I Just Got Married. Does That Mean My Spouse Can Come To Canada Now?

You just got married. Now what? At Contreras Law, we know how exciting it is to start a life together and we are committed to helping you get the best start.

By leveraging our extensive experience helping newlywed couples find the right immigration solutions, we can provide you with the guidance that you need to get started on your happily ever after.

Helping You Avoid Critical Mistakes

A critical mistake that couples often make is to underestimate the duration of the spousal sponsorship process. It can be dangerous and detrimental to make assumptions regarding entry to Canada, even if you are legally married.

As lawyers, we caution clients against assuming that marriage means expedited entry. In our commitment to transparency, we take the time to explain what to expect throughout the process so that you can plan accordingly. While it might be tempting to pack your bags and settle affairs in your home country in anticipation of what’s next, it is important to understand that the immigration process takes time.

Our Attention To Detail Makes A Difference

When it comes to applying to bring a new spouse to Canada, attention to detail is critical. Our job is to guide you through the application process and to handle the legal requirements so that you leave nothing to chance.

We are dedicated to advocating on your behalf and to ensuring that your case is accurately and fairly represented. We are keenly aware of what the government needs, what they expect, and how to fulfill their requirements. We also have a deep understanding of what raises red flags and what needs to be done to take a proactive approach.

“Johann is very professional. He represented us with our application for Sponsoring a Spouse. He was helpful and open to answer all our questions even after we applied. The result of our application was positive, and we can’t thank him enough. For these reasons, we have chosen to keep him as our representative for our Citizenship applications.”

“I found Johann to be very professional, hardworking, conscientious, courteous, friendly, approachable, available and honest. His out of the box and unconventional thinking has helped me deal with my permanent residence application, in the most efficient way possible.”

“I would highly recommend Mr. Johann Contreras without any reservations as I personally believe he is a model lawyer who genuinely provided consistently outstanding services and managed to rise above and beyond all expectations.”

“I met Johann when I got stuck, and was struggling, from the decline of my BCPNP application (which took more than 2 years after submission). I was hopeless because no one around me said it could be reversed. I contacted many lawyers, and I received only one response, which was Johann. After the first meeting, everything was so quick. I was shocked, due to the (previous) reaction and attitude of BCPNP. Johann made them (become) more careful and quick. In a week, I received my new BCPNP. He reversed it. I cannot thank him enough. I definitely recommend Johann to anybody who needs help and a quick solution regarding immigration. He is the one.”

“If you are looking for a lawyer who will go above and beyond the call of duty and will have your best interest at heart and not his wallet, then Johann Contreras is the man for you. He won my case and helped me keep my Co-operative Housing Association membership. His main concern was helping me keep my home and not how I was going to pay him for doing that. I recommend him, 100%. If it weren’t for him then I would probably be homeless right now. He was well worth every cent and more! Thanks again Johann!”

“Johann Contreras (Contreras Law) provided to me legal support for a fairly complex citizenship process. He was knowledgeable, thorough and responsive, and the ultimate objective (i.e. Canadian citizenship) was successfully achieved. I would recommend his services to anybody in need of Canadian immigration and citizenship law legal support.”
