Immigrate

Live and work as a permanent resident, reunite with your loved ones in Canada, or become a proud Canadian citizen.

Permanent Residency

  • The Express Entry Program is a points-based system for skilled workers who would like to be permanent residents.

    There are 3 immigration programs under Express Entry:

    • Federal Skilled Worker Program

    • Federal Skilled Trades Program

    • Canadian Experience Class

  • The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) allows provinces and territories to nominate individuals with the skills and experience needed to fill specific labour market gaps. Successful nominees receive a provincial nomination certificate, which can help them to obtain permanent residency in Canada.

    This program may linked to “Express Entry” or “Non-Express Entry” streams.

  • Apply to renew your Permanent Resident (PR) card nine months before its expiry or if it has recently expired in order to maintain your PR status in Canada.

Family Sponsorship

  • Canadian citizens and Permanent Residents can sponsor their spouse, common-law partner, or dependent children to come and live with them in Canada.

  • Canadian citizens and Permanent Residents can sponsor their parent or grandparent to come and live with them in Canada.
