Canada PR Visa Eligibility and Fees

The Canadian government wishes to make it easier for skilled immigrants to enter the country and begin a new life. Immigration is a process that must be completed in the correct order, with no shortcuts.

Who is eligible to apply for a Canada PR visa?

In order to be eligible to apply for a Canada PR visa, you must:

• be at least 18 years of age
• have a valid passport
• have a clean criminal record
• have completed at least one year of full-time studies (or equivalent) at a secondary or post-secondary school in Canada
• have worked in Canada for at least one year on a valid work permit

What are the requirements?

• To be eligible for a Canada PR Visa, you must:
• be at least 18 years of age
• have a valid passport
• have a minimum of 1 year of full-time work experience in an occupation that is listed under the National Occupational Classification (NOC)
• meet the language requirements of either English or French
• have completed a post-secondary education program of at least 1 year
• prove that you have enough money to support yourself and your family after you arrive in Canada
• pass a medical exam
• pass a security check

What is the cost and how can you pay for it?

A Canadian Permanent Resident Visa costs $550 CAD. It can be paid for with a credit card, a debit card, or a certified check. You will be charged an additional $20 CAD if you use a credit or debit card. If you pay by certified cheque, make it payable to the Receiver General of Canada and send it to the visa office where you submitted your application.

PR application process, timeline, documents and more.

The Canadian PR application process can be lengthy and complicated, but understanding the timeline, required documents, and other important details can help make it go more smoothly.

The first step is to determine whether you are eligible for Canadian permanent residency. If you do, the next step is to collect the necessary documentation. This includes your passport, birth certificate, marriage certificate (if applicable), proof of financial support, and other important documents.

You can begin filling out the online application form once you have all of your documentation in order. The form must be completed completely and accurately, as any errors may cause your application to be delayed or even denied.

After submitting your application, you will receive an email confirmation with your application number. This number will be required to check the status of your application online. Depending on your specific situation, a decision on your application could take anywhere from a few weeks to several months.

Congratulations if your application is approved! You are now on your way to becoming a Canadian permanent resident. If it is denied, don’t give up hope; you may have other options, such as reapplying or applying for a different type of visa entirely.
