Same-sex partners/spouses are also recognized by Canadian law. This would be the Family Class Sponsorship and if you are in Quebec and would like to sponsor someone in your family, you can apply through the Quebec Family Class Program.
It is important to note that common-law spouses, sponsored spouses and conjugal partners should live together in a legitimate relationship with their sponsor for at least 24 months from the day they acquired their PR status or they may lose their status.
