Types of legal residence in Canada

There are many so-called immigration programs in Canada. Each such immigration program represents a specific set of requirements and procedures required for a candidate to go through the immigration process and obtain an immigrant visa. Distinguish between federal and provincial immigration programs to Canada.

Federal programs operate throughout Canada, without being tied to a specific province (except for Quebec). Provincial programs are geared to the requirements of specific provinces and are designed so that an immigrant is most likely to stay in a particular province.

Canada Immigration Application Form

Skilled Workers can complete the Express Entry Profile online if they want to expedite the process of moving to Canada. This questionnaire contains information about you, your language skills, and your work experience. Once you have completed your Express Entry profile, you will also need to register with the Government of Canada Job Bank (unless you already have a job offer).

For many other programs (immigration to Quebec, start-up visa, family sponsorship, etc.), you will have to send documents by email.

 

Fee payment

The processing fee also differs depending on the immigration program. For example, the Express Entry application fee for an individual will be C $ 550. However, if you are bringing both your husband/wife and your child, the total application fee will be C $ 1250. Make sure you pay the fee in full, otherwise your application will not be processed.

You also need to purchase private health insurance to provide coverage for up to three months after you arrive in Canada. This is very important because medicine without insurance is very expensive here. Insurance companies will vary depending on your province.

If you came to Canada as a refugee, then you can be protected by the Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP) and you do not need to purchase private insurance. Everyone else must purchase private health insurance until they receive a public health insurance card.

Before moving to Canada, you need to decide on housing options, since this can be done using the Internet. Find a place to live that matches your income level. Keep in mind that you will have many other expenses, so you need to make sure that you have the money to pay the rent with a margin – for several months in advance.
