A Fleeting Glance at Canada Immigration, Visa and Citizenship

by Abhinav Outsourcings

As it is well-known, Canada, the Maple Country, is one of the globe/s leading immigration destinations (apparently, it enjoys a position in the top 5). Every year, the country's concerned visa and immigration organization--Citizenship and Immigration Canada (the CIC)--registers more than 200,000 visitors.
Immigration to Canada is the procedure, via which individuals shift to the country, to live there. Most of the people--after getting a Canada Visa or Canada Permit of their choice & preference--try to acquire the prized Canadian citizenship, and become citizens, for understandable reasons.

Citizenship of the Maple Countryalso famed as the 'Land of Milk & Honey'-- is characteristically pocketed, via birth in the country, birth overseas when not less than 1 parent enjoys citizenship of Canada and was born or naturalized there, or through adoption overseas by not less than 1 citizen of the nation.
The same may also be offered to an individual, who enjoys permanent residency status, has resided in the country for not less than 1095 days out of 4 years, before filing a petition, can work using the English or French language & sails through a test for national knowledge. Available data suggests that nearly 170,000 permanent residents acquire the nation's citizenship status every year.

In view of the widespread and growing interest of the world migrants in movement to the country, the country's Federal & Provincial administrations are continually bringing-in fresh regulations and schemes to effect positive resettlement for the world migrants, under a variety of easy-to-follow visa-categories.

Consequently, several wonderful immigration and visa options exist under which the migrants from across the globe could arrive and reside in the nation with the most accepted being Skilled Worker Visa, Business/Investor Visa, Study Visa, The Visitor Visa or TRV (Temporary Resident Permit), Family Class Visa, etc.

Perhaps, the trained worker category is the most widely used Canadian visa course employed for the object of movement to the nation even while this points-based visa-scheme is especially framed for those overseas people, who possess high levels of expertise & knowledge in a given field, which could be much in demand in the country.

Immigration to the nation also covers a special permit class for the immigrants who come under the business category. The CIC also permits Quebec (one of the key national provinces) to choose migrants, according to its own specific requirements. Much remarkably, 40% of the yearly immigration made to the country is carried-out under its refugee & family reunion schemes.
