Guidelines – making Provincial Immigration to Canada easier

Labels: , , , , , , , , , ,

Immigration as a process has innumerable facets to it; out of which one is Provincial immigration. As the word suggests, it is settling to a particular province or territory. This kind of immigration is much prevalent in Canada. In provincial immigration to Canada the provinces have an upper hand since they are the ones who nominate the immigrants wishing to settle in their territory. Provincial Nominee Programs commonly known as (PNP) who regulate the provincial immigration process have been set up in most of the provinces of Canada. Those immigrating under the PNP have the required skills and work experience to make a constructive contribution towards their province.

Steps for applying

There are certain steps which a potential migrant needs to follow so as to apply for Provincial immigration:

Provincial Nomination Certificate – If one chooses to immigrate to Canada as a provincial nominee he needs to be nominated by the desired province. So the first step is to apply at the province which after assessing the application on the basis of their immigration needs will provide a certificate which will be directly send to the visa office.

Application Package – After obtaining the provincial nomination certificate it is required on the part of the immigrant to get an application package which consists of an application guide and the forms to be filled in.

Filling in of the forms – This step requires the filling in of the forms honestly and carefully. It is important to complete all the forms regarding application for permanent residence in Canada ; background ; economic classes ; family information as well as use of representative ( optional only if the immigrant wants to use a representative) as incomplete applications will be devoid of processing and will be returned. Once this process has been completed, a print out of it must be brought out from the computer for its submission.

Correct Visa Office –. The immigrant should check out the correct visa office on the basis of his residence or citizenship for submission of the application. It is advised to the immigrants to have a look at the website of the visa office as application procedures vary from one office to another.

Instructions required for the specific visa office – It is important for the immigrant to get hold of all the instructions relating to the health, criminal and security check ups which he along with his dependants will have to undergo at a later stage of the process.

Payment of fees – In this whole process the immigrant has to pay fees for certain things:
  • The processing fee for himself and his dependants at the time of application.
  • The Right of Permanent Residence fee for himself and his accompanying partner if    applicable. It should be paid before the permanent resident visa is issued.
  • For medical examination; language testing; police certificate (if required as part of Criminal and security check up).

Final check of the application – Prior to the submission the immigrant must ensure that all the required documents are attached with the application along with the processing fees. This is important to do, as any blunder will only delay the processing thus adding to the list of worries for the immigrant.

Submitting the application – Once the checking is done the immigrant should submit the application along with the fees at the Canadian visa office.

Granting of the visa

Certain procedures are carried out before the visa is issued to the hopeful applicant. It involves
  • The application assessment process where the CIC (Citizenship and Immigration Canada) officer ensures that all the necessary documentation has been provided with the application.
  • Processing time where the application is put to process by the visa office.
  • Medical examination and security checks so as to ensure no one having a serious health problem or criminal record is allowed to enter.
  • The final decision where the CIC officer decides to grant the visa or not, depending on the immigration requirements, checkups and proof of the documents provided.

Once the application is approved the whole process ends with the issuing of the permanent resident visa containing Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) and entry visa, by the visa office.

Immigration Canada does not spend money on legal counsel

Labels: , , , , , ,

There are people who dream of creating a better future millions of dollars, a better future for them in another country to a new life begins. These people mostly from Third World countries and a new beginning is the most desirable countries to Canada. Unfortunately, they are only about 50,000 to make their dreams reality, each year.

 Why and how to solve? What is the main reason is that they still dream of one year or in the case on behalf of most of the rest of their lives just a dream?

 This is not to say that Canada does not accept them, but rejected their application. The main reason is these people do not have the courage to apply. This is because they do not know, they must submit an application, what documents they need, what they have to submit the application form, then they must pay so much more.

Here's all these legal advisers, immigration consultants, employment agency and recruitment company that provides a very fat reward for their services. In most cases, the reward is the thousands of dollars each applicant to prepare submissions on behalf of the applicant it. Here, I must mention that some of the initial fee is charged, and then they disappear. Of course, there are loyal to companies and agents point charges are too poor to pay the high. So, when we mentioned these two reasons, at the same time, we have the filter from the millions of hundreds of thousands of dreamers who are willing and able to pay such costs.

From this point onwards, we have two groups, those in the cash currency for the application and those who have certain properties and selling them to get the application in cash. I believe my second group represents 85%, which is hundreds of thousands. They usually sell them, hoping in a few months, they and their families will be the country's citizens have the dream. Unfortunately, this is not the reality, the reality is more harsh with them. Usually about a year later, they received, indicating that their application has been rejected the embassy's letter. In refusing, because they are incomplete files, or because they do not qualify for the type of visa they have or because they are in the interview process, if they reach the interview, not far from the case for most. When they got the letter, they are completely destroyed, because they all, they have sold. The conclusion is that the poor poorer, the rich, richer.

Fortunately, there is a solution to this problem. Even the Canadian authorities announced that a person without any legal counsel or agent of the immigrant visa application. They even encourage individuals to apply. The main problem, as I said before is that people do not know where, when and how to apply. A solution for this problem is the principle of individual immigrants, or how I called immigration consultants. This is a step by step guide to moving to Canada. Consultants, including all the details, information, application forms, internet links and many, many features, the boot process, you and your family to obtain an immigrant visa in order to dream. Anyone can check and find a way to save thousands of dollars in consultants.
