What Immigration Categories provide Permanent Status? What Immigration Categories Provide Temporary Status?

Ms. Chotalia, Q.C., as an Experienced Edmonton Immigration Lawyer, keeps up to date on changes and can guide you through immigration laws and the various changes to the processes.

Canada Permanent Resident Status

A permanent resident is a person who has acquired permanent resident status by immigrating to Canada but who is not a citizen.
Permanent residents must fulfill residency obligations. Subject to certain exceptions, generally they must be physically present
in Canada for 730 days in any 5 year period.  Residency is a question of law.  We can assist with residency examinations and the exceptions.  

Permanent residents cannot vote or run for political office; hold jobs that require high-level security clearances; remain in Canada if convicted of certain serious criminal offences.

We have assisted many permanent residents with respect to criminal charges and convictions.  We can help you to get the advice that you need.

How to Acquire Permanent Resident Status

There are a number of avenues for immigrants to immigrate to Canada. These include:
Federal Skilled Worker Program
Family Class Sponsorship
Investor & Entrepreneur Stream
Self Employed
Canadian Experience Class
H & C Cases
Convention Refugees
