family reunification policies

Family reunification policies are laws and guidelines that allow family members separated due to immigration or refugee circumstances to live together in the same country. Typically, these policies enable citizens or permanent residents to sponsor their immediate relatives, such as spouses, children, and sometimes parents or siblings. The goal is to strengthen family units and support individuals who have faced displacement or migration. Each country has its own rules for determining eligibility, processing times, and required documentation, which can vary widely based on immigration status and family relationships.
