employer who is willing to hire you, as your country’s certificate may not have any value in Canada, or at least to the employer. Read on to find out how to get an employer to sponsor you.

How do I find an employer to sponsor me?

You may not know it, but there are many Canadian employers, even in your country, who are currently recruiting foreign workers. All you have to do is look in the right place. Find a Canadian embassy in your country, visit them and ask if any companies are currently recruiting foreign workers or if there are any job fairs organized by Canadian-based companies for your area.

Some universities in your home country may also hold job fairs from time to time in which Canadian companies may participate. So try to find out if there are any in your program of study.

There are also specific companies and programs in Canada through which Canadian employers can hire newcomers or foreign workers in Canada. So, to get in touch with your potential Canadian employer who will most likely sponsor you, you should register for these programs.
