Community sponsors
We’re only accepting applications to sponsor Sudanese refugees
Starting April 30, 2025, we’ll accept 160 applications from groups of five and community sponsors to sponsor Sudanese refugees. A refugee status determination document is not required.
We aren’t accepting other community sponsor applications.
You can’t submit other applications right now as a community sponsor. We will continue to process applications that have already been submitted.
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.
