PERMANENT RESIDENCY

Canadian Permanent Residency (PR) allows foreign nationals to live, work, and study in Canada indefinitely, with access to many social benefits. Our team of Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants (RCICs) at Green Acres Immigration provides expert guidance to navigate the PR application process, ensuring compliance with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) requirements.

Pathways to Permanent Residency

Canada offers several programs for permanent residency, including:

  • Express Entry: A points-based system for skilled workers, including the Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program, and Canadian Experience Class.

  • Family Sponsorship: For eligible family members sponsored by Canadian citizens or permanent residents.

  • Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs): Tailored streams for workers nominated by provinces based on local labor needs.

  • Business Immigration: For entrepreneurs, investors, or self-employed individuals contributing to Canada’s economy.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility varies by program, but general IRCC requirements include:

  • Meet program-specific criteria (e.g., education, work experience, language proficiency for Express Entry)

  • Demonstrate sufficient funds to support yourself and accompanying family members (if required)

  • Be in good health, with a medical examination if requested

  • Provide a clean criminal record, with a police certificate if required

  • Be admissible to Canada, with no criminal, security, or immigration violations

  • Submit a valid travel document with at least six months’ validity

Application Process

The PR application process depends on the chosen pathway. Key steps include:

  • Eligibility Assessment: Confirm you meet the requirements for the selected program.

  • Submit Documents: Provide a valid travel document, proof of education, work experience, language test results (if applicable), financial documents, and other IRCC-specified materials.

  • Biometrics: Submit fingerprints and a photo at a designated collection point if required.

  • Additional Steps: Some applicants may need medical exams, police certificates, or interviews.

  • Pay Fees: Cover application and biometrics fees, which vary by program.

Processing times differ by program and country of residence, typically ranging from months to over a year. Check IRCC for updates.
