Bulgaria to Canada Spousal Sponsorship
Last updated: January, 2026
If you’re sponsoring a spouse, common-law partner, or conjugal partner from Bulgaria, IRCC requires only the standard spousal sponsorship forms. There are no Bulgaria-specific additional forms or document instructions beyond the general requirements.
Between 2016 and 2025, our Toronto immigration consultants assisted 124 clients from Bulgaria. This experience helps ensure files are prepared accurately and in line with IRCC’s expectations, reducing unnecessary delays. If you’d like a full overview, you can visit our Spousal Sponsorship page, review our fees page, and book a consultation for guidance tailored to your situation.
