🍁 In Simple Terms
Filing a family class sponsorship costs $75, and it is due the moment the application goes in, not later. It sits on top of the applicant's own processing fee, which the sponsor also pays at the same time. It is a small line item next to the rest, but the application is not properly filed without it.
Affects: Foreign nationals and permanent residents in Canada
Legal Text: IRPR Regulation 304
(1)A fee of $75 is payable for processing a sponsorship application under Part 7.
