Groups of five
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 group of five applications.
You can’t submit other applications right now as a group of five. We will continue to process applications that have already been submitted.
Groups of five or more Canadians 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, you’ll need to:
- make sure they already have refugee status
- create a settlement plan
- prove you can support them financially
