The process of immigration to
Canada serves as a foundation for sustained economic growth and brings customs,
traditions and people from different cultures together. There are a wide range
of options available for workers from different parts of the world to come to
Canada and embrace a better living standards.
A few most popular Canadian Immigration options are explained below:
Live and work in Canada as a Skilled Worker
Express Entry is one of the
finest and most popular application process designed for those skilled
immigrants who wish to settle down in Canada on a permanent basis and take part
in Canada's economy. EE manage applications of skilled workers for permanent
residence under three federal economic immigration programs, including:
- Federal Skilled
Worker Program
- Federal Trades
Worker Program
- Canadian
Experience Class
· The first step is to qualify for
Express Entry for which you may take a free
profile assessment online and answer a few questions to understand whether you
meet the minimum eligibility requirements or not. You need to submit documents,
like your language test results, ECA report, passport, etc. to confirm your
eligible for Express Entry and then you must submit your profile to provide
required information about yourself to the IRCC.
If you are found to be eligible, the
IRCC will accept you into our EE pool of candidates and you will be ranked in
the pool using a points-based system on the basis of information entered in
your profile.
Accordingly, the IRCC will send
invitations to apply for Canada PR to the candidates who have highest scores in
the pool and the invited candidates will get maximum 60 days time to submit their
application for permanent residency.
Please note, your occupation must fall under relevant skilled
occupation list for Canada to qualify.
Live and work in a particular Canadian Province or territory
Another way to move to Canada is
by immigrating as a provincial nominee through specific Provincial Nominee
Program (PNP). This program is for those workers who have the required skills,
education and experience to contribute to a specific provincial or territorial economy
and have a desire to live in a particular province by becoming permanent
residents of Canada.
Each Canadian province or
territory has its own immigration programs and streams that focuses on inviting
certain groups and have their own set of requirements to select candidates
including, students, skilled workers, semi-skilled workers and business people.
You can apply under PNP using a paper-based as well as an online process via Express Entry and
must pass a medical examination and obtain a police clearance certificate as a
mandatory requirement.
In a paper-based process you may
apply to the province of your choice for nomination via a non-Express Entry
stream and meet the eligibility requirements. Once you get a nomination, you may
submit a paper based application for PR to the IRCC and your application will
be processed within 12-18 months time.
While, in case of online Express
Entry process, you create an Express Entry profile and show your interest of
moving to a province or territory. If a province sends you a NOI or
notification of interest to EE your account, you can contact them directly and apply
for provincial nomination to their particular Express Entry aligned stream.
Upon your nomination approval, you'll get additional 600 points against your
overall CRS score along with an
assurance to obtain an ITA for Canada PR in upcoming EE round of invitations.
Study and work in Canada as an international student
Canada offer opportunities like, work
while you are studying, help your spouse or partner get a valid work permit
while you are studying, work on a temporary basis or stay permanently once you complete
your graduation as an international student.
After Express Entry and PNP, one
of most popular immigration process for
Canada is to live and work in Canada after you graduate on a work permit. The
work experience you gain in Canada will eventually help you in qualifying for permanent
residency.
You qualify to apply for PR
through Canadian Experience Class under Express Entry provided you have gained
minimum 12 months of full-time or equal part-time experience in any one of the
NOCs, i.e. Skill Level O, A or B and have obtained minimum CLB 7 or above in English
or French language skills.

Canadian PR holder or citizen, then you can move to Canada under Family
Sponsorship program and can live, study or work in Canada once you become
permanent resident.
Certain relatives can come to
Canada on a sponsorship, provided a sponsor is:
