As trump claims to restrict the number of skill and employment based immigrant visas, Indians continues to choose to trade their jobs in the U.S. for the chance to immigrate permanently to Canada. However, most people don’t know the options they have to migrate to Canada so we decided to compile them all in a single blog post with detailed information.

Express Entry – Federal Skilled Worker

This is one of the most commonly used immigration plan where the candidates need to show their skills in particular trade, which can fulfil the demand and supply of skills in Canada. This is a point-based program, which makes it difficult to give all applicants the desired scores that are required for successful approval.

According to the records, over 47% of all the applications received in 2019 for Express Entry were issued to Indian nationals and most of them belonged to the Federal Skilled Worker stream.

Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs)

This is another most helpful immigration program that allows Indians and other nationals to migrate to Canada.  Each of Canada’s provinces and territories operates its own immigration programs, which is known as Provincial Nominee Programs, or PNPs. All of these programs may be different to each other. However, they’ve been found to be most helpful and the fastest pathways to Canadian permanent residency.

Quebec Skilled Worker (QSW)

This can be called just like the PNP program where the province of Quebec runs its own skilled worker immigration program. This is operated by the province of Quebec for candidates who have experience and can help contribute to Quebec’s economy as members of the workforce. The Quebec Skilled Worker program is also a point-based system where the candidates are ranked using a points system and only the eligible candidates will be granted the visa.

Work Permits

Work permit has been the fastest way to get access to Canada. As a professional, having experience in a particular industry one can apply job with an employer who needs to be registered in Canada. Once you have the job letter from a registered employer in Canada, you can apply for the work permit in Canada. In case of multinational companies with offices in Canada, it is mandatory for the candidate to be eligible to transfer to an office in Canada, without too much paperwork!

Study Permit

If you are a student, having excellent academic skills or a strong desire to study with one of the leading universities in Canada, then this is the right program for you. Under study visa, one must obtain apply with a university or college in Canada and once the Letter of Acceptance is received, the process for visa application can be initiated.
