There are a number of ways in which you or your family
member may be eligible for immigration to Canada. However, each route has its own requirements and preparations. Review
the following categories for eligibility requirements and an outline of the steps in the immigration process.
PERMANENT RESIDENCE
Before applying for your Canadian citizenship, you must first become a permanent resident of Canada. There are several
categories or classes under which you can apply for a permanent residence visa. Each category has unique requirements and
application processes. Choose the class below that best suits your current situation.
For those foreign professionals or skilled tradespeople who offer skills and experience that would be valuable to the
Canadian economy/workforce.
For those Canadian citizens or permanent residents who wish to sponsor a spouse/partner, parent, grandparent, or child
for permanent residence.
For those foreign business professionals, such as managers and business owners, who are interested in coming to Canada to
establish a business or invest in the Canadian economy.
For those seeking safe haven in Canada due to a well-founded fear of persecution or cruel punishment in their country of nationality.

to make application for permanent residence.
For those wishing to appeal a negative design by Citizenship and Immigration Canada or by the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada.
