PERMANENT RESIDENCY

Per annual Immigration level plan Canada targets more than 1.3 million new immigrants in 2022-2024.

The main streams for Permanent residency are Family class, Economic class, Humanitarian class and Refugees and Protected persons class.

Family class – Canadian citizen or permanent resident who meets certain eligibility criteria can sponsor a family member (spouse/common law partner/conjugal partner, depended children (less than 22 years old and not married, or 22 years and older who is unable to self-support financially due to physical or mental condition), children intended for adoption, parent, grandparent and their dependent children, brothers/sisters/nephews/nieces/grandchildren who are orphaned and under 18 years old and not married).

Economic class – the legal basis for selecting foreign nationals under economic class is their ability to become economically established in Canada. The applicants are being selected based criteria, such as their age, educational level, work experience, occupation, knowledge of English or French, financial means, prospective employment in Canada, adaptability, and other factors.

Economic Immigration can be divided into two distinct processing streams:

  • Express Entry system (Federal Skilled Workers – FSW, Federal Skilled Trades – FST, Canadian Experience Class – CEC, and Provincial Nominee Program – PNP)

  • Direct application to IRCC (Business Immigration, Self-employed class, Start-up visa, Caregiver class, Provincial Nominee Program – PNP)

Humanitarian and Compassionate Considerations class (H&C) is intended for extraordinary cases that do not meet the requirements of other Immigration pathways to Canada. Section 25 of Immigration law gives the officer the discretion to grant PR status to foreign nationals where there are strong humanitarian and compassionate reasons for doing so. Some examples of H&C consideration: survivors of human trafficking, refugees who were refused status due to flawsA short description to tell people about the topic mentioned above.

Refugees and Protected persons – a person who is forced to flee from persecution and who is outside of his home country. Convention refugee must meet the refugee definition in the 1951 Geneva Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees. The refugee is a person who, by reason of a well-founded fear of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group or political opinion is outside of their country of nationality and is unable or unwilling to avail themselves for protection in that country.

Canada provides protection to refugees in three distinct ways:

  • Abroad, through the selection of foreign nationals who apply for permanent residence when they have been already determined to be a Convention refugee by UNHCR and various non-government organizations (NGOs).

  • In Canada, through determination by the PRD (Refugee Protection Division) of the IRB (Immigration and Refugee Board) that a person meets a Conventional refugee status.

  • In Canada, through PRRA (pre-removal risk assessment) administrative decision.

CANADIAN CITIZENSHIP and PR card

Citizenship

Do you want to become a Canadian citizen and assess your eligibility to apply? Our team can help you with your citizenship application and advise you on the best time to apply and strategy to successfully obtain Canadian Citizenship. There are many benefits of holding Canadian Citizenship, such as: international travel rights, improved job opportunities, political participation, ability to pass the citizenship to children born outside Canada, dual citizenship is permitted by Canada, sense of belonging to the ‘Canadian family’.

The Canadian Citizenship Act allows for four ways of becoming a citizen:

  • Being born in Canada

  • Being born outside of Canada to a Canadian citizen (the first generation limit applies)

  • Being born outside of Canada and adopted by at least one parent who is a Canadian citizen

  • Apply for a grant of citizenship – Naturalization process. Applicant must meet the following requirements:

      • you must already be a permanent resident of Canada

      • you must have resided in Canada for at least 3 years out of the 5 years prior to your application for citizenship

      • you must have filed your taxes in Canada

      • you must pass a citizenship test (Canada’s history, geography, government, and the rights and responsibilities of citizenship)

      • you must meet language proficiency skills in English or French

Permanent Residency

Gaining permanent residence in Canada is something that foreign nationals work hard for and do not want to lose. Having this status in Canada means that you can travel in and out of the country without issue, benefit from various Canadian social services, and eventually, become a Canadian citizen if you wish to.

To maintain PR status, is it so important to ensure that you are tracking your time outside of Canada and renewing your PR card prior to its expiry. While you do not automatically lose your permanent resident status if your card expires, you do require a valid PR card or permanent resident travel document (PRTD) to travel back to Canada by plane, train, bus or boat.

When applying to renew your PR card, the government will assess the amount of time you spent in Canada for the 5-year period that your card was valid (most PR cards are issued for 5 years at a time). This is important as your status can be revoked if it is found that you left Canada for a significant period of time and allowed your card to expire before returning to the country. 

Residency requirement

To maintain permanent resident status in Canada, you have to have been in the country for a minimum of 730 days during the 5 years prior to applying to renew your card. These days do not have to be continuous and in some cases, your time overseas may count towards these days. For frequent travelers it is recommended to track your time outside of Canada by keeping a travel journal to ensure you maintain your PR requirements.
