Canada is a country of great opportunity with many immigration options, but immigration to it has its own characteristics and nuances. However, it is not for nothing that Canada is one of the most popular migration destinations in the world. Having thoughtfully weighed everything, many migrants accept the appropriate visas and run to the Canadian consulate. By the way, Canada is one of the few countries that has a special immigration program.

Why does Canada attract immigrants? Yes, because Canada has a lot of territories, but not much population, and therefore the influx of population into the country is economically feasible. By the way, the situation is exactly the same in Australia. However, as we said above, there are still various ways to immigrate to Canada, and now we will look at them in more detail. But, in any case, there is no need to be afraid of difficulties. The one who walks will master the road.

1) Professional labor migration program. This is what Canada is known for, as this program provides ample opportunities for specialists in a variety of professions. True, the profession must be on the list of those in demand (here is an approximate list of professions in demand in Canada), but this method is suitable for people who do not have large financial resources. The professional migration system to Canada is a real way to get permanent residence there, and works on the basis of points that are awarded for certain points on your resume. This list includes the following: level of proficiency in the official languages ​​of Canada (English and French), education (higher education is highly desirable), work experience in the specialty, working age, a job offer from a Canadian employer (unrealistic, unfortunately), relatives in Canada, and also work experience or training in Canada. Based on these points, points are awarded, if you collect enough of them, Canada will accept you. True, the process of reviewing documents and making a decision can easily drag on for several years.

2) Business immigration. Yes, in Canada you can obtain permanent residence as a businessman. To do this, you need to open your own company there or act as an investor by investing a certain amount in a company existing in Canada. The disadvantages of this method of immigration to Canada are obvious - they require significant financial resources.

3) Self-employment. Prominent athletes and cultural and artistic figures fall under this definition, that is, for 99.9% of those wishing to do so, this method of immigration to Canada will not be suitable. You can, of course, buy or open your own farm in Canada, which also falls under the definition of self-employment, but this costs a lot of money.

4) Sponsored immigration. Everything is simple here - if you have relatives in Canada who are ready to vouch for your maintenance, then you can obtain permanent residence. If the migration department of the country of the maple leaf, of course, gives the go-ahead.

5) Immigration through training. It is quite possible to obtain one, but this method is also very costly in terms of time and finances, since the training will last at least two to three years. However, having a Canadian diploma will be a significant advantage when looking for a job, so some people use this method.

6) Apply for asylum as a refugee. The method is very slippery and unreliable, and it will not suit most potential immigrants. Proving that you have the right to seek asylum and obtain refugee status is very, very difficult.

These are, perhaps, all the main methods of immigration to Canada. Which one is right for you personally is up to you to decide. For obvious reasons, the greatest demand is for the labor professional migration program. Perhaps you should try your hand?
