A Canadian permanent resident is someone who has obtained permanent residence status in Canada through immigration. A permanent resident has many of the same rights as a Canadian citizen. They must, however, preserve their status, unlike citizens, by completing certain conditions such as the residence requirement. Permanent residents in Canada are not citizens of Canada. Permanent residents of Canada are not eligible to apply for a Canadian passport or other privileges enjoyed by citizens. Unlike Canadian citizens, there are some standards that a PR must meet in order to maintain its status.
In 2007, The Economist called Canada the world's most peaceful country. Many people, particularly immigrants going to live in a new nation, are concerned about their safety. Well! One of Canada's most essential advantages is that it is a safe and secure location. So, let’s dive deep into the know-how of Canadian PR.
To get the status of PR in Canada, one must:
The IRCC issued the revised Immigration Level Plan 2022-2024 on February 14, 2022, with the objective of inviting 1.33 million permanent immigrants to Canada. According to that strategy, the government has set a lofty goal of welcoming 431,645 new immigrants by 2022. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has announced substantial changes to the Parents and Grandparents Super Visa, which will go into effect on July 4, 2022.
The stay period for Super Visa holders in Canada will be increased to five years per entrance.
People who currently have a Super Visa can seek to extend their stay in Canada for up to two years, suggesting that existing Super Visa holders will be eligible to stay in Canada for an additional two years.
Once you obtain a PR, you can migrate to any territory or province in Canada. You do not need to remain with the same company, position, or even province. Furthermore, the majority of Canadian permanent residency cards are good for five years, however, others are only valid for one year. Furthermore, if your family members become permanent residents, they will be able to live, study, and work in Canada.
Furthermore, tuition rates for higher study are significantly lowered for permanent residents. Medical care is free for all Canadian permanent resident visa holders, and it also covers all prescription prescriptions paid for through taxes. With the PR card in hand, you can go outside, within, or stay in Canada (many times).
Also, do you know that Canadian PR is the first step in becoming a Canadian citizen? You can apply for Canadian citizenship if you have lived in Canada for three of the last five years. Permanent residency in Canada is valid for five years and can be renewed.
Those who become Canadian citizens receive a Canadian passport, which is a globally recognized travel document. This implies that you don't require a visiting visa to visit most developed and developing countries throughout the world, as most countries provide visas on arrival to Canadian citizens.
You must get a medical checkup. This medical checkup costs CAD110 (Rs. 5,500). The price for a Biometric for Canada PR Visa is CAD 85 per person. Families applying for a guest visa together, on the other hand, will only be charged a maximum biometric cost of CAD 170. PCC certifies that you do not have a criminal record in the nation of your residency and costs around CAD 10.
To obtain an ECA - Educational Credential Assessment, you must have your educational qualifications evaluated by a certified evaluating authority. ECA ranges from CAD 227 to CAD 322 per person.IRCC application processing fees are 850 Canadian dollars per person and 230 Canadian dollars per dependent kid. Costs to IRCC for Permanent Residence: 515 CAD per individual, no fees for dependent children.
Provincial nomination, if applicable: between $250 and $1,500 CAD (New Brunswick) (Ontario). Other expenditures include certifications, notaries, translations, courier shipments, affidavits, biometrics, and so on. Let us assume a 175 CAD average per person.
