Factors such as family ties, work commitments, and overall connection to Canada may influence their decision. Since each case is unique, we recommend contacting our office for a free and confidential assessment of your situation.

The Canadian Experience Class (CEC) is designed for temporary foreign workers and international graduates who want to become Permanent Residents in Canada. To qualify, international graduates must have completed at least two years of study at a Canadian post-secondary institution and gained one year of skilled work experience. Temporary foreign workers must have at least two years of skilled work experience in Canada within the past three years. The CEC allows applicants to stay in Canada while applying and is also available for individuals who have left Canada within the past year. Contact us for more details on how to apply through the CEC or explore Provincial Nomination Programs (PNP).

The Self-Employed Program is designed for individuals with experience in cultural, artistic, athletic, or farm management sectors who wish to establish their own employment in Canada. Applicants must have at least two years of relevant experience, demonstrate financial stability, and show their ability to make a significant contribution to Canada’s economy. While the federal program focuses on cultural, athletic, or farming contributions, Quebec has a separate point-based system with specific financial and experience requirements.

Arranged Employment in Canada is a key factor in the Skilled Worker immigration process, allowing applicants to earn up to 10 points towards their eligibility. Points are awarded for a permanent job offer from a Canadian employer, either with government approval or if the applicant is already working in Canada under a qualifying work permit. Additionally, applicants may receive up to 5 extra points under the Adaptability Factor, further strengthening their immigration application.

The USA Visa Program offers various pathways for Canadians and other nationals seeking short-term work permits, investment opportunities, or permanent residency. Options like the TN visa provide a fast track for professionals, while investor visas such as E-2 and EB-5 allow individuals to establish businesses in the U.S. Each visa category has specific requirements, including financial investment, employment offers, or managerial roles. Choosing the right visa depends on long-term goals, tax implications, and family considerations. Our expert guidance ensures you navigate the process smoothly and secure the best visa option for your needs.

The Visitors Visa Program allows individuals to enter Canada temporarily for tourism, business, or family visits. While some nationals are visa-exempt, others must obtain a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) from a Canadian visa office before traveling. TRVs can be single or multiple entry, with stays typically granted for up to six months. Approval at the port of entry depends on proving the visit is temporary, with sufficient financial support and no criminal or medical inadmissibility issues.
