Some community organizations can sponsor refugees abroad to come live in Canada permanently. This means you’ll support them emotionally and financially, usually for 1 year.

To sponsor a refugee, your community organization must:

  • make sure they already have refugee status
  • create a settlement plan
  • prove you have the money to support them

Other organizations and individuals can also partner with you as co–sponsors.
