Permanent Residency
Every year, Canada welcomes thousands of professional workers from all over the world. There are several entry points for skilled employees who wish to permanently relocate to Canada. Santos & Associates Immigration is here to help you understand how to use the services to find the fastest and most cost-effective way to reach Canada and meet your immigration objectives.
Work Permit
There are several opportunities for temporary work in Canada. The trick is to consider how your objectives fit with the services available and to match you with the appropriate program. How you manage the choices and schedule your arrival will be influenced by the nature of your job and the demand for your skills. For others, their first job in Canada would be on a temporary basis to enable them to gain experience.
Study Permit
Canada has an outstanding, world-class educational system. Student admissions have increased dramatically, and both schools and the government have responded by opening their doors to those wishing to study in Canada. The student has always been seen as a suitable future permanent resident by the Canadian government.
Tourist & Visitor Permit
With its varied landscapes and environment, Canada is an excellent place to vacation and visit. Every year, a large number of people visit Canada for vacation or to visit family members who have made Canada their home. If they are not visa free, some tourists will need a visa, while others will need an ETA (Electronic Travel Authorization).
Family Immigration
The Government of Canada has made family reunification a top priority, and there are a variety of initiatives in place to help and promote this valuable Canadian benefit. Unfortunately, many people believe it is not “their right” to sponsor whomever they choose, only to learn much later – years later – that this is not always the case.
Business/Investor Visa
For high-net-worth individuals interested in immigrating under a company or investment scheme, Canada offers a variety of appealing options. There are several services available to business investors, each with a different set of investment capital and the ability to be either actively involved in the business or a passive investor.
Citizenship
Many immigrants aspire to become Canadian citizens, and it is the final move that will enable them to truly become a next generation Canadian. There are many ways to become a Canadian citizen, and Canada welcomes the next generation of people who will form the country for years to come.
