Family-based humanitarian program for Colombians, Haitians and Venezuelans

This program will create another migration option to Canada. We will welcome up to 11,000 people who have family in Canada, and:

• are nationals of Colombia, Haiti or Venezuela, and
• currently live in South or Central America, Mexico or the Caribbean, and
• whose family member in Canada is:
  • a Canadian citizen or permanent resident
  • your spouse, common-law partner, child (of any age), grandchild, parent, grandparent, or sibling
  • willing to support your application
• If you’re a national of one of these countries, this is a regular and safe way to come to Canada.

Fees: none

•  waive the Right of Permanent Residence Fee, all application fees and biometric fees
