Re: need help

When did you last sponsor a person to come to Canada?
What was the duration of the agreement?

Re: need help

In your first post you said "sponsor my boyfriend" and "i have decided to marry him".
But now you say you have married him already.

If you have already been through the sponsorship process twice, you should know the requirements for a sponsor.

To be a sponsor:

You and the sponsored relative must sign a sponsorship agreement that commits you to provide financial support for your relative, if necessary.
This agreement also says the person becoming a permanent resident will make every effort to support her or himself.
You must provide financial support for a spouse, common-law or conjugal partner for three years from the date they become a permanent resident.
You must provide financial support for a dependent child for 10 years, or until the child turns 25, whichever comes first.

You may not be eligible to be a sponsor if you:

failed to provide financial support you agreed to when you signed a sponsorship agreement to sponsor another relative in the past,
defaulted on a court-ordered support order, such as alimony or child support,
received government financial assistance for reasons other than a disability,
were convicted of a violent criminal offence, any offence against a relative or any sexual offence—depending on circumstances such as the nature of the offence, how long ago it occurred and whether a pardon was issued,
defaulted on an immigration loan—late or missed payments,
are in prison or,
have declared bankruptcy and have not been released from it yet.
