NEW! Want to find a new friend in Canada?
"Immigrating to Canada has always been my dream. But I don't know where to begin ... My funds
were limited so I can't afford to pay the fees of the immigration agencies in my country. But I was
determined to immigrate, so I spent hundreds of hours searching the internet for information on
how the Canadian immigration process works.
After weeks and weeks in front of the computer, I finally got tired and frustrated... I was about to
give up my hope of ever living in Canada ... Until a friend mentioned to me about an ebook that she
just bought...My hopes went high again.
I checked the ebook that my friend recommended, Canada Immigration Step-by-Step.
To my surprise the price of the ebook was a real bargain. It was such a small price to pay, so I
bought it.
Then I was trilled -- in just a matter of hours after reading the ebook, I gained enough knowledge
and confidence that I can qualify as an independent immigrant. But what is most interesting to
learn is that settlement funds is not always required. "

Chapter 21
The Medical Examination
Before you are accepted for permanent status in Canada, you and your dependents, whether accompanying you or not, must undergo and pass a medical examination.
You will receive full instructions from the Visa Office when it is time for you and your dependants to undergo the medical examinations.
Do not have your medical examinations done until you are told to do so by the Visa Office. After you have receive a notice from the Visa Office, it will be your responsibility
to arrange an appointment with the DMP.
These medical examinations are intended to detect any conditions which may affect the health of the Canadian public, or which may result in excessive demands being placed
upon the Canadian health or social care system.
Passing the medical examination is required since you are applying under the Skilled Workers Migration Program. You are chosen based on your potential economic contribution
to Canada, therefore you should at least be healthy to be able to work and provide for yourself and your family.
List of DMP's around the world
The medical examination is done by Designated Medical Practitioners (DMP). To know the DMP's in your country, click here ( you must be connected to the internet
to use this list).
Procedures for the Medical Examinations
You will receive a letter from the Visa Office giving you instructions that you are due for medical examinations.
You should make an appointment with a doctor from the list of designated medical practitioners. Check the list for a doctor nearest to where you live.
The result of you and your dependent's the medical examination would be sent to the Visa Office.
You will receive further instructions from the Visa Office should there be a need for other examinations.
Canadian Immigration
What are the things I should bring to the during the medical examinations?
You should carefully read the instructions given to you my the Visa Office. You should remember to bring your passport, any relevant medical report, your
eyeglasses, contact lenses or hearing aid if you wear any of these. Also bring the medical notice sent by the Visa Office.
All costs related to the medical examinations is your responsibility. It is very possible that you may be asked to take other medical examinations before a final
medical decision is made.
Canadian Immigration
If your ailment would place an excessive demand on Canadians health services your application might be rejected. A person with a serious disease or psychiatric
disorder requiring ongoing care or hospitalization or individuals with developmental delay or congenital disorders who require special education or training to lead an
independent life may be inadmissible.
Canadian Immigration
Will I receive a copy of the medical report and the result of the medical examination?
All medical reports and X-rays for the Immigration Medical Examination will become the property of the Canadian Immigration Medical Authorities and cannot be
returned to the applicant. The designated medical practitioner (DMP) ***will not tell and cannot tell you*** of the results of the medical. However, he will advise you if
you have a health-related problem. Only the Visa Officer and not the DMP makes the final decision on whether or not a medical examination has been passed for
immigration purposes. The Visa Office will send you a letter should there be a problem with your medical examination.
After your application is approved, they may put you in a medical surveillance program. This information will help you understand this program more.

Canadian Immigration
Introduction
Now, it is possible to migrate ** legally** to Canada using the very skills and
And *** YES *** I did it all by myself. During that time I had no access to the Internet
or email. I relied upon whatever resources were available in bookstores during that
time. And since I was so busy working, I took me almost a year to understand the
Canadian immigration process! I wasted a year, a year where I could already be in
Canada, earning money in dollars! How I wish somebody had written a book like this
before, a book that tells you exactly what you need to know about immigration to
Canada.
The main reason why I wrote this book is for you to save lots of money and hundreds
of hours researching for a way to be able to migrate to Canada. There are so many
information that you can get for free on the Internet, but who has the time to spend
hundreds of hours in front of the computer?
What is so amazing about this ebook?
Teaches you all the information you need to maximize your chances of being
approved as a landed immigrant
Teaches you how to prepare your immigration visa package, in a simple stepby-step instruction. Sample forms are included as a guide in preparing your
own.
Teaches you what to do up to the time that you land in Canada
What this book "is not" ?
Canadian Immigration
It is not our intention to render legal advice. If you think you need the help of
immigration consultants or lawyers, we even provided a special report on how
to get one.
Again, if migrating to Canada is your dream, then you should start reading this ebook
immediately! If you want to live in the best country in the world, then buying this ebook
is the best investment you can ever make in your whole life. This may be a once in a
lifetime opportunity that you have been waiting for!
But let me warn you --- Immigration to a foreign land is not for everybody. Immigration
is only for those who know how to dream .. and to those who wants to pursue that
dream with an open mind! You deserve to build a better life for you and your family
and to do that, you must take action as soon as you can.
You have to dream big dreams... big dreams that are attainable! And let me tell you
that the great Canadian dream of yours is possible! It is our prayer that we can help
you in our little way to fulfill that dream.
May the good Lord bless you in pursuit of your dream!

Legal Ways to Immigrate
There are several ways for a person to legally immigrate to Canada and some of these programs would be discussed briefly.
However, our book deals mainly with the Independent Immigration Program, also known as the Economic Classes- Federal Skilled Workers Program. When
you are approved for the Independent Immigration Program, you will be given a Canadian Permanent Resident Visa.
Dont try to stay or work in Canada illegally! Dont take your chances since it is not worth it in the end. Canada has very strict policies on illegal aliens
in their country
You can use the information in this ebook to be able to migrate to any of Canada's 10 provinces and 3 territories. However, Quebec has its own selection
procedure for immigrants wanting to reside in their province that is not covered in this ebook. To learn more about immigration to Quebec, click on this link.
You will need an internet connection to be able to make the link to Quebec to work correctly.
Also, if you are nominated by a province under the provincial nominee program, please read our Bonus Report 2.

Economic Classes
Federal Skilled Workers Immigration
Independent immigrants to Canada are chosen based on their potential economic contribution to the country.
As an independent immigrant, you will be assessed based on your **skills and ability ** to contribute to the Canadian labor market.
The good new is --- only the principal applicant is assessed based on the point system, not the spouse or the dependents !
This program uses a point system (which we will discuss later) that allows you to asses your chances of being approved or not, even
before submitting your application.
Basic Checklist
to determine if you will qualify for
Independent Immigration
Before you go any further in reading this e book, we have prepared a simple questionnaire to help you find out if you can pass the
most basic immigration requirements for skilled workers. If you can answer YES to ALL requirements, then you have a very high
chance of getting approved as an independent immigrant.
Basic Requirements
Yes
No
Healthy
No criminal record
Should be able to obtain a valid travel
Passport
Between 21 49 years of age
Has a college or university diploma
One year of full-time paid work experience
occupation listed in the NOC list
Able to raise funds for Payment of
Processing Fees and required Funds to
settle in Canada
Should be able to communicate in English
or French
Brief explanation of the basic requirements. The detailed explanation of all requirements would be discussed in the next few chapters.
You dont have a criminal record since you must provide proof of good conduct from the police department.
The most ideal age is between 21 and 49. You will lose some points for each year you pass 49 years of age. However, if
Canadian Immigration
you have substantial work experience and/or have Canadian relatives, you may still be able to reach the minimum score
requirement (75 points). This score will be explained later in the book.
You need to be able to afford the total processing fee $1,545.00 Canadian dollar (about $1,000.US dollar)/per adult
application fee payable to Canadian Government's Immigration Authority which handles the immigration process. You
should also be able to raise the settlement funds to cover your first six months of living expenses in Canada. The Visa
Officer may or may not ask you to reveal the amount in you bank account, but it is highly recommended to be prepared with
your financial records. You don't need the required settlement funds if you have an arranged employment in Canada.
To maximize your chances of getting approved, you should have at least a four-year college or university diploma in
engineering or sciences (most natural sciences) like computer science, telecommunication, information technology
professional, economics, marketing research and consultant, translator, and others.
Your job/s in the past 10 years should be listed in the NOC Skill Type 0 or Skill Levels A or B
You should be able to communicate in English OR French, the 2 official languages of Canada.
What is the difference between Canadian Permanent Visa and a USA Immigration H1B Visa?
The US immigration system selects skilled workers with a right to work in the United States. But, the US immigration
system does not easily approve permanent residency status. Many of these skilled workers on an H1B status can be
sent back to their home country if their Green Card is not approved before the 6-year limit on H1s expires. Then after
obtaining your green card, you may have to wait for years before you can get the US citizenship.
under the the Canadian Skilled Class Immigration system, skilled workers once approved, you are automatically given
the permanent residency status. This entitles you to change employers, relocate, and sponsor family members to
emigrate which is not available under the US H1B visa. Even if you lose your job, you can still remain in Canada and
enjoy most of the rights and privileges accorded to a Canadian citizen.
Single Applicants
Canadian Immigration
If you are thinking of getting married ... is it better to get married before you apply or
after you receive the permanent residence status?
If you would like to enter Canada with your spouse, you may get married before submitting your application to the
Consulate or during the immigration process. Your spouse will receive a Canadian immigration status automatically if
you receive it.
If you want to apply without a spouse, you will have to sponsor him or her after moving to Canada. In addition, you must
qualify to be a sponsor. You should be able to show to the Canadian Consulate how much your earned income in
Canada is.
Married Applicants
Married couples should decide as to who will be the principal applicant. Only one can be the principal applicant. The
principal applicant should be the one who would most likely get the highest points.
After deciding who the principal applicant is, the principal applicant may include the spouse and dependent children in
his application for immigration.
under the age of 22 and does not have a spouse or common-law partner
a full time student and is substantially dependent on a parent for financial support since before the age of
22, or since becoming a spouse or common-law partner (if this happened before age 22);
financially dependent on a parent since before the age of 22 because of a disability.

The Application Process
The Whole Application Process In 8 Simple Steps
Step One : Obtaining all the Forms
You have to get the complete Application Kit for Independents from the
Canadian Embassy. There are 2 ways on how to get it.
1. You can write the Canadian Embassy to request for a complete Application Kit. Click here to get the address of the Canadian Embassy in your country.
2. You can get these application forms right now! Just click here.
These forms will be your starting point of your application process. These forms will help you in several ways:
1.
2.
3.
4.
you will know what are the information that you need to gather to complete your application form
you will know what documents that you need to secure so that you can start in gathering them as early as possible
how to obtain these documents
you will know what are the photo requirements, medical requirements and how to obtain police certificates.
This application form will become part of your permanent immigration record. Before sending the completed form to the embassy, I would advise
you to photocopy the entire application form itself. You can use this as a reference for your future interview just in case you have forgotten what you have
written.
Step Three : Submitting the Application Forms and Documents
Submit your application package to the Embassy. Follow the embassys instructions on how to submit your completed application form.
Step Four : The Interview
http://www.canadajobsandimmigration.com/version4/c5.htm (1 sur 3)2006-03-26 20:59:15
Canadian Immigration
Within 6 to 8 months after submission of the application package, you will receive an Interview Notice from the Canadian embassy. Read carefully the interview
instructions. Pay attention to the date, time and place of the interview. Go to our Interview Suggestions to help you in preparing for this momentous event! Some
applicants who got very high points will no longer be called in for a selection interview. They will be granted an interview waiver instead.
Step Four : The Medical Examinations
Even before the selection interview date, you plus your dependents, might be asked to undergo a medical examination. You would be instructed to see a
Designated Immigration Doctor or DMP.
Step Six : Approval of your Application
After passing the selection interview and the medical examination, you the principal applicant plus your accompanying dependents would receive your individual
permanent resident visas. From the interview date, the approval process may take as short as 4 months to as long as 24 months or even longer. Only the
Canadian Visa and Immigration Office will know when your visa would be issued! The only factors that you can control are how fast you can comply with the
requirements, how good you are at the interview and how healthy you are based on the results of your medical exams.
Step Seven : Preparation before leaving for Canada
As soon as you received your permanent resident visa, pay close attention to all instructions written in your visa package. The most important information to
check is the expiration date of your permanent resident visa.
You should leave for Canada before the expiration date of your permanent resident visa. Once your visa has expired you have to re-apply all over again and pay
all the required fees.
There are some important things that you have to remember before your leave for Canada. We devoted one whole chapter for this to help you out.
Step Eight : Arriving in Canada
There are so many things you need to know about your new homeland and the more information you have, the easier you can adopt to the Canadian way of life.
Successfully settling in Canada is a very vital part of the immigration process and we have also devoted one whole chapter to help you adjust to your new life in
Canada.

greater your chances of getting approved. This knowledge can be very powerful, you have to use it to your advantage.

You have to attend the selection interview if you are called in.
After the selection interview, you need to do is to pass the medical examinations to receive your permanent resident visa.

Chapter 7
Occupations in High Demand
Your occupation or work experience is a very important factor in your assessing your
application. You can get a maximum of 21 points depending on your work experience. Your
application for an immigrant visa will be assessed on your qualifications, skills and experience in the
occupation you intend to follow in Canada.
For you to qualify under the skilled worker immigration, you must meet the following minimum work
experience requirements:
You must have at least one year of paid full-time work experience.
Your occupation or work experience must be in the category of Skill Type 0, or Skill Level A
or B on the Canadian National Occupational Classification (NOC).
You must have had this work experience within the last 10 years before you file your
application.
To find out your work experience equivalent in Canada, you need to use the National Occupation
Classification or NOC issued by the government of Canada. Click here to go Chapter 9.
Canadian Immigration
Canadian Immigration
Chapter 8
For Engineers, Technicians,
Technologists or Pharmacists Only
If your intend to work in Canada as an engineer, technician, technologist or pharmacist, it is best that you submit an initial assessment document with your application for permanent residence.
This initial assessment is conducted by regulatory authorities to prove that your occupational qualifications will be valid in Canada.
A CCPE's (Canadian Council of Professional Engineers) and CCTT (Canadian Council of Technicians and Technologists) assessments will show the Visa Officer that an applicant has a potential to be employed in
Canada as a professional engineer, technician or technologist. While applicants are encouraged to obtain the CCPE or CCTT assessment, it should be understood, that the assessment is not a prerequisite to the
application process, as there are no such provisions in the Immigration Act or Immigration Regulations to make a third party assessment a requirement for immigration processing.
The Visa Officer cannot deny an application simply because of the absence of this assessment. An applicant may submit anything that he feels would improve his chances of getting approved. If the applicant prefers
to submit other proofs of occupational readiness and certification, he is allowed to do so.
Just remember, a positive assessment from these Canadian professional organizations is a guarantee that you can automatically get a license upon arrival in Canada. You may still be required to take further
studies or examinations to be certified in Canada.
The other details of the initial assessment is not covered in this ebook.
Please go to the website of the following organizations to get more information about the initial assessment requirements.

Chapter 10
How to Find a Job in Canada
Before Immigrating
You really don't need to have a Canadian job offer before you can apply for an immigrant visa.
But if you can find one, your points in the selection criteria will go higher by 15 points. You will need these extra
points especially if they are lacking somewhere in the point system.
Also, when you have a job offer or an arranged employment, you don't need to show proof of settlement funds. For some
applicants, this is good news since it is so hard to raise the settlement funds that the immigration officers are requiring.
Don't forget, the documented promise of a guaranteed job does not assure that your application will be approved. But as long as the rest
of your application is positive, your chances of getting approved as an immigrant is higher than another applicant who does not have a job
offer.
Remember, the process in looking for a guaranteed job offer can be difficult, but not impossible. The key here is to convince the
employer that you have skills that no existing Canadian resident can perform, for the salary being offered where the job is located.
Send your resume and cover letter directly to Canadian companies who hire people with your qualifications.
Send your resume and cover letter directly to Job Recruiters and other Canadian placement agencies that specialize in your type of
occupation.
Send you resume and cover letter directly to companies who are located in the northern or rural areas of Canada. These are areas
where most Canadians would not like to work, since there are not too many recreational amenities or where the weather is not as
comfortable compared to that where the major cities are.
Post your resume in Canadian job sites like http://www.monster.ca. This will expose your resume to Canadian employers looking
for applicants.
If you are working for a company with an office in Canada, maybe you can apply for an international transfer to the Canadian Office.
Do not quote a very high salary or demand outrageous benefits when applying. Making yourself as indispensable as possible will
help make the employer's part of the process be easier.
If you can afford it, the best advice we can offer you is to come to Canada on a vacation so that you can gather as much information
as you want.
If you cannot afford to come to Canada, the best advice we can give you is to buy our ebook My Canadian Job Finder. This ebook
contains a listing of more than 3,000 Canadian Job Placement Agencies and companies where you can send your resume and
cover letter. This is an invaluable tool for you to have whether you are inside or outside of Canada.
How should I prepare a cover letter and resume that is acceptable to Canadian Employers ?
Use a sample letter and resume that is acceptable by Canadian Standards. Click on the following links to help you in your job
search.
Canadian Immigration
You can contact employers directly by applying through their websites. This is a very effective job search method.
At this point, the internet is your best friend. You should identify your potential Canadian employers. Do a search on
the internet of various Canadian companies who might possibly employ someone with your skills. This could be hard
since you don't even know the names of these companies. For a start, we suggest that you use a search engine like
www.altavista.ca and do a search on "canadian company". Once you found the company that interests you, go the
Careers section of their website. Be sure to check the qualifications that the employers are looking for.
Once you have identified the company, send them an email attaching your cover letter and resume. remember,
sending a cover letter and resume is not the first step. It's checking the skills that the employers are looking for.
Follow up your application.

How to Estimate your Points
The Manual Self Assessment Worksheet
To quickly determine how many points you can get based on your qualifications, use the self assessment worksheet below.
After studying the factors, you can manually compute your points or you can use our Free Immigration to Canada Points Calculator in Chapter 12.
Be careful in making your assessment. If you are not comfortable with your initial assessment, repeat it. Study each and every factor so that you can maximize your points.
As of September 18, 2003, the pass mark for those applying to immigrate to Canada as skilled workers (to all provinces except Quebec), has changed from 75 to 67. This change is effective immediately.
All new skilled worker applicants and those currently in the system who have not yet received a selection decision, will be assessed with a pass mark of 67.
The Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Canada may amend the pass mark from time to time. Changes to the pass mark reflect the changes in the Canadian labour market and in the broader economy and society. The pass mark also reflects the changing demands
on the part of prospective immigrants to Canada.
Factor 1
Description :
You must have completed secondary school to get any points for education. Full-time study means at least 15 hours of instructions or work training during the academic school year. Full-time equivalent studies means he length of time that it
would have taken to complete a program of study on a full-time basis, but was actually completed on a part-time or accelerated basis.
To earn points, you must meet all conditions listed in the description below. For example, if say you completed a Ph.D in only 15 years of full-time equivalent study, you should give yourself only 22 points and not 25 points.

Chapter 14
Importance of Complete Documentation
One of the main reasons why the processing of your application can be delayed or even
denied is -- incomplete documentation. It is very important for you to realize that the
Visa Officer would initially rely on the documents that you submitted in assessing your
application. He has no idea or clue who you are, what you educational or work
background is. He is going to get to know you only through the documents that you will
submit. You should try to impress the Visa Officer through you documentation.
You should be able to convince the Visa Officer that you deserve to come to Canada as
an independent immigrant.
You have to make a good impression to the Visa Officer through your documentation.
Be very, very organized and complete.
We suggest that you consider these pointers when preparing
your application form and other required documents:
1. Print all the application forms, this is going to be your rough draft
2. Fill-up the application forms using a pencil so that you can easily
make changes.
3. Read and re-read . Dont rush. Be sure that you are satisfied with
the way you answered and filled-up all the forms.
4. Check your English, grammar and spelling. If you are not sure of
anything that you have written, refer to a dictionary or ask someone
who knows better. Remember, you will be given points based on your
proficiency in English.
5. Print a new set of application forms. You can now start filling-up
this new set of application form by copying the information in your
rough draft application form in step # 1. You should complete the
form by typing or printing clearly. Don't forget to sign your application
form. If you need more space to answer any questions, you can attach
separate pages using white paper.
6. When submitting the all the other required documents detailed in
the Checklist, be sure that these are readable. Unclear copies or
photocopies of any documents could be very annoying to anyone not
only the Visa Officer. You bet, the Visa Officer might not even look at
these "unreadable" documents. Remember, all documents should
have an English translation.
7. Comply with the photo requirements.
Always remember, it is an offense under the Immigration Act to
knowingly make a false statement or misleading statement in
support of an application for permanent residence. After you have
signed the application form, it becomes a legal document.
Canadian Immigration
Canadian Immigration
Chapter 17
How to Submit Your Application
This is the shortest chapter of this book, but likewise very important. Remember, once you have submitted your application, you cannot ask for them to be returned to you. These
application documents will be a part of your permanent file with the Visa Office. So again, be very careful before you submit your application.
Canadian Immigration
You may want to use a courier or registered mail in sending your whole application package to the Embassy to ensure that it would be properly delivered! There's nothing
more frustrating than losing your application package in the post office.
Canadian Immigration
Chapter 18
What Happens After
Submitting Your Application
After submitting your application, the Visa Office will start evaluating your case based on
the documents that you have submitted. Most of the background checks will also be
done by the Visa Office.
There is really nothing you can do during this process. There is no need for you to
follow up your application. The Visa Office will always contact you first if there is a need
to. All you have to do at this point is to ---- wait! You may not believe this, but prayers do
miracles.
If there are any changes in your personal circumstance ( see Chapter 22) these need to
be reported to the Embassy.

Canadian Immigration
Chapter 19
Interview Preparation and Tips
Most independent immigrant applicants are required to attend a
selection interview with a Canadian Visa Officer. In the immigration interview, the opinion of the
Visa Officer who interviews you is very important. Before the selection interview is over, the Visa Officer will let you know the results of your application and what to
do next.
Remember this --- the Visa Officer possesses wide discretionary authority. If in his or her judgment, you would make an ideal candidate for entry to Canada,
the Visa Officer may use this authority to admit you even if you would not otherwise qualify.
Likewise, if the Visa Officer feel that there are reasons that may prevent you from becoming successfully established in Canada, he or she can use the same
authority to refuse your application.
Once the Visa Officer has determined that you are qualified for immigration to Canada, the selection interview becomes an opportunity for the Visa Officer to
provide you with information concerning your upcoming relocation. This may include information about living and/or working conditions in the area where you intend
to reside.
Canadian Immigration

or older) to attend the interview, all of you need to be interviewed together at the same office, on the same day.
What if I don't speak English or French, but I was called in for an interview?
You will be required to bring your own interpreter with you during your interview. The person you bring must be a professional interpreter and must be
independent from you. Your interpreter cannot be your lawyer, immigration consultant or any other person you have retained to represent or advise
you concerning this application and they may not be an employee of that person. If did bring a professional interpreter, and the Visa Officer
determines that your language skill is not sufficient to carry out the interview, you will not be interviewed. Your interview will be rescheduled for a later
date.
You do not have to obtain any original documents you have already submitted with your application form. Simply
bring photocopies of the original documents you have provided. Depending on your situation, this will include your
marriage certificate, divorce papers or death certificate of spouse, children's birth certificates, adoption papers.
Be sure you carry copies of your educational records like diploma, transcript of records, training certificates or
professional certification.
Also bring any police clearances or any background security certificates

It might help a lot if you bring all the correspondence ( letters and notices ) that you had received from the Canadian

Dont wear too much make-up .
Dont put too much jewelry, but there is nothing wrong with using your best collection.

Canadian Immigration
Again, the key is dressing up professionally. If you are not sure about this, ask the opinion of someone who works in an office like a bank. Look at
their office uniforms to get an idea of how to dress up professionally.
Why do you want to go to Canada? In answering this question you should tell the Visa Officer that Canada has a high standard of living and was
voted number 1 country to live by the United Nations during the last 5 years. The government and legal system are effective and honest. The
http://www.canadajobsandimmigration.com/version4/c19.htm (5 sur 7)2006-03-26 20:59:46

educational and health facilities are excellent and one of the best in the world. If you are married, tell the Visa Officer that you wanted to raise a family
in a country that is safe, where personal security is protected by the police and everybody is treated equally regardless of race, color or religion. Also
review Chapter 20 for some important facts about Canada.
What part of Canada do you want to live and why ? Typically you wanted to live in a particular area because you know someone who lives in that
place like a family relative or friends. Tell the Visa Officer if this is the case. If you don't know anybody, be sure you have done your research as to
why to chose that province or city. In answering, tell the Visa Officer that you have done a research and give him the reasons why you were
impressed with that area. You might want to check this website for more information on the different places in Canada where you might want to
settle. Again, it is best the you know something about the province where you wanted to settle. Go to Chapter 20 to learn more about your province of
choice.
What kind of job are you looking for in Canada ? Tell the Visa Officer the exact job title or occupation that you wrote in your application form. Before
your actual interview, make every effort to start looking for a job ( see Chapter 12 for discussion on this). Take advantage of the power of the internet
and email in corresponding with Canadian companies who might be looking for an employee with your skills and experience. Bring all copies of emails
or letters receive from these Canadian companies.
What are the preparations you have made so far? Tell the Visa Officer that you have started doing research about Canada and its people. Or you
have been reading a lot of Canadian newspapers online to find out more about the current political or economic situation or even the weather in the
place where you wanted to settle. Again, you can impress the Visa Officer when you have taken the initiative to start looking a the current job market
and the demand for the occupation that you intend to have in Canada.
1. When the Visa Officer greets you with Good morning or Good Afternoon be sure to respond back with Good Morning or Good Afternoon
too. The best answer to How are you? or How are you today? is Im fine, thank you.
2. Its hard not to be nervous during the interview. Thats ok as long as you try to keep a clear mind and look confident all the time.
3. Always look at the Visa Officer straight into the eyes. No not look elsewhere.
4. Looking and sounding confident is different from being arrogant or boastful.
5. Give an honest, direct to the point answers to the questions. Dont make up stories that you cant prove.
6. Don't make any unnecessary actions like scratching your head, stamping your feet or any other annoying hand movements.
7. Dont ever, ever smoke during the interview.

8. Be sure to keep all your supporting documentation in an envelope or a folder. Be sure you know where to find the documents so that when the
Visa Officer asks for it, you can quickly pull it out from your envelope or folder.
9. If you did not hear the question, there is nothing wrong with saying to the Visa Officer I am sorry, I missed what you said, can you please
repeat that again?. This is acceptable especially if you say it with a smile.
10. If you did not understand the question, there is nothing wrong with saying to the Visa Officer I am sorry, I think I missed your point. What do
you mean by that?. This is acceptable especially if you say it with a smile.
11. If the Visa Officer is asking the wife, she should answer it. The husband should not answer the questions for the wife.
12. After the interview, dont forget to thank the Visa Officer. Say something like Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to speak with
you today. Good bye
13. A firm hand shake before and after the interview is acceptable.

Standard of Living
Canadians enjoy one of the best standards of living in the world.
Canada ranks sixth in the world in terms of standard of living, after
the United States, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Germany, and Japan.
Canada's rank among nations tends to rise even higher in
assessments that consider GDP per capita along with other
factors that contribute to "quality of life."
Education
Canada has one of the best educational system school in the world
today. Canada's public school is free to the public up to the
secondary level. Various government loans and assistance are
available to students in university.
Students go to school that may include 6 to 8 years at elementary
level, 4 or 5 years of secondary school and 3 or 4 years at the
university undergraduate level.
Sports
Canada's most popular sports include ice skating, swimming, ice
hockey, cross-country and alpine skiing, baseball, tennis,
basketball and golf. Ice hockey and lacrosse are considered as
Canada's national sports.
Weather
There are many weather variations in this huge country, ranging
from the permanently frozen icecaps north of the 70th parallel to
the luxuriant vegetation of British Columbia's west coast. Canada's
most populous regions, which lie in the country's south along the U.
S. border, enjoy four distinct seasons. Here daytime summer

Changes that Need to be Reported
after you have filed your application
Changes are bound to happen in your life while waiting for your landed immigrant
visa.
I wasn't married when I applied for immigration but I'm married now. Can I
land in Canada alone and sponsor my spouse once I am in Canada?
No, you will not be allowed to enter Canada. Your spouse must meet
the criteria for immigration before you can become a landed
immigrant.
Canadian Immigration
My wife has recently given birth, do I need to add this child to our
application? Do I need to get a passport for the baby?
If your baby was born in Canada, he/she is a Canadian Citizen and
does not need to be added to your application. You must send a copy
of the baby's birth certificate to the Visa Office.
If your baby was born outside of Canada, he/she must be added to
the application. You must submit a copy of the baby's birth certificate,
the processing fee (currently $100.00 Canadian) and the baby must be
medically examined. You must also obtain a passport for the baby.
I didn't have any children when I applied for immigration but my wife has
given birth. Can I land in Canada and sponsor my baby later?
No, you will not be allowed to enter Canada. Your baby must be
medically examined before you can become a landed immigrant. Your
child will be required to have her own passport.

If you are married and your spouse did not meet the application criteria
based on the point system, you might want to consider changing the
principal applicant to yourself. Be careful in doing this. Be sure that your

What to do when my application is approved!
Congratulations!
The most important news you have been waiting for has now finally arrived in your mailbox. Your application for permanent residence in Canada has
been approved. Your long wait is over! Your Canadian Permanent Resident Visa is now in your hands.
What if my dependents or I are unable to travel to Canada before our visas expire?
It is permissible that your dependents may choose not to accompany you when you land in Canada but to follow later before their visas
expire. Your dependents cannot, however, travel to Canada before you do, to present their visas.
Again, remember that the validity of a visa cannot be extended. If your visa expires before you present it at a Canadian port of entry, it is

Preparation Before Going to Canada
Preparing for the big move to Canada can be really tiring, but very exciting ! Before you leave for Canada, you might want to consider the following tips that we have compiled for
you. There are so many things that you would like to take along with you. It's really up to you to decide what to bring and what not to bring. But there are some stuff that you could
not automatically carry with yourself in your new homeland.
Checklist of what you need to do before leaving for Canada and what to bring to Canada.
What I need to do
Buy airplane tickets for you and your dependents. If you are transiting in another country, be sure you have the required transit visa.
Know the luggage limit of your airlines. If you are over the limit, you may have to ship your personal belongings that you cannot bring along
when you travel. Remember, it is often cheaper to use surface mail from your local post than to pay extra charges to the airline companies.
Prepare a list of "Goods to Bring" or those items which you are planning to bring along with you in your airplane flight to Canada. Include
Model Numbers and Serial Numbers of products if they have such numbers. It is also a good idea to take photographs of any valuable
possessions you are bringing.
Prepare a list of "Goods to Follow" or those items which you wish to take to Canada in the future. Include Model Numbers and Serial
Numbers of products if they have such numbers. It is also a good idea to take photographs of any valuable possessions.
Do you dental work and purchase your medication or vitamins. The provincial health plans in Canada don't normally cover the costs of
these so it might be cheaper if you have them done in your country.
If you don't want to hand carry all your settlement funds, you can open a bank account remotely with a Canadian bank to transfer your
settlement fund.
Canadian Immigration
There are strict regulations as to what possessions you can bring with you to Canada. If you are not sure, inquire at the Canadian
diplomatic mission or write to:
Canada Customs and Revenue Agency
Customs, Excise and Taxation Information Services
2265 St. Laurent Boulevard Ottawa
Ontario K1G 4K3
In Canada, toll-free: 1 800 461-9999
Outside Canada: (506) 636-5064
There are strict laws about the types of plants, food and pets you can bring to Canada. Before you leave your country, inquire at the
Canadian diplomatic mission or write to:
Canadian Food Inspection Agency
Animal Health Agriculture Canada
59 Camelot Drive Nepean, Ontario K1A 0Y9
(613) 225-2342 (ext. 4629)
Bring car registration, if you are bringing your car. Cars must meet Canadian safety and pollution control standards. Many cars are not
allowed into the country. If you are not sure, contact :
Transport Canada Place de Ville
Tower C 330 Sparks Street Ottawa
Ontario K1A 0N5 (613) 990-2309
If you don't have a place to stay upon landing in Canada such as friends and relatives, be sure to book an apartment or hotel for at least
one month. It would be best if the apartment has a phone and other basic furniture. Most apartments in Canada have a fridge and stove so
you don't have to worry about this.

It is a good idea to hand carry any important documents. Do not pack them in your suitcases. Imagine the trouble that you have to go through if your suitcases get
You might want to take photographs of your bags and luggage too, so that when they get lost during the flight , you can show these photos to the airline staff when
reporting your losses.

Chapter 26
Arriving in Canada
When you arrive in Canada, you must present your Permanent Resident visa to a customs or immigration officer in the Port of Entry. The officer will check your visa and travel document and ask you questions
similar to those on the immigration application form to verify that you are of good character and in good health. The officer may also request proof that you have sufficient funds to settle in Canada. Then, the officer
will authorize your admission to Canada as a permanent resident. You need to apply for your Permanent Resident Card as the point of entry. Read more about the Permanent Resident Card in the next chapter.
Checklist of things to do after arriving in Canada
Things to do
Apply for a Social Insurance Number (SIN) for everyone in your family who are planning to work.
Apply for the Provincial Health Card

The Permanent Resident Card
New Immigrants
Beginning June 28, 2002, it would be issued to everyone who have
successfully been approved as a Permanent Resident.
As soon as you enter Canada, you have to provide an address where the PR
Card can be mailed to you within 30 days.
If you don't know your mailing address, you have to contact the PR Call
Centre and provide them your mailing address.
You have to do this within 180 days after arrival in Canada. If you don't, then
you need to re-apply again and pay the fees again.
Existing Permanent Residents
Beginning September15, 2002, anyone who is already in Canada as a
Permanent Resident but not yet a Canadian citizen can apply
for the PR Card.

Your main sources of information are the classified advertisements in local newspapers and what you hear from other people. Some agencies which advertise
apartments may charge a fee. This does not mean they will find a home for you, but they may show you more of what is available. Be careful before you sign any
type of contract.
Once you decide on a price range, size, and preferred location, you should be able to identify several possible apartments. Normally, you telephone for an
appointment to see the apartments. Look for convenient parking, nearby bus routes, shopping, schools, and laundry facilities (washing machines) in or near the
building.
Ask the landlord or the person renting the apartment what facilities are included in the rent, such as parking, whether or not you can keep a pet and how many
people can live in the apartment. The landlord will hold the apartment for you after you pay a deposit (which will be applied to the rent) and you both sign an offer to
rent the apartment.
its own door, which can be locked, to a common hallway or to the street;
a kitchen with a sink and hot and cold water, countertop, shelves or cupboards and appliances such as a stove and a refrigerator;
closets and storage space;
a private bathroom with a sink, toilet and bath or shower.
a heating system;
light and electricity;
hot and cold water;
telephone lines; and
sewage pipes.
You should find out if the costs of electricity, gas, heat and water are included in the rent, or whether you will be charged directly by the utility companies.
Property taxes are paid by the landlord. You must pay the costs of telephone and cable television connection and the monthly bills for those services.
Furnished apartments should include beds, chairs, tables, floor covering, light fixtures, curtains, basic kitchen equipment in addition to utilities, a stove and a
refrigerator.
Canadian Immigration
Read it carefully before signing. Be sure you understand which utilities you will pay, which will be paid by the landlord and what penalty you may have to pay if you
leave before the lease is over. An immigrant-serving agency will be able to help you understand exactly what is expected of you.
The lease will most likely be for at least one year, and you will have to make an initial payment, possibly the first and last month's rent. You may also be asked for a
damage deposit, which will be returned to you when you leave if you have not caused any damage to the property beyond normal use. For this reason it is important
to note any damage and tell your landlord before you move in.
Canadian Immigration
Yes. In addition to furnished and unfurnished apartments, furnished bedrooms to rent, and houses for rent or for sale, there are also condominiums.

Chapter 29
Working in Canada
Before you are allowed to work in Canada, you will need to obtain a Social

Canada, you should get your SIN.

immediately practice your intended occupation once you arrive in

need to re-qualify in the province of your residence to practice
your profession.

Chapter 30
The Canadian Citizenship
If you decide to make Canada your home, you may want to become a Canadian citizen. Since 1977, Canadian law allows you to hold as many citizenships you want, but you may lose the citizenship of your
country of origin.
There are advantages to becoming a Canadian citizen. The rights, protections, and freedoms of a Canadian citizen are outlined in Canada's Constitution. As a citizen, you can vote and run for political office in
all federal and provincial elections. You have the right to hold a Canadian passport and to re-enter Canada no matter how long you remain out of the country. If you were born outside Canada, but at least one
of your parents was a Canadian citizen, you have the right to claim Canadian citizenship. Get legal advice.
You must be at least 18 years old to apply for citizenship. If your child is under 18, you may apply on his or her behalf when you apply for your own citizenship. Your child must sign the application if he or shi is
14 years of age or older. You may also wait until after you have received your Canadian citizenship before applying on behalf of your child.
You must live in Canada for at least three of the four years immediately before the date of your application. During this time, each day you were in Canada before your received permanent resident status
counts only half a day. Time spent outside the country attending school or on business might be counted towards the three-year requirement.
You must be able to speak French or English well enough to be understood in the community.
You must be familiar with Canada's political system, geography, and history. You must also know about your rights and responsibilities as a Canadian citizen. Citizenship courts provide free publications with
the information you need, and some settlement agencies offer courses that prepare you for the citizenship interview.
If you are 14 years of age or older, you must take and sign the Oath of Citizenship. In doing so, you swear allegiance to the Queen of Canada and her successors. You also swear that you will observe the
laws of Canada and fulfill your duties as a Canadian citizen.
You cannot become a Canadian citizen if you are under a deportation order; if you are on probation or parole or if you are in prison; if within the past three years you have been convicted of a criminal offence
for which you could receive a sentence of six months or more.
The Minister of Immigration has the power to waive citizenship requirements and to grant citizenship on compassionate grounds. Procedure Apply for citizenship at the nearest Citizenship Court. Look in the
blue pages of your telephone book to find the Citizenship Court nearest you. Look under Citizenship in the Government of Canada listings. Citizenship Court officers travel to some areas of Canada that don't
have Citizenship Courts.
If there is no Citizenship Court in your area, contact the following office: Registrar of Canadian Citizenship Department of Secretary of State Sydney, Nova Scotia B1P 6V6 You can fill out the application form
yourself or get help from a Citizenship Court officer. After completing the application, you must affirm or swear that the statements you made are true. You can do this at the Citizenship Court or before anyone
qualified to take oaths. Notary publics, commissioners for oaths, justices of the peace, and most lawyers can take oaths.
You must also attach the correct fee and any required documents to your application. Here are some of the other documents you need: - a birth certificate or passport to prove the date and place of your birth; two photographs taken within the last year; (these must be of a certain size and show a full front view of your head and shoulders; you must sign these photographs when you apply;) and - two pieces of
identification; for example a driver's license and social insurance card. Interview or Hearing
The next step is your interview or hearing with the "citizenship judge." The judge looks over your application and speaks with you in French or English, whichever you prefer. At the hearing, be prepared to
Canadian Immigration
answer simple questions about Canada's history and geography, its people and industry, and its form of government. You must also know: - the rights and privileges of citizenship; - the responsibilities of
citizenship; and - the enumerating and voting procedures in elections.
All the information you need is contained in the booklets you receive with your application. If you need help, ask the Citizenship Court about free citizenship classes. The Citizenship Court will contact you about
the date of your hearing or interview. If you have moved since you completed the application, or if you will be away from home for a long time, write to the Court and explain this.
If the Court cannot reach you, it may assume that you are no longer applying for citizenship. If this happens, you will have to apply again. If you are unable to attend the interview with the citizenship judge,
explain this to the Court before the date of the interview and make a new appointment. You cannot become a Canadian citizen if you do not go to the interview.
The Ceremony If your application for citizenship is approved, the Citizenship Court will send you a letter telling you the day, time, and place of the ceremony. Make sure the Court has your current address and
knows whether you can attend the ceremony on that date. At the ceremony, you take the "Oath of Citizenship." You must affirm that you are telling the truth or swear the Oath on the book of your faith or
religion. You may bring your own copy of your holy book. You receive your citizenship certificate at the ceremony.
This certificate shows that you area a Canadian citizen. When you become a Canadian citizen, you usually keep your citizenship for the rest of your life. However, you may be permitted to give up your
Canadian citizenship under certain conditions.

The Live-In Caregiver Program
The Live-in Caregiver Program provides professional caregivers for employment in Canada. Caregivers are individuals who are qualified to care
independently for children, the elderly or people who have disabilities.
There are three main requirements you will have to meet to qualify under the Live-in Caregiver Program:
Successful completion of the equivalent of a Canadian high school education. This requirement will help to ensure that participants who apply
for permanent residence after two years will be able to succeed in the general labor market. Studies indicate that the majority of new jobs in
Canada require at least a high school education.
Six months of full-time training or 12 months of experience in paid employment in a field or occupation related to the job you are seeking as a
live-in caregiver. You may have gained your training or experience in early childhood education, geriatric care, pediatric nursing or first aid, to
name just a few areas. You may have completed your training as part of your formal education. In order to meet the criteria for experience, you
must have completed one year of full-time paid employment, including at least six months of continuous employment with one employer, in that
field or occupation. This experience must have been obtained within the three years immediately prior to the day on which you submit an
application for an employment authorization to a Visa Officer.
Ability to speak read and understand either English or French. You must be able to function independently in a home setting. For example, you
must be able to contact emergency services if required and to understand labels on medication. You will be unsupervised for most of the day
and may be put in a position of having to communicate with someone outside the home. A good knowledge of English or French will also
enable you to read and understand for yourself what your rights and obligations are.
Live-in Criteria
An important requirement of the Program is that employees must live in the employer's home. The Live-in Caregiver Program exists only because
there is a shortage of Canadians to fill the need for live-in care work. There is no shortage of Canadian workers available for care giving positions
where there is no live-in requirement.
Fees
http://www.canadajobsandimmigration.com/version4/bonus1.htm (1 sur 4)2006-03-26 21:00:24
You must pay a fee for the processing of your application when you submit it. You can contact the Canadian consulate, embassy or high commission
nearest you to find out the amount of the fee. The amount is revised from time to time to reflect the cost involved in processing applications. Since the
fee only covers the cost of processing the application, you will not get your money back if the visa office refuses your application. Therefore, we
suggest that you review the program requirements carefully before making an application.
There will also be costs for a medical examination, passport and travel. You are responsible for these costs as well as the processing fee mentioned
above unless your employer offers to pay them for you.
The Application Procedure
Your employer will submit a request to hire you at a Human Resources Centre (HRC) in Canada. The HRC will ensure that no Canadians, permanent
residents or other temporary workers already in Canada are qualified and available to take the employer's offer of employment. Once the offer of
employment has been validated by the HRC and sent to the visa office in your country, an official from the visa office will contact you to determine
whether you are eligible to come to Canada as a live-in caregiver.
You will be asked for your diplomas, school certificates or transcripts listing the courses you have taken. Be honest about your education, training and
experience because you could be disqualified from the program if you are not. Your marital status and the number of children you have will not affect
the outcome of your application; you must be honest in providing this information.
If the visa office approves your application, you will be given instructions for medical tests. When our officials receive proof that your medical results
are satisfactory and that you have met all other requirements, you will be issued an employment authorization. An employment authorization is not a
travel document. You must also get a passport (and a visitor visa, if required). The requirement for a visitor visa will depend on the country you are
coming from.
Because of the existence of an agreement between the federal government and the province of Quebec, there are differences in the way the Program
operates for caregivers who will be working in Quebec. For more information, refer to the booklet published by the government of Quebec entitled
Working as a Live-in Caregiver in Quebec: A guide for foreign workers and their employers.
The Employment Authorization
An employment authorization from a Canadian visa office will allow you to work in Canada as a live-in caregiver. The employment authorization is
usually valid for one year. Make sure you renew your employment authorization before it expires. It is now possible to do this by mail through the
Canada Immigration Centre. You will need a letter from your employer stating that your job as a live-in caregiver is being offered for another year.
Include this letter in your application to renew your employment authorization. Remember that the document authorizes you to work only for the
employer named on the employment authorization. However, this does not mean you cannot change employers for personal or other reasons. If that
is the case, you must apply for and have received a new employment authorization before you go to work for the new employer. Both you and your
employer should be aware that you are free to change employers while in Canada. Immigration Canada will not deport you for looking for another
http://www.canadajobsandimmigration.com/version4/bonus1.htm (2 sur 4)2006-03-26 21:00:24
place to work.
Involvement in any illegal activity could result in the cancellation of your permission to work in Canada. You cannot, for example, work for any
employer except the employer named on your employment authorization. Furthermore, you cannot accept employment except as a live-in caregiver
nor can you work for a new employer, even for a "trial period," until you have a new employment authorization.
Applying for Permanent Residence in Canada
You need to complete at least two years of employment as a live-in caregiver to apply for permanent residence in Canada. Please note that the twoyear requirement does not include any extended time away from Canada. For example, if you go away on vacation for three months, that time will not
be included as part of the two years of employment. In some countries, you may need to reapply for a visitor visa to return to Canada. If you leave
Canada for more than one year or if your employment authorization has expired, you will have to reapply to the overseas visa office to return to
Canada under the Live-in Caregiver Program. Program participants who wish to leave the Program and return permanently to their home country are
free to do so at any time. However, adequate notice should be given to the employer.
Your application for permanent resident status could be cancelled if you misrepresented your education, training or experience to the Visa Officer
when you first applied under the Program.
If you apply to stay in Canada, you must complete an application for permanent resident status. At that time, you must prove you worked as a full-time
live-in caregiver for two years. To do this, you can use a statement of earnings or T4 slips as well as any other documentation you believe would help
to prove your work record. If you changed jobs since your arrival, you should have a record of employment from each of your former employers. You
will not have an ROE for your present job. If you have used your ROEs to apply for employment insurance, HRC staff can help you get copies if you
need them.
Your application for permanent residence in Canada will not be assessed on the basis of your financial situation, skills upgrading in Canada, volunteer
work, marital status or the number of dependants you may have back home. However, you could be found to be ineligible for permanent residence if
you, your spouse or any of your dependent children have a criminal record or a serious medical problem.
Live-in caregivers who work in Quebec will also be assessed on additional criteria, including knowledge of French, by provincial authorities. For further
information, see the booklet published by the Quebec government, entitled Working as a Live-in Caregiver in Quebec: A guide for foreign workers and
their employers.
Open Employment
Once you have received a favorable assessment on your application for permanent resident status, you may apply for an open employment
authorization. This will allow you to take any job you wish until you are granted permanent resident status. You will not receive your permanent
resident status immediately. Normally, there are many people applying for permanent residence in Canada at any given time, and you must wait your

turn.
Family Members
All your dependants can be included in your application for permanent residence and they can obtain their permanent resident status at the same time
as you. Your dependants abroad will be processed for permanent residence at the visa office in their country of residence, and they will not be issued
their immigrant visas until you have received yours, provided that the entire family passes medical and criminal screening and all other requirements
are met. All your dependants must pass medical and background checks even if they are not applying to join you in Canada right away. You cannot
be granted permanent resident status until all your dependants have passed their medical and background checks

The Provincial Nominee Program
What is a Provincial Nominee Program?
Citizenship and Immigration Canada has entered into bilateral agreements with interested provinces to permit the admission of a limited number of provincial
nominees. The program recognizes that provincial governments are best positioned to identify their unique economic needs that can be effectively addressed
by immigration. of provincial authorities in the selection of immigrants destined to their province. To date agreements have been signed with Newfoundland,
New Brunswick, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and British Columbia.
The province of Quebec cooperates with the Government of Canada to select its own immigrants.
The applicants are subject to Quebec's selection criteria, in addition to Federal medical and security clearance requirements. They must also pay an
additional fee for processing by a Quebec Delegation. Applicants who qualify under the Federal selection criteria may not necessarily satisfy Quebec's
selection requirements, and vice versa.
Citizenship and Immigration Canada retains the authority to make the final decision on an independent application using existing selection and admissibility
criteria, including security, criminal, and medical factors for candidates who hold Provincial Nominee Certificates.
Is it easier to meet the Provincial Nominee Program selection criteria?
Generally province recruits immigrants who have specialized professional skills and high likelihood to settle successfully in the province. If you possess those
skills the province is looking for, it may be for your advantage to apply under PNP, since a total required number of points a provincial nominee has to achieve
to be accepted is lower than under Federal Selection criteria. However, there are no guarantees. Obtaining minimum pass mark score, or any other score,
does not automatically qualify an applicant to be a Provincial Nominee. There are a number of other factors to be considered by a Province before exercising
its prerogative in nominating any candidate as a Provincial Nominee
PROVINCIAL NOMINEE PROGRAMS
The Provincial Nominee Program allows each province to nominate or select immigrants who will contribute to the particular labor
and economic needs of that province. Each province is allowed to establish its own selection criterions and procedures to choose
immigrants according to their ability to integrate and successfully settle in that province.
Similar to the Independent Immigration Program, applicants are selected on the basis of a point system designed to target individuals who will for fill the labor
and economic needs of that province. Points are attributed on various grounds, such as education, work experience, age, etc. Each province sets the number

Canada and the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador. This immigration program aims at fulfilling specific economic and
industrial development goals within the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
The program identifies and recruits immigrants who have specialized skills, which will be of benefit to the Province in further developing our economy. The
program will allow the Province to recruit persons with occupational and entrepreneurial skills.
The cost to apply for this program is $1,000 (CDN). Payment must be made by a bank money order or certified cheque payable to the Newfoundland
Exchequer Account. This is a non-refundable government fee and its payment does not guaranteed the approval of your application.
Procedure
http://www.canadajobsandimmigration.com/version4/bonus2.htm (2 sur 6)2006-03-26 21:00:29
The process begins with the Province identifying and nominating persons it wishes to immigrate here, and who in our estimation will contribute to our
industrial and economic development. Currently there are two programs:
1. 1. Business Program; and
2. Skilled Workers.
A Applicants are assessed on a point scoring system. Certain number of points is awarded to factors such as: age, education, intended occupation, work
experience, language, adaptability whether or not you have guaranteed employment in Newfoundland and Labrador. You must score at least 40 points in
order to qualify. The Government of Newfoundland and Labrador will do checks to determine the applicant's track record as a businessperson and
accreditation as a skilled worker - consistent with their chosen field for Newfoundland and Labrador. These background and other checks will also include
such of the nominees' family members who may be eligible for immigration.
If your application is successful, a Nomination Certificate will be issued to the visa office where the nominee makes an application to immigrate to Canada.
This certificate identifies the person as a nominee of the Province, and will be used at a Canadian visa office overseas to process the applicant. The Province
will then notify to apply for Canadian permanent residency at the nearest Canadian visa office. The Government of Canada is responsible for processing
these visa requests in addition to reviewing the regular requirements for health, security background checks, etc. .
The nominee must apply for their permanent resident visa within six (6) months of the date appearing on the Nominee Certificate.
NEW BRUNSWICK
The Canada/New Brunswick Provincial Nominee Agreement was signed in February 1999. The Agreement allows the Province an
Under the Provincial Nominee Program, the Province seeks immigrants with jobs skills and other attributes that will come to New Brunswick to fill labor market
shortages or support employment or business expansion.

adaptability,
skill shortage (for job offer applicants only), and
business experience (for business plan applicants only).
These factors are awarded points. In order to qualify an applicant must have a minimum of 50 points to be considered under the New Brunswick Provincial
Nominee Program.
Manitoba
Situated at the heart of North America, Manitoba offers convenient and virtually tariff-free access to the United States and Mexico through a north-south trade
corridor. The province is an established transportation and distribution hub with developed industries in transportation equipment, food processing, agricultural
equipment, aerospace and more. The central time zone location and well-developed telecommunications infrastructure make Manitoba ideal for any business
requiring regular, reliable contact with customers and suppliers from around the world.
As Manitoba's economy grows, there has been an increasing demand for skilled workers to support the Province's garment, construction, farming and
aerospace industries.
In June 1998, the Federal government of Canada and the Province of Manitoba signed the Provincial Nominee Agreement. This
agreement allows Manitoba to recruit and nominate prospective immigrants who have the skills to fill specific Manitoba labor
market demands, and contribute to Manitoba's economic growth.
Since the year 2000, the Province of Manitoba has implemented a Business Immigration Program to attract entrepreneurs who
will expand Manitoba's manufacturing and service industries.
SASKATCHEWAN
The Canada/Saskatchewan Provincial Nominee Agreement was signed on March 16, 1998. The Agreement allows Saskatchewan
officials to actively recruit and nominate individuals who have the potential to be of significant economic and industrial benefit to
the province.

All applicants must obtain 15 points on the Occupational Factor, and a minimum of 60 points.
Procedure
All applications under the Provincial Nominee Program must be submitted to the Province of Saskatchewan for review and acceptance. If approved a
nomination certificate will be provided directly to Citizenship and Immigration Canada by the Province, and a letter of nomination will be forwarded to the
applicant.
Citizenship and Immigration Canada will only consider Provincial Nominee Program applicants after receiving the nomination certificate from the Province.
Applicants will then be required to submit additional information and documentation as required by Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
BRITISH COLUMBIA
The government of British Columbia is currently developing a Provincial Nominee Program. The Provincial Nominee Program
(PNP) supports the recruitment of foreign workers with highly specialized skills, to meet critical skill shortages faced by British
Columbia employers. The program will also support the expedited immigration of foreign residents with strong business
experience and skills, and a solid business project already identified in BC.
The PNP program enables B.C. to nominate 1000 people plus their families between now and May, 2003. The program is available to all sectors of the
economy that experience critical skill shortages. However, the initial implementation of PNP will be staged into selected sectors, where skill shortages are
already well established. The first stage of implementation will begin with foreign nurses in the early New Year. Based on employer demand, it is expected the
next stage of implementation will include sectors like information technology. The PNP program may also apply on a case-by-case basis in specific situations
where an employer can clearly demonstrate that domestic recruitment efforts have been unsuccessful.
The PNP program is employer driven and nominees are required to have arranged employment prior to progressing with the application process. Employers
must clearly demonstrate that domestic recruitment efforts have been unsuccessful and that a legitimate skill shortage exists before offering employment to a
nominee.

ACTIVITIES:
After reading this sample resume, you might find yourself somewhat intimidated. "How could I ever
compete with someone like that?" For those of you who are near graduation, don't worry--very few have a
background that strong (and if they do, E&Y has probably already hired them for after college as well). For
those of you who have time remaining before graduation and have yet to fully form your end product, you
can still change your work experience so that you will also look strong on paper.
Remember, looking good on paper is only the first step. The sample resume is provided primarily for
formatting purposes. Even someone with a mediocre background will look much stronger by following that
tight, concise format and structure.
A visitor to our site recently wrote: "One company said they called me in because it was the best resume
and cover letter he had seen in ten years." This format works. Use it.
For a quick start on developing your resume, download one of our Quickstart Resume Templates to develop
a custom resume using the word processing format of your choice.
You are welcome to browse this material as a visitor of our site, but please do not violate the copyright by
making copies of this material, either electronic, paper or any other type, with the exception of one paper
copy of each page permitted for your own personal use and reference.

The officer will award points for your language ability based on what you send
with your application. You will not know how many points the CIC Officer gives
you for your language skills or if the CIC Officer is satisfied that you have
clearly demonstrated the level of language skills you claim on your application.

You must meet the following minimum work experience requirements to allow
you to apply as a skilled worker:
You must have at least one year of full-time work experience. You must
have been paid for this work.
Your work experience must be in the category of Skill Type 0, or Skill
Level A or B on the Canadian National Occupational Classification
(NOC). (See below for instructions.)
You must have had this experience within the last 10 years.
1 Find the title of any full-time jobs you had in the past 10 years using
National Occupation Classification list. This is a list of all jobs that
are in Skill Type 0, Skill Level A or B on the NOC. Write down the
four-digit code located to the left of your jobs title.
2 Go to the NOC Web site and type your four-digit job-code in the
Quick Search box. Make sure you press the GO button. A
description of your occupation will appear. Make sure the
description and Main Duties describe what you did at your last
jobs.
Note: you do not have to meet the Employment Requirements
listed in the description.
If the initial description and list of main duties matches what you
did at your last jobs, you can count this experience when you apply
as a skilled worker. You can also earn points in Factor 3 of the
Selection Factors.
If the description does not match your work experience then you
might not have the experience you need to apply as a skilled
worker. Look through the NOC list to see if another occupation
matches your experience. Check all of the jobs you had in the past
10 years to see if you have at least one year of work experience in
a job that will qualify you as a skilled worker.
If you do not meet the minimum work experience requirements, your application
as a Skilled Worker will be refused.

JANE GEORGE
When the Baffin regions health system
flunked its accreditation review this past
September, it did so because of a long
list of failings that threaten to harm
patients, demoralize staff, and create
grave financial risks for the Nunavut
government.
The report, by the Canadian Council on
Health Services Accreditation, was
finished in September 2005, but not
released to the public until MLAs
demanded that it be tabled in the
legislative assembly.

Types of Housing
There are many different types of housing available in Canada.
Cost
The cost of housing varies widely. Prices depend on the location, age and
condition of the apartment or house, and the local market. You can expect to
pay from $350 a month for a room to $2,000 a month for a luxury apartment or a
house. Housing is usually less expensive if it is outside a large city. Purchase
prices for houses range considerably depending on the city, town or location
where you buy.
When you are budgeting for your housing costs, you may have to allow as much
as 35 to 50 percent of your income. This should include the cost of such things
as heating, electricity and other utilities.
Rented Apartments
Every apartment should have:
a kitchen with a sink and hot and cold water, countertop, shelves or
cupboards and appliances such as a stove and a refrigerator;
closets and storage space;
a private bathroom with a sink, toilet and bath or shower.
a heating system;
light and electricity; and
running hot and cold water.
You should find out if the costs of electricity, gas, heat and water are included in
the rent, or whether you will be charged extra for these services. Property taxes
are paid by the landlord. You will be responsible for paying the costs of the
telephone, Internet, and cable or satellite television connections.
Furnished housing should include beds, tables, chairs, lamps, curtains, basic
kitchen equipment, a stove and a refrigerator. Unfurnished housing may include
a stove and a refrigerator, but not always.
Rented Houses
Renting a house is similar to renting an apartment, but it will cost more. Rental
houses are not usually furnished.
If you rent a house, make sure you inquire about appliances. Some rented
houses do not include a stove and fridge. Others may include more appliances,
such as a clothes washer and a dryer.
The tenant usually pays for utilities and heat in a rented house.
Signing a lease
Once you agree to rent an apartment or a house, your landlord may ask you to
sign a lease. A lease is a one- or two-page agreement that describes the rental
property, the cost and the utilities that are included. It may also say whether a
parking spot or a storage area is included, and whether pets are allowed.
Most leases are for one year. Be sure you understand which utilities you will
have to pay for and which will be paid by the landlord. Find out if there is a
penalty if you leave before the end of the lease. You will have to make an initial
payment, possibly the first and last months rent. You may also be asked for a
damage deposit, which will be returned to you when you leave if you have not
caused any damage to the property beyond normal use.
Read your lease carefully before signing it. If you dont understand some of the
legal terms in the lease, contact an organization that helps immigrants, or
someone you know and trust who can help you. Once you sign the lease, it is a
legal document.
Buying a house or a condominium is a big step. You may want to wait until you
have been in Canada a few years before you become a home-owner.
Most homes in Canada are sold through real estate agents, but some are sold
privately. When you buy a house, you should work with a real estate agent, who
will help you choose one that is right for you.
There are many hidden costs and fees in buying a house. They may include
lawyers fees or notarys fees, and taxes. There are also costs to maintain a
house, and costs for utilities, insurance, and so on. Make sure you know exactly
what your costs will be before you buy.
Unless you have enough money for the full price of the house, you will need to
arrange a long-term loan known as a mortgage. Mortgage loans are available
from banks and other financial institutions.
When you have decided on the house that you want to buy, your real estate
agent will help you prepare a written offer. The offer normally includes a deposit.
If the seller accepts the offer, it becomes a legal agreement to purchase.

Renting
any Canadians rent housing, and so do most newcomers, at
least for the first few years. Apartments and houses for rent
are usually listed in the classified advertising section of the
newspaper. It is also a good idea to walk around an area you
would like to live in, and see if there are any signs posted on or by the
buildings. Do not take the first place you see -- try to shop around a little, see
what's available. Prices often vary considerably.
Some apartments can be rented by the month, but with most rented housing
you sign a lease for a year. This is a legally binding contract between you and
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomer/welcome/wel-08e.html (1 sur 4)2006-03-26 21:44:03
the landlord. Make sure you understand exactly what you have to pay for, and
what is included in your rent. For example, do you pay for the heating costs or
are they included? Canada is a cold country in the winter, and heating can be
expensive. Are you allowed to have pets? Are the fridge and stove included?
Do you have to pay municipal taxes? Also, you may have to pay a security
deposit (such as the first month's rent) to rent the apartment you have
chosen. Read the lease over carefully before you sign it.
You should also purchase tenant's insurance to cover the costs of replacing
the household contents of your apartment. It is probably a good idea to ask
someone in your local community group or immigrant-serving organization for
information about housing. They can also explain the legal terms used in
leases.
Remember: Avoid signing a lease if you plan to move again soon.
Buying
Buying a home is a big step, and you might want to wait until you are settled
before you do so. Most homes in Canada are sold through real estate agents,
although some owners do it themselves. You may see "For Sale" signs
posted in front of homes, and you can also read the classified advertising
section of the daily newspaper.
When buying a house, it's important to remember that there are many hidden
costs. These may include the agent's fee, in some provinces, as well as
lawyer's or notary's fees, yearly property tax, house insurance, registration
fees, various home buyer taxes, and the cost of maintaining the house -- heat,
hydro, water, sewer, and so on. Make sure you know exactly what your costs
will be before you buy.
You may want to find out about the First Home Loan Insurance Program, run

Getting a telephone
You will want to get a telephone installed quickly, so that you can reach the
people and the services you need from the comfort of your home. Bell
Canada operates most of the telephone service across Canada, but you can
find out the name of the telephone company in your area in a telephone book.
The Customer Service number should be in the first few pages of the book.
The telephone company in your area normally has phonecentres in large
shopping malls. You can visit them to get your service set up.
You can either rent a telephone from your telephone company and pay month
by month or buy one. The cost of making local calls is covered by the monthly
service fee, which is added to the cost of renting the telephone. Long distance
and overseas calls are not covered by this monthly fee, and can be quite
expensive. Many telephone companies offer special plans which can reduce
the costs of long distance calls. Phone cards, which can be used to call
anywhere from any phone including public telephones, are a cost-effective
way to reduce long-distance charges.
Remember: Canada is a very large country, so even when you're calling
within the same province or city, long distance charges may apply.
Furnishing
Chances are you're going to need some basic furniture and household
appliances. You can buy new, which can be costly, or wait for stores to have
sales and buy things gradually. You can also buy used furniture and
appliances, which is what many Canadians do. Articles or furniture for sale
listings are found in the classified advertising section of the newspaper. You
can also try used furniture stores, church and local rummage or garage sales,
or community organizations. Your local community immigrant service
organization should be able to help you with names and addresses.

province. In some provinces you will have to pay a small monthly fee for this
insurance. It is important to apply for your health insurance card as soon as
possible. You will receive your health insurance card from the province where
you live. You can get an application form at a doctor's office, a hospital, a
pharmacy or an immigrant-serving organization. You can also get forms from
the provincial ministry responsible for health, listed in the blue pages of your
telephone book. You will need to show some identification, such as your birth
certificate or passport, or your Confirmation of Permanent Residence
(IMM 5292). The permanent resident card may also be presented.
Permanent residents in British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec and New
Brunswick have a three-month eligibility waiting period. During this time, you
should apply for temporary private, health insurance coverage. Private
insurance companies are listed in the yellow pages of the telephone book,
usually under "Insurance." Private health insurance is also available for
services which are not covered under the government health insurance plan.
These might include dental costs or private hospital rooms. Some employers
also offer additional health insurance for a monthly deduction from your
paycheque. In most provinces, health insurance does not cover the cost of
prescription drugs, dental care, ambulance services and prescription eye
glasses.
Needy refugee claimants and refugees living in the provinces which have the
three-month eligibility waiting period can receive emergency and essential
health services. The cost of these services is covered by the Interim Federal
Health Program.
Remember: Each member of your family needs his or her own Health
Insurance Card. Always bring your card with you when you go to the doctor or
the hospital.
A Health Insurance Card must not be exchanged with anyone else. It is for
your use only and you could lose the benefits it provides by letting other
people use it. You could also face criminal charges and be removed from
Canada.
Emergency help
Medical surveillance
During the medical exam you underwent before becoming a Canadian
resident, you may have been told that you needed a follow-up medical exam
once you got to Canada. This is known as medical surveillance for those who
have an inactive infectious disease. You must report, by telephone, to the
public health authority of the province or territory where you live within 30
days of entering Canada. You will find this number in the blue pages of your
telephone book. This is very important for your health, and for the health of
your fellow Canadians.
Pregnancy
Maternity leave is the right of all working mothers in Canada. If you are
pregnant and have to stop working for a while, you can take leave, from your
employer for a set period of time. You may also be entitled to paid leave, or
maternity benefits. You can get more information from the provincial ministry
responsible for labour or from a Human Resources Development Canada
office.
For help and information before and after your baby is born, contact your local
community service centre or hospital. They offer prenatal courses, medical
help, nursing care, and a way to meet other new mothers. They can also give
you information on registering the birth with the province, so that you receive
an official birth certificate. They can also advise you about birth control and
abortion.

to have a few lessons before you take your test. Look in the yellow pages
under "Driving Instruction."
Remember: It is a legal requirement to carry your driver's licence with you
whenever you drive. You should also carry your car registration and vehicle
permit with you. It is good advice to carry a copy of your car insurance
certificate.
Buying a car
Cars can cost a lot of money, whether they are used or new. Make sure you
can afford the upkeep, the gas, the monthly payments and the costs of
registering and insuring it. Some Canadians opt to lease cars. Leasing can be
handy, but there are a number of hidden costs involved, such as
administrative fees or handling taxes. Whichever option you choose, make
sure you understand exactly what your financial obligations are.
Car insurance is another major expense. All cars must be registered with the
provincial motor vehicle licensing agency where you live, and must be
insured. This is the law. Car insurance can be expensive, but it protects you
and other drivers in case of an accident. You buy insurance through private
insurance companies, listed in the yellow pages under "Insurance". Some
provinces also sell insurance through provincial corporations. Shop around for
the best rates. An accident-free record will help you get a better insurance
rate. In most provinces, you can obtain more information by calling the
Insurance Bureau of Canada or visiting their website at www.ibc.ca
In case of an accident
Call 911 or your local emergency number right away if you need medical help.

Opening an account
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomer/welcome/wel-09e.html (1 sur 4)2006-03-26 21:44:24
Most banks have various kinds of accounts, and you can discuss which kind
you need with them. To open one, you should be prepared to provide certain
kinds of personal information, as well as various forms of identification, such
as your passport, or your Social Insurance Number. The bank will need your
Social Insurance Number for income tax purposes. This is the same for
anyone, at any bank.
Remember: Post Office savings accounts do not exist in Canada.
Direct deposit
Direct deposit has become very popular with Canadians. It means that money
owed to you, such as a paycheque or a government payment, is put
electronically into your account. You have access to the money immediately,
and you don't have to wait for the cheque to come in the mail or line up at the
bank to deposit it. You can request this service if you expect to receive
regular payments. Most government departments offer this service, as well as
many companies.
Sending money
If you send money outside Canada, don't send cash. Use a certified cheque
or money order. Ask your bank about these options. You can also buy a
money order at the post office or wire money through private money order/

transfer services (which are listed in the yellow pages of the telephone book).
Telemarketing
You may get calls from people who are trying to sell you something. They
may be honest; but then again, they might be dishonest. The best way to
protect yourself is never to give out any personal or financial information to
anyone over the telephone. If you feel uneasy about the caller, just hang up.

Dual Citizenship
What is meant by dual citizenship?
Every independent nation makes its own decision as to who its citizens will be.
You possess dual or multiple citizenship when more than one country
recognizes you as its citizen.
Unlike the law in effect in Canada up to 1977, the current Citizenship Act allows
Canadian citizens to acquire a foreign nationality without automatically losing
their Canadian citizenship. Since February 15, 1977, a Canadian citizen who
acquires another nationality may retain Canadian citizenship, unless he or she
voluntarily applies to renounce it and the application is approved by a citizenship
judge. The current act thus makes it possible to have two or more citizenships
and allegiances at the same time for an indefinite period.
Consequently, you may have the rights and obligations conferred by each of
these countries on its citizens. Whenever you are in a country that recognizes
you as a citizen, its laws take priority over the laws of any other country of which
you may be a citizen. International treaties may, however, allow exceptions to
this rule.
A person may have several citizenships at the same time. For example, a
person who was born in a country other than Canada, who applies for
citizenship and is naturalized in Canada, and then naturalized in a third country
may be a citizen of all three countries. However, cases of dual citizenship are
more common. Although this pamphlet deals primarily with dual citizenship, the
information contained in it applies equally to people who are citizens of more
than two countries. The terms dual citizenship and dual nationality are now
used interchangeably.
If you, your parents, your grandparents and your spouse, if you are married,
were all born in Canada, and you have not become the citizen of any other
country, then you most likely possess only one citizenship: Canadian.
However, if one or more of these people were born outside Canada or acquired
another citizenship, this might result in your having dual citizenship, depending
on the laws of the countries concerned. For example, if you were born in
Canada and one of your parents or your spouse was born outside Canada, you
might be considered a citizen of your parents or your spouses former
homeland, even if you never asked to be one. Dual citizenship occurs because
citizenship can be obtained in more than one way: through country of birth,
naturalization, parents, grandparents or, in rare cases, marriage.
Citizenship is a complex matter because of the great variety of citizenship laws
throughout the world. Some countries allow dual citizenship while others take
away the citizenship of a person who acquires another citizenship. Some do not
recognize a persons new citizenship. The laws that apply to your case are
generally the ones in force at the time of the event that affects your citizenship
(your birth or marriage, or your parents birth or marriage, for instance). This is
why determining your present citizenship status can be a difficult and lengthy
process.
Before the Citizenship Act of February 15, 1977, Canadian law limited dual
citizenship. It also provided more ways to gain or lose citizenship than does our
current law. Canadians who became citizens of another country before that date
should check to see if they are still Canadians. Since that date, Canadian law,
like the laws of several other countries, has allowed dual citizenship.

I am one of the many who just recently viewed your site. I have been planning to
migrate to Canada since last year and have started to work on my papers. I have been
consulting the Canadian Embassy website for instructions on how to apply etc. I have
almost completed my documents for my application and am just working on a few
things to fully complete them. The reason I emailed you is that I am very interested in
acquiring a copy of your ebook to use it as my guide before i file my application JB
It's indeed a blessing to stumble upon your website. I am also a Christian, Filipino
wanting to migrate to Canada. I am doing the necessary preparations on my own
because I find the fees charged by consultancy firms way too unreasonable, and as
you have said, we do not know the kind of service they give. I'm currently working in
Singapore as Deputy Editor for a publishing house. I just have one question as I'm not
sure if this is mentioned in your book I'm buying (and promoting to my friends) - Can I
file my application here in Singapore and then move back to the Philippines after two
months? I needed to go back home for the meantime, but I prefer filing my application
here since it is faster as some of my friends have proved. In short, I want to work in
Manila while I wait for the result of my application, but I'm willing to come to Singapore
if I need to go for interview, etc. MM
I am interested to apply to Canada as immigrant and contactad to consultance center

ABOUT CANADA
Map of Canada
Geography
Canada is located in the continent of North America. The country stretches
from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. The Arctic Ocean is north and the
United States is south. Diversity is the keynote of Canada's geography, which
includes fertile plains suitable for agriculture, vast mountain ranges, lakes and
rivers. Wilderness forests give way to Arctic tundra in the Far North.

Capital
The capital is Ottawa located in the province of Ontario.
Languages
The Official Languages Act makes French and English the official languages of
Canada. English is spoken by about 59% of Canadians while 23% of the
populations speaks French. Some 18% have either more than one mother
tongue or a mother tongue other than English or French, such as Chinese,
Italian, German, Polish, Spanish, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Arabic, Dutch,
Tagalog, Greek, Vietnamese, Cree, Inuktitut, or other languages.
Population
Canada's population by the end of 2001 is over 30 Million.
Government
Canada is a Constitutional Monarchy (we recognize the Queen of England in
our Constitution, however, she does play a role in government) and a federal
state with a democratic Parliament. The Parliament of Canada, in the nation's
capital, Ottawa, consists of the House of Commons, whose members are
elected, and the Senate, whose members are appointed. On average, members
of Parliament are elected every four years. Our current Prime Minister is Jean
Chretien.
Currency
The money used in Canada is also called a dollar $. Don't confuse this with
the American Dollar. Canada has its own currency that is separate and distinct
from the USA. If you want to know the conversion of Canadian Dollar to US or
US Dollar to Canadian, you can check your local newspaper or inquire from
any banking institution. The Canadian dollar is divided into 100 cents.
Standard of Living
Canadians enjoy one of the best standards of living in the world. Canada ranks
sixth in the world in terms of standard of living, after the United States,
Switzerland, Luxembourg, Germany, and Japan. Canada's rank among nations
tends to rise even higher in assessments that consider GDP per capita along
with other factors that contribute to "quality of life."
Education
Canada has one of the best educational system school in the world today.
Canada's public school is free to the public up to the secondary level. Various
government loans and assistance are available to students in university.
Students go to school that may include 6 to 8 years at elementary level, 4 or 5
years of secondary school and 3 or 4 years at the university undergraduate
level.
Sports
Canada's most popular sports include ice skating, swimming, ice hockey, crosscountry and alpine skiing, baseball, tennis, basketball and golf. Ice hockey and
lacrosse are considered as Canada's national sports.
Weather
There are many weather variations in this huge country, ranging from the
permanently frozen icecaps north of the 70th parallel to the luxuriant
vegetation of British Columbia's west coast. Canada's most populous regions,
which lie in the country's south along the U.S. border, enjoy four distinct
seasons. Here daytime summer temperatures can rise to 35C and higher,
while lows of -25C are not uncommon in winter. More moderate temperatures
are the norm in spring and fall.

Wrong! Not when it comes to our attitudes towards the disbaled. Especially
government attitudes to immigration and the disabled.
Did you know, for instance, that it's against the law to bring a disabled child
or adult to live in this country? Even a member of your family?
No? Well, you're not alone.
Few Canadians are aware of this cruel law that stems from the ignorant old
days.
But, despite rare court challenges over the years by stunned parents and
families, the draconian law persists.
It's a stand that a wealthy South African entrepreneur has been battling for
the past four years, a costly fight that has finally arrived in the Supreme
Court of Canada for a decision -- expected within the next two months.
David Hilewitz desperately wants to bring his 21-year-old son Gavin with him
to live in Canada. Although his own application has been granted, his son
has consistently been refused entry -- because he's mentally challenged.
Despite the fact Canada frequently states it's anxious to attract quality
immigrants, especially successful business entrepreneurs such as the multimillionaire Hilewitz, they're shown the door if they attempt to bring their
disabled family members with them.
This rejection is based on a clause in the Immigration Act which bars
children or adults who would place "excessive demands" on health and
social services. This is enforced without exception, even if the family, like the
Hilewitzes, can well afford to pay for private education and any necessary
assistance or services.
This is not about someone trying to "buy" his way into the country. This is a
story about a father courageously fighting an archaic and unfair law that
should not exist.
In fact, when I mention this law to people, their reaction is invariably
disbelief, then shock and surprise -- and finally, disgust.
Surely, they say, that's discrimination? They cannot believe a country that's
so welcoming to everyone, no matter what their race, religion, country or
even (often) dubious history, would bar others on the basis of their
handicaps.
Although fair-minded people would agree this is true, the law is upheld
rigorously.
Perhaps more surprising is that such a severe law isn't challenged far more
often, not only by hopeful, would-be immigrant families who've had their
dreams crushed but by fair-minded average Canadians.
But for most potential immigrants, a lengthy and costly legal suit against the
very government from which they're seeking permission to stay, is out of the
question.
The last court challenge to the law was in 1991 by Angela Chesters, the wife
of a Canadian citizen. Her husband was promoted from England back to
Canada -- but they were told she would be barred entry because she uses a
wheelchair.
Despite the fact both would have been gainfully employed, they were told
her disability was the only consideration in barring her. After a couple of
failed court challenges, the couple eventually gave up the struggle and
http://successful-immigration-to-canada.blogspot.com/ (2 sur 5)2006-03-27 05:27:00
resettled in Germany.
Chesters said at the time that the law "doesn't fit with the picture of Canada
as being a free country, so generous and so accepting of minorities." How
right she is!
I personally understand her bitterness and frustration.
I'm a hard-working Canadian citizen, yet my daughter Sarah is not welcome
here -- because she's challenged.
In fact, in order to obtain precious immigrant status years ago, I had to sign
an affidavit stating I'd never attempt to bring her here to live, under any
circumstances -- or risk arrest. It was a heartbreaking decision to make.
There is plenty of Canadian anger vented when criminals are allowed entry
and continue their activities once they arrive, but no one says a word it
seems when a challenged or disabled person is denied a future with their
family here.
Yet the unbelievable financial cost and societal damage caused by such
criminals, including incarceration and ensuring their "rights" are upheld, is
surely far beyond anything a new Canadian's disabled family member could
ever incur.
What's more, given a choice, I'm certain I know who Canadians would prefer
to allow into the country.
I also know that a father having to bitterly fight through the courts to have
his son by his side is not about money, it's about bad laws. And this one
stinks.

Prior to getting involved with information technology here in Canada, I worked as a Branch
Manager for Capitol Development Bank in Manila. I dealt mainly with investment banking,
branch marketing and portfolio management. I also worked with UCPB, SunLife of Canada and
Systems Technology Institute. Feel free to verify my character and credentials with these
companies if you want to.
And here's my educational background :
Note. However, none of these accomplishments in work or school can compare to my pride of
being a Christian, boasting in Christ my Savior. It is the Lord who gave me all the talents and
gifts, thus it is my desire to use these in helping others achieve their goals too.
I offer my sincerity. I guarantee that your satisfaction is our business. We are here to help
you in our own little way. Not to steal your hard-earned money. And somehow, if you will allow
us, we also wanted to be your friend here in Canada. You will notice that the price of this

My reason is simple. To inspire you to learn the immigration process by yourself before
spending thousands on consultancy fees! And learning about the immigration process is the
smartest thing you can do as a prospective immigrant.
I know how you feel. I know what I am talking about. I've been there before, just like where
you are right now. I am also an immigrant with humble beginnings. That is why we understand.
It is my prayer that the Lord will grant your desire to immigrate to Canada!
Always,
Tess Rupprecht

but I will try to be help to you to the best of my personal and legal capacity.

Medical Instructions
A medical examination is obligatory for yourself, your spouse or common-law partner and your dependent
children, even if they are not accompanying you to Canada. If you are a divorced or separated parent, a
minor child of whom you have joint or sole custody is considered your dependent child, even if he or she
usually lives with the other parent and is not accompanying you to Canada.
Canadian immigration law defines as inadmissible to Canada a person who is suffering from any disease,
disorder, disability or other health impairment as a result of the nature, severity or probable duration of
which, in the opinion of a medical officer concurred with by at least one other medical officer, they are or
are likely to be a danger to public health or to public safety, or their admission would cause or might
reasonably be expected to cause excessive demands on health or social services. If your family member is
inadmissable, you will also be inadmissible.
You will receive the forms and instructions for the medical examination, as well as the list of designated
doctors in your country of residence, when a positive selection decision is made (usually at the time of the
interview or when the decision is made to waive the interview). It is up to you to make an appointment with
the doctor of your choice. You are also responsible for paying all the fees for the examination.
The permanent resident visa has the same validity as the medical results, that is, 12 months from the date of
the first examination or test.

Medical Instructions
Everyone included in your application, whether accompanying you or not, will be required to undergo a

passports as evidence of identity. If each of your family members does not already have an individual
passport, you should apply to obtain them now.

Medical Instructions
Everyone included in your application, whether accompanying you or not, must undergo a medical
examination with a physician on the list of designated medical practitioners. If you are a divorced or
separated parent, a minor child is considered your dependent child if you have joint or sole custody, even if
he or she usually lives with the other parent and is not accompanying you to Canada. You will receive
instructions for the medical exam after your application has been assessed by a Canadian visa officer.
After you receive the necessary medical forms, you and your family members must undergo medical
examinations with one of the doctors on the list of designated medical practitioners, unless you or your
family members live in a country not included on the list. If you wish to have your medical examinations in
a country not included on this list, you must inform us and we will ensure that you receive the appropriate
list.
You will be responsible for the costs of the medical examination for all your family members.
At the time of medical examination, you and all family members will be required to present individual
passports as evidence of identity. If each of your family members does not already have a valid
individual passport, you should apply to obtain them now.
Applicants may, at any time, request that medical instructions be issued, and may undergo an immigration
medical examination, at their own risk. It is important to note, however, that undergoing an immigration
medical examination does not guarantee that a permanent resident visa will be issued.
The permanent resident visa has the same validity period as the medical results, that is, 12 months from the
date of the first examination or test.

Police Certificates/Clearances
You must obtain certificates of good conduct from the police in jurisdiction (country, state or territory )
where you now live before submitting your applications to the Consulate General. The exception is the
Hong Kong Certificates of No Criminal Conviction (see below). An original certificate/clearance is required
from the police force in every jurisdiction in which you and your accompanying family members have lived
six months or longer since reaching 18 years of age.
It is your responsibility to contact the police or relevant authorities to obtain the police certificate or
clearance. You may have to provide information or documentation such as photographs, fingerprints or your
addresses and periods of residence in that country. You may also be asked to pay a fee for the service.
The police in some jurisdictions will forward the police certificates/clearances directly to you, in which case
you should attach it to your application. The police in other jurisdictions may not provide you with your
police certificate/clearance, but will forward it directly to the Consulate General instead. In such cases,
attach a separate sheet to the Checklist stating the police certificates/clearance you have applied for and the
date you sent your application. Should the police certificate/clearance arrive at the Consulate General before
your application is submitted, we will hold it for up to six months. Please note that the Consulate General
will not follow up with other organizations on your behalf should documents go astray in the mail.

Medical Instructions
Instructions for medical examinations will be forwarded to you after your application has been
received by the Consulate General.
Please note that medical examinations are undertaken entirely at your own risk and expense. The completion
of the medical examination in no way guarantees that immigrant visas will be issued to you and your
dependants. Should you subsequently be refused a visa, the cost of the medical examination remains your
responsibility.
If your application for immigration to Canada is successful, your Immigrant Visa will be valid for 12 months
from the date you commenced the medical examination. If you have dependants residing or studying
overseas, they will also need to complete a medical examination before a visa can be issued.

Obtaining Police Certificates/Clearances
You must provide a police certificate or clearance, or record of no information for yourself, your spouse or
common-law partner (if applicable) and all of your family members indicating any criminal record or
absence of criminal record. Everyone in your family aged 18 or over requires a police certificate/clearance
from each country in which they have lived for six months or longer since reaching 18 years of age.
It is your responsibility to contact the police or relevant authorities to obtain the necessary police certificate
or clearance. You may have to provide information or documentation regarding photographs, fingerprints
or your addresses and periods of residence in that country. You may also be asked to pay a fee for the service.
Philippines
NBI clearances for yourself, your spouse, and each family member aged 18 or older. Only NBI certificates
with dry seal and thumbprint will be accepted.
Note: If the notation on the NBI certificate for you or a member of your family is other than No Record
on File or No Derogatory Record, you must also submit an NBI written explanation.
Japan
You and all your family members aged 18 and over, whether they are accompanying to Canada or not, must
obtain police clearances from your Prefectural Police Headquarters Identification Section covering your
time of residence in Japan. Residents of Tokyo must contact the Police Certificate Sub-section, 1st Foreign
Affairs Section, Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
Enclosed is a letter that will enable you to apply for these certificates. Make as many photocopies of this
letter as you need for yourself and your family members, write in the appropriate names after Dear, and
present them to the appropriate police authorities. These authorities will instruct you as to the
documentation and time they require to issue your certificates. Once they have provided certificates for all
of you, send the original to us as part of your immigration application package.
All applicants
If you or a family member has lived in Canada, you must obtain a police certificate by writing to:
Royal Canadian Mounted Police
NCO-IC Civil Section, Information and Identification Services
P.O. Box 8885
Ottawa, Ontario
Canada K1G 3M8
Provide full names, dates of birth, sex, and places and dates of residence in Canada for each person who
requires such a certificate. You will also be required to submit a set of fingerprints for each person. You can
usually obtain these through your local police station. The RCMP does not currently charge for this service.
The RCMP will send the certificates directly to our office when they are available. You need only to submit
a photocopy of your request letter to the RCMP with your application package as proof that you have
complied with this requirement where it is applicable. If you or your family members have lived in other
locations we shall advise you of addresses or procedures when your application is reviewed.
We will also do our own background checks in all countries in which you and your family members have
lived. These checks will determine if you have any arrests or convictions, or if you are a security risk to
Canada.

Canada as a permanent resident.
The medical exam kit includes a list of doctors to whom you can go for your examination. We will only

review them in order to determine whether there are any medical reasons which would prevent you or your

It is your responsibility to ensure that you contact the doctor promptly as well as pay for the examination
and take any additional exams and tests which may be required by us.
When you go for your medical exam, you will be required to take with you the forms which we send you
and show passports for everybody being examined. You must also tell the examining doctor about all past
and present medical problems and conditions, and provide the doctor with any available documentation such
as physicians reports, treatment or prescriptions.
If your medical results prove satisfactory, they have a validity of one year from the date of exam. If the
processing of your application is delayed longer than this, then you will be required to do the medical exams
again.

Appendix B
Obtaining Police Certificates/Clearances
Certain police authorities have special procedures for obtaining police certificates/clearances. They are the
Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RMCP) and the Royal Hong Kong Police (RHKP). Do not request a
police certificate from Hong Kong or Canada until you are instructed to do so by a visa office. Further
instructions for obtaining a police certificate of no record from these authorities will be sent to you along
with your assessment letter from the Regional Program Centre (Buffalo) and medical forms.
The following list provides some additional information that may assist you in obtaining a police certificate
for certain countries. Bear in mind that this information was accurate at the time of printing; however,
requirements may have changed since that time. If you are unable to obtain an original police certificate
from any country, you must provide an original letter from the police authority verifying that they will not
issue you a certificate.
USA
You must provide:
A copy of our letter requesting that you obtain a Police Record Check (PC-1 letter
enclosed). Affix your own name and address label.
A full set of fingerprints. Fingerprints should be provided on the FBI fingerprint card,
but fingerprints may be obtained from a local police department as long as you have proof
of your identity, or from a private organization engaged in the fingerprinting business. Do
not contact any FBI office for fingerprinting. You may request a blank fingerprint form by
writing to the FBI at this address:
FBI, Criminal Justice Information Services Division (CJIS Division)
Attention: SCU Mod D-2
1000 Custer Hollow Road
Clarksburg, West Virgina 26306 USA
Certified cheque or money order for US $18 made payable to the U.S. Treasury.
Always specify that you require fingerprints for Canadian Immigration purposes.
Processing times may take between three and six weeks. The FBI will send you the results. You should send
the fingerprints with any attached documents from the FBI to the Regional Program Centre. All police
certificates must be originals. Photocopies will not be accepted.
Italy
Citizens, residents and former residents of Italy must obtain two certificates:
B-1
South Africa
You must apply for police certificates at the local police station. Completed forms and fingerprints are then
forwarded to National Police Criminal Records Headquarters in Pretoria, which runs computer and
fingerprint checks. You will need to pay a fee of 30 rand (CAD 15) revenue stamps.
The letter you receive from the National Police Criminal Records Headquarters should be included with
your application for permanent residence.
United Kingdom
You must provide a letter requesting your "Prosecution/Conviction History under Section 21 of the Data
Protection Act, 1984." Do not request a police certificate. The local police in the UK have application
forms (3019A) and details on how to apply and pay the processing fee.
The Subject Access Office will provide you with a letter in response to your request for information about
your prosecution/conviction history. The letter you receive from the Subject Access Office should be
included with your application for permanent residence. Former residents should apply to the regional
police authority for the district where they resided in the UK.

PHOTOS:
As mentioned in regard to the photos that are to be attached
to your Test Admission Ticket (see here), PHOTOCOPIES
are NOT accepted. Prints on photo-quality paper may be
accepted only if all other quality requirements are met.
Make sure you have read ALL the information provided
here before obtaining your picture.
Note also that it is NOT up to the Test Supervisor to
determine if the photograph is acceptable. If the photo does
not meet the required specifications, you may still be
allowed into the test room - but if the LPI Security
Committee later determines that the photo is not acceptable,
your exam may not be marked.
Registration Deadlines:
Registration closes 6 calendar days prior to each test date: e.g.,
for a Saturday sitting, registration will close at midnight the
previous Sunday. REGISTER EARLY as sittings can fill up
two or three weeks before a test date!
The LPI office does not allow a candidate to write the LPI
exam twice in one day. If a candidate is somehow able to
register for two sittings, the second exam WILL NOT BE
MARKED, and the candidate will lose the registration fee.

Immigration Minister
announces decision on
Refugee Appeal
Divisionmore
Through its refugee protection system, Canada offers safe haven to persons
with a well-founded fear of persecution, as well as those at risk of torture or cruel
and unusual treatment or punishment. Canadas refugee protection system
consists of two main components:
1. The Refugee and Humanitarian Resettlement Program, for people
seeking protection from outside Canada; and
2. Asylum in Canada, for persons making refugee protection claims from
within Canada.
Canada has signed the United Nations 1951 Geneva Convention Relating to the
Status of Refugees and its 1967 Protocol. This Convention protects refugees
from being returned to a country where they would face persecution.

PREFACE
We would like to take the opportunity presented to us by the publication of this edition of the Canadian Language Benchmarks to thank,
and express a huge debt of gratitude, to ESL/EFL teachers and program administrators who have struggled valiantly with the Benchmarks over the past five years, to understand them first of all and
then to use them to reshape their programming and curricula. Much
of this work has been unrecognized and considered along with so
many other things, as just a part of the job. Thank you for your
efforts and talents.
We would also like to express our thanks to Grazyna PawlikowskaSmith, who provided advice on how we should proceed with our
document revision work. We took her advice; then took her, to act
on that advice. It took Grazyna the greater part of a year to carry
out extensive consultations across the country; synthesize the input
received; make recommendations to the CCLB; and then, act on those
recommendations supported by the CCLB in the document rewrite. An
individual or individuals are rarely recognized on the cover page of a
standards document such as this. We are more than happy to recognize, in this way, Grazynas contribution to this edition, as well as to
the Working Document edition.
The Board of Directors and staff of the Centre for Canadian Language
Benchmarks (CCLB) are pleased to release this new edition, which
we are calling Canadian Language Benchmarks 2000. The Benchmarks contained herein are assigned an edition number, rather than
defined into posterity, as The Canadian Language Benchmarks. We
are doing so, not because the benchmarks still need improvement,
but because language acquisition is constantly being redefined. Redefinition will necessarily have an impact on the benchmarking of the
language acquired.

INTRODUCTION
the CLB standards can help to articulate ESL needs, practices and
accomplishments. They can also facilitate clear communication
throughout the ESL community, and between it and other community/national organizations and agendas (e.g., instructors, learners,
educational programs, assessors and counsellors, language education funding bodies, labour market associations, licensing bodies,
and employers).
D. What Is a Benchmark?
A Canadian Language Benchmark is a description of a persons
ability to use the English language to accomplish a set of tasks.
Each Benchmark contains a global performance, or a short Benchmark performance profile.
A Benchmark describes four selected competencies in social interaction, instructions, suasion and information.
A Benchmark provides examples of communication tasks, the
accomplishment of which may demonstrate the required standard
of proficiency.
Each Benchmark contains the following parts:
Global performance descriptors, which give a brief account
of a learners general language ability in English as a Second Language as revealed in speaking, listening, reading or writing tasks
at the Benchmark level.
Performance conditions, which are specific conditions that
give us the purpose of communication, setting/place, audience,
topic, time constraints, length of task, assistance allowed, etc.
Competency outcomes and standards, which tell us what a
person can do, examples of communication tasks and text, plus
outcomes that the learner should demonstrate to achieve the
Benchmark.

III.
INTRODUCTION
The most general classification of language use reveals that the competency areas listed are considered to be universally relevant and are
therefore the bases for the Benchmarks:
social interaction: interacting in an interpersonal social situation, in speech or writing
following and giving instructions: in speech or writing
suasion: persuading others, or reacting to suasion to do something, in speech or writing
information: exchanging, presenting and discussing information,
ideas, opinions, feelings; telling stories, describing, reporting,
arguing, etc., in speech or writing
The CLB competencies are directly observable and measurable performance outcomes.
The following table illustrates how similar competencies require increasing complexity of performance across the three stages of proficiency.

contexts. Learners at this stage have a sense of purpose and audience when communicating (including distance, politeness and
formality factors, appropriate register and style, volume/length
of communication), accuracy and coherence of discourse, vocabulary range and precision.
The adequate mastery criterion, against which advanced proficiency
is judged, is not an abstract traditional norm of the educated native
speaker. Native speaker performance samples clearly demonstrate
that there is a range of ability on different tasks among native speakers as well. There is no one native speaker norm; the norm is also
a range. Therefore, the mastery criterion has to be pragmatically
established by a sampling of performance of competent language
users in accomplishing a range of communicatively and cognitively
demanding tasks in a variety of specified contexts.

If you choose not to take an approved language test, you must prove your ability
to speak, listen, read and write Canadas official languages through other written
evidence. You must provide written proof and explanation that clearly shows
you meet the benchmark criteria listed in the Canadian Language Benchmarks
in each of the four skills.
NOTE:
You Must:
a. Indicate what level of language proficiency you are claiming for each skill
(speaking, listening, reading and writing).
b. Submit, with your application for immigration, a written explanation and
supporting documentation as proof of the levels you have indicated.
This material should include:
a written submission explaining your training in English or French;
an explanation of how you commonly use English or French;
official documentation of education in English or French; and
official documentation of work experience in English or French.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/skilled/qual-3-2.html (1 sur 2)2006-03-27 05:43:57
Your submission must satisfy the officer that your language skills meet
the benchmarks for the levels you are claiming.
The officer will award points for your language ability based on what you
send with your application.
You will not know in advance how many points the CIC Officer will give
you for your language skills.

Welcome!
Welcome to the National Occupational Classification 2001 (NOC 2001) Web
site. Since its introduction in 1992, the National Occupational Classification
system continues to be the authoritative resource on occupational information
in Canada. The NOC is used daily by thousands of people to understand the
jobs found throughout Canada's labour market.
The NOC 2001 provides a standardized framework for organizing the world of
work in a manageable, understandable and coherent system and has been
successfully implemented in a number of major applications over the past
decade. It is based on extensive occupational research, analysis and
consultation conducted across the country, reflecting the changes in the
Canadian labour market.
The NOC 2001 Web site contains the classification structure and descriptions
of 520 occupational unit groups and includes over 30,000 occupational titles.
It also features an intuitive search engine to help you find the information you
need. An online training tutorial is available to assist new users and NOC
trainers.

chambre, 2 000 $ pour un appartement de luxe ou une maison. Les logements
situs hors des grandes villes cotent habituellement moins cher. Le prix dachat
des maisons varie considrablement en fonction de la ville ou de lemplacement.
Il se pourrait que vous ayez consacrer de 35 50 p. 100 de votre revenu aux
cots de logement, qui devraient comprendre le cot du chauffage, de
llectricit et des autres commodits.
Prenez le temps de faire une promenade dans le secteur o vous voulez vivre.
Cherchez voir sil y a de bons endroits de stationnement, des lignes dautobus,
des magasins, des coles et une buanderie (lave-linge qui peuvent se trouver
lintrieur des immeubles logements ou dans un local distinct).
Une fois que vous aurez pris une dcision sur la fourchette de prix, la superficie
et lemplacement de votre logement de prdilection, vous devriez tre en

un rendez-vous par tlphone pour visiter une maison ou un appartement
vacant.

Sources of information
Citizenship
telephone numbers and addresses which should be helpful in the next few
days, and during the next few years. It can refer you to the help you need, or
tell you how to find it.
You may have already received general information about your new country.
But what you'll need to know now is more specific. Where can you take
language classes? What about housing? How do you go about finding a job in
Canada? Whom do you call to find out about schools for your children?
The Welcome to Canada guidebook and pamphlets can help you find the
answers to these questions. Canada is a huge country, and every province is
different. While we can't provide you with all the information you need, we
may be able to refer you to the departments, agencies, and organizations
which can help you. Some may be able to help you directly; others may refer
you to another source of information.
Immigrant-serving organizations can help you to settle into Canadian society,
and many of their services are free. Contact an immigrant-serving
organization to find what services are provided. You may find the addresses
and telephone numbers of some of these organizations in the pamphlet called
Finding Help in Your Community, which is in the back pocket of this guide.
Many of these organizations represent a number of different immigrant
services and groups, so they are a great place to start.
Canada's three levels of government -- federal, provincial and municipal -also offer a variety of helpful programs and services for newcomers. Who
offers these programs and services may vary across Canada, since different
provinces have different immigration agreements with the federal government.
You will find commonly used government telephone numbers listed in the
pamphlet called Key Information Sources, which is in the back pocket of this
guide. To find out about free language training in your area, please refer to
the pamphlet called Language Training, also in the back pocket of this guide.
Since the province of Quebec looks after many important aspects of its
immigration program, this guide does not attempt to cover services in this
province. If you are planning to move to Quebec, you may wish to pick up
their guide for newcomers, entitled: Vivre au QUBEC! You can obtain this
booklet from the ministre des Relations avec les citoyens et de l'Immigration
(MRCI). You will find the MRCI telephone numbers for your area listed in the
pamphlets called Key Information Sources and Finding Help in Your
Community, which are in the back pocket of this guide.
Religious institutions, community groups, ethnic associations and newcomer
clubs which can give you a hand are probably located right in your
neighbourhood. Their telephone numbers can be found in the local telephone
book.
Remember, the information and services provided may vary from one place to
another. To get the most out of this guide and the pamphlets that go with it,
we suggest that you:

Getting around
It is useful to have a map of the area where you will be living. It will help you
to get around and find the services you need. Most book stores, gas stations
and convenience stores sell maps at a reasonable price. You may also be
able to get a map of your community free through your local Chamber of
Commerce or municipal office. You can also look at maps in the library, at no
cost. However, you can't take maps out of the library.
businesses. The blue pages list government numbers. The yellow pages list
business numbers -- restaurants, services, stores, and so on. These are listed
by subject or product.
In the front part of the telephone book you will find emergency numbers like
fire departments and ambulance services. The most important number listed
here is an emergency number, 911 in many provinces, which you can call for
help in life-threatening emergencies.
The white pages of the telephone book list home and business numbers in
alphabetical order, from A to Z, using the last name of the person listed. So
look up John Smith under S, for Smith.
The blue pages of the telephone book list telephone numbers for Canadian
government departments, including the federal, provincial, municipal and
regional governments. For frequently used government telephone numbers,
see the pamphlet called Key Information Sources, in the back pocket of this
guide.
The yellow pages are found in a separate telephone book in some of the
larger cities in Canada.
Emergency 911
If you fear for your safety, or the safety of someone in your family, you should
call your local emergency number for help. In many Canadian cities this
number is 911. This connects you immediately to ambulances, fire
departments, the police, and other emergency services. In other communities
not equipped with 911 services, dial 0 and ask the operator for help. Other
medical emergency numbers are listed in the first few white pages of the
telephone book. These may include a poison information number, a distress
or sexual assault help line, and a number to call if you or someone in your
family is being abused.
Voice mail
Many Canadians, and most Canadian businesses and departments, have
some form of answering machine or service to take messages for them when
they are away from their phones. The telephone may ring several times, and
then a recorded message will ask you to leave your name and number and a
short message. You will usually hear a beeping sound followed by a silence.
At this point leave your spoken message and remember to speak clearly and
slowly. You may want to repeat your telephone number twice.
Pay telephones
You may want to use a public telephone when you are out, or before you get
your telephone installed. There are many pay telephone booths set up on city
streets, in shopping malls, in airports -- anywhere there are lots of people.
You pay for these telephone calls as you use the telephone. For local calls,
you put in 25 cents (this charge may vary in some provinces) and make your
call. You should have the right number of coins to put in the slot. If the call is
long distance, you will need to put in more money (coins) as you go along,
and an operator, or the message across the screen on the pay telephone, will
tell you how much. Make sure you have lots of coins with you! Eventually, you
may want to get a calling card from a telephone company. This card allows
you to dial in a special code and make calls on public phones without putting
in any money. These calls are then billed on your regular telephone bill at
home.
Directory assistance
If you need help finding a telephone number, you may call for assistance. Call
411 for local numbers, and 0 for overseas numbers. All telephone numbers
have an area code, which refers to the location of the number. You can look
up these codes in your local telephone book. If the call you wish to make is
outside the local area code, it is probably going to be long distance. Call 1
+AREA CODE+555-1212 if you need help to find the number. Remember,
there is a charge for using this service.
Toll-free numbers
Canada is a very large country, and it can be expensive to make calls from
one city to another. Many businesses and government departments use
telephone numbers that start with 1-800, 1-888, or 1-877. This lets you call
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomer/welcome/wel-02e.html (5 sur 7)2006-03-27 05:44:32
them for free, within a province, or within Canada. These are known as tollfree numbers. Simply dial the 1-800, 1-888, or 1-877 number exactly as listed.
Using computers
A great deal of helpful information is now available through the Internet, a
world-wide resource and information system. You don't need to own a
computer or have Internet access at home to use it. You can often use the
Internet (or "surf the web," as Canadians like to say), free of charge at your
local public library (you must reserve a time slot), community centre, school,
immigrant-serving organization or Human Resources Development Canada
office. Useful information can be found on various "web sites," which are like
codes or addresses on the Internet.
Public libraries
In most communities across Canada, there are public libraries which can be
used free of charge. Libraries are a resource which many newcomers make
use of to read the daily newspapers, use the internet and borrow books.

Immigrant-serving organizations
Canada has hundreds of organizations which help newcomers settle into life
in Canada. Many of them represent a number of different multicultural
agencies and associations, so they can help you in several ways. They may
provide language training, or help you find housing, or look for a job. They
may also provide support for women, children, and families who are dealing
with domestic violence. Some of these organizations can provide these
services in your first language, which may be helpful in the first few months.
The addresses and telephone numbers of many of these organizations are
listed in the pamphlet Finding Help in Your Community, found in the back
pocket of this brochure.
Settlement services
Federal basic settlement services are provided by school boards, community
colleges and immigrant-serving organizations to newcomers throughout
Canada, except in Quebec, Manitoba and British Columbia. These provinces
make their own arrangements for the provision of settlement services.
Host Program
The Host program is a federal government program, designed to:
In return, the host volunteer will have you as a new friend, learn about your
culture and strengthen community life.
Government services
The main telephone numbers for federal, provincial, and municipal or regional
government departments are listed in the blue pages of your local telephone
book. Some are listed by department, or by service. Frequently called
numbers are often listed at the beginning of each section, including a central
information number.
If you need help to find a federal government program or service, call
Information on the Government of Canada at 1-800-622-6232 or if you wish to
use the Internet, the address is: www.canada.gc.ca

Il est possible de louer des appartements au mois, mais pour la plupart des
logements, vous devrez signer un bail d'un an. Il s'agit d'un contrat qui vous
lie, vous et le propritaire. Assurez-vous de comprendre exactement ce que
vous devez payer, et ce qui est compris dans la location. Par exemple, devezvous payer le chauffage, ou ces frais sont-ils inclus dans le loyer? Le Canada
est un pays trs froid en hiver, et les cots de chauffage peuvent tre levs.
Avez-vous le droit d'avoir des animaux? Le rfrigrateur et la cuisinire sontils inclus? Devez-vous payer des taxes municipales? De plus, vous devrez
peut-tre verser un dpt de garantie (quivalant parfois au premier mois de
loyer) pour louer l'appartement que vous avez choisi. Lisez le bail
attentivement avant de le signer.
Vous devriez galement vous procurer une assurance de locataire pour
couvrir le cot de remplacement du contenu de votre appartement.
C'est une excellente ide de demander quelqu'un d'un groupe
communautaire local ou de l'organisation d'aide aux immigrants de vous
fournir des renseignements sur le logement. Cette personne pourra
galement vous expliquer les termes juridiques utiliss dans le bail.
N'oubliez pas : ne signez pas de bail si vous prvoyez dmnager bientt.
Chauffage et lectricit
Que vous soyez locataire ou propritaire, vous devrez vous procurer divers
services de base, comme le chauffage et l'lectricit. Au Canada, certains
foyers sont chauffs au gaz, d'autres au mazout ou l'huile et d'autres encore
l'lectricit. Le plus souvent, il y a un ou deux fournisseurs importants par
rgion, et vous trouverez leur nom dans les pages jaunes de votre annuaire
tlphonique. Regardez sous la rubrique Gaz , Chauffage -entrepreneurs , Mazout et Hydro-lectricit -- Services publics .
Installation du tlphone
Vous voudrez probablement faire brancher rapidement votre tlphone de
faon pouvoir avoir accs rapidement aux personnes et aux services dont
vous avez besoin, sans quitter le confort de votre foyer. Bell Canada exploite
la plupart des services tlphoniques du Canada, mais vous pourrez trouver
le nom de la compagnie de tlphone de votre rgion dans l'annuaire
tlphonique. Le numro du service la clientle est habituellement indiqu
dans les premires pages de l'annuaire. Vous pouvez galement demander

compagnie de tlphone, situes dans les grands centres commerciaux de la
rgion.
Vous pouvez soit louer un tlphone auprs de votre compagnie de
tlphone et payer chaque mois, soit en acheter un. Le cot des appels
locaux est couvert par les frais de service mensuels, qui s'ajoutent au cot de
location du tlphone. Les appels interurbains et l'tranger ne sont pas
couverts par ces frais mensuels, et peuvent tre trs coteux. De
nombreuses compagnies de tlphone offrent des programmes spciaux qui
peuvent rduire le cot des interurbains. Les cartes d'appel, qui peuvent tre

Vous aurez probablement besoin de meubles et d'appareils lectromnagers.
Vous pouvez en acheter des neufs, ce qui peut coter trs cher, ou attendre
que les magasins offrent des soldes et acheter les articles au fur et mesure.
Vous pouvez galement acheter des meubles et des lectromnagers

administre son propre programme. D'une province une autre, il existe des
diffrences sur le plan de l'admissibilit. Dans certaines provinces, vous
devez payer des frais mensuels peu levs pour tre couvert par l'assurance.
Il est important que vous prsentiez une demande de carte d'assurancemaladie le plus tt possible, puisque la plupart des provinces imposent une
priode d'attente avant que vous puissiez profiter des avantages de
l'assurance. C'est la province o vous vivez qui vous fera parvenir votre carte
d'assurance-maladie. Vous pouvez obtenir un formulaire de demande au
cabinet du mdecin, l'hpital, dans les pharmacies ou auprs des
organisations d'aide aux immigrants. Vous pouvez galement vous procurer
les formulaires auprs du ministre provincial de la Sant, dont vous
trouverez le numro dans les pages bleues de votre annuaire tlphonique.
Vous devrez prsenter une preuve d'identit, comme votre certificat de
naissance, votre passeport ou le formulaire de confirmation de la rsidence
permanente (IMM 5292). Vous pouvez prsenter aussi la carte de rsident
permanent.
Les rsidents permanents de la Colombie-Britanique, de l'Ontario, du Qubec
et du Nouveau-Brunswick doivent attendre une priode de trois mois avant
d'tre admissibles. Au cours de cette priode, vous devrez faire une demande
d'assurance prive temporaire. Les compagnies d'assurance prive sont
rpertories dans les pages jaunes de l'annuaire tlphonique,
habituellement sous la rubrique Assurance . Les rgimes privs
d'assurance-maladie couvrent galement certains services qui, autrement, ne
sont pas couverts par le rgime d'assurance-maladie gouvernemental,
comme les soins dentaires ou une chambre d'hpital prive. Certains
employeurs offrent galement une assurance supplmentaire moyennant une
dduction mensuelle sur votre chque de paye. Dans la plupart des
provinces, l'assurance-maladie ne couvre pas le cot des mdicaments
d'ordonnance, des verres correcteurs, des soins dentaires et des services
d'ambulance.
Les revendicateurs du statut de rfugi dans le besoin et les rfugis
demeurant dans des provinces o il y a une priode d'attente de trois mois
pour tre admissible aux soins de sant peuvent recevoir des soins de sant
d'urgence de mme que des soins essentiels. Les cots de ces services sont
couverts par le Programme fdral de sant intrimaire.
N'oubliez pas : chaque membre de votre famille doit possder sa propre carte
d'assurance-maladie. Vous devez toujours apporter votre carte avec vous
lorsque vous allez chez le mdecin ou l'hpital.
Ne permettez jamais personne d'utiliser votre carte d'assurance-maladie.
Vous tes la seule personne pouvoir l'utiliser, et vous pourriez tre priv
des avantages qu'elle vous offre si vous laissiez quelqu'un d'autre l'utiliser.
Vous pourriez galement faire face des accusations criminelles et tre
renvoy du Canada.
Aide d'urgence
Si vous avez besoin d'une aide mdicale d'urgence, rendez-vous rapidement
l'urgence de l'hpital le plus prs de chez vous, ou composez le numro
d'appels d'urgence 9-1-1.
Si vous avez une maladie grave, comme le diabte, l'hypertension ou une
allergie aux mdicaments, informez-vous auprs de votre mdecin ou de
l'hpital au sujet des mdailles et des bracelets Medic Alert. En cas
d'urgence, on y retrouve des renseignements utiles concernant votre tat.
Surveillance mdicale
Au cours de l'examen mdical que vous avez subi avant de devenir un
rsident canadien, on vous a peut-tre dit que vous deviez subir un examen
mdical de suivi une fois que vous seriez au Canada. Il s'agit de la
surveillance mdicale des personnes qui ont une maladie infectieuse non
volutive. Vous devez aviser par tlphone les autorits de la sant publique
de la province ou du territoire o vous vivez dans les 30 jours suivant votre
admission au Canada. Vous trouverez ce numro de tlphone dans les
pages bleues de votre annuaire. Cela est trs important pour votre propre
sant et pour celle de vos compatriotes canadiens.
Grossesse
Au Canada, toutes les mres qui travaillent ont droit un cong de maternit.
Si vous tes enceinte et que vous devez arrter de travailler pour un certain
temps, vous pouvez obtenir un cong pendant une certaine priode. Vous
pourriez galement avoir droit un cong pay ou des prestations de
maternit. Vous pouvez obtenir plus de renseignements ce sujet en

Where to begin
Citizenship
Where to stay
For the first few weeks or months, you will probably want to find some
temporary housing while you look for a more permanent place to live. Hotels
can be quite expensive, so you may want to rent a furnished room or
apartment at first.
To help you in your search, you could check the classified ads in the daily
newspaper in your area. Look under Apartments or Houses for Rent. You
should also talk to the immigrant-serving organizations in your community.
They might be able to help.
Canadian money
Canada's currency is the dollar. There are 100 cents in a dollar. Canadian
coins include the penny (1 cent), nickel (5 cents), dime (10 cents), quarter
(25 cents), a one-dollar coin known as the "loonie," and a two-dollar coin
called a "toonie." The most common paper bills are $5, $10, $20 and $50.
Chances are that when you get to Canada you will have some Canadian
money with you. If you don't, you may wish to exchange a small amount of
your native currency for some Canadian money as soon as you arrive. Most
airports have foreign exchange offices which can do this for you. Try not to
exchange too much, however, since the rate of exchange (how much your
money will buy) may not be as good as at a local bank.
Shopping
In the first few days you may need a few supplies, like food and extra clothing.
Stores in Canada may be set up a little differently than what you have
experienced in other countries.
Most Canadian stores have central cashiers where you pay for your goods,
but they can be hard to find. Grocery stores usually have rows of cashiers at
the entrance to the store, and you bring your goods to the cash, line up and
pay. Department stores, which sell a variety of products, are sometimes set
up this way too. Other stores have cashiers set up in different places around
the store, and you pay at the nearest cashier. You will receive a paper receipt
for whatever you buy, and this is your "proof of payment."
Many stores in Canada have metal shopping carts where you can put your
purchases as you make your way through the store to the cashier.
Many Canadian stores are grouped together in large shopping malls, so you
can do all your shopping in one place. Remember that each store has its own
cash register where you pay for your purchases.
Many places in Canada also have large open-air markets, where you can buy
fresh fruits and vegetables from local farmers. You pay for your purchases as
you go along, from the farmers at each "stand."

Police
The police are there to keep people safe and enforce the law. You can ask
the police for help in all kinds of situations -- if there's been an accident, if
someone has stolen something from you, if you are a victim of assault, if you
see a crime taking place, if someone you know has gone missing, etc.
There are different types of police in Canada, including provincial police
departments and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who enforce federal
laws. Remember, the police are there to help you. Don't hesitate to call 911 or
0 for the operator to contact your local police force in an emergency.
If for some reason you are questioned by the police or arrested, do not resist.
Remember, in Canada, you are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
Communicate as clearly as possible and look directly at the officer. Be ready
to show some kind of identification. If you are taken into custody you have the
right to know why and to have a lawyer and a translator, if needed. Under
Canadian law, it is a serious crime to try to bribe the police by offering money,
gifts or services in exchange for special treatment.
Legal services
If you need a lawyer to protect your interests in court, then you can hire one,
for a fee. You may also be entitled to free legal services, or "legal aid,"
depending on your income. You will find the numbers for provincial legal aid in
the booklet called Key Information Sources in the back pocket of this guide.
An immigrant-serving organization will also be able to tell you where and how
to obtain these services.
Children's rights
Parents in Canada have a legal duty to provide their children with the
necessities of life until they reach age 16. It is illegal in Canada to abuse your
children, either physically, psychologically, or sexually. All forms of child
abuse are serious crimes. Abuse can include spanking children enough to
cause bruises, terrorizing or humiliating them, any kind of sexual contact, and
neglect. Police, doctors, teachers and children's aid workers will take action if
they think children are being harmed. In serious cases, children can be taken
away from their parents. Some cultural practices are not acceptable in
Canada. For instance, all forms of female genital mutilation (FGM) are
prohibited under Canadian law.
Women's rights
In Canada, men and women are equal. They have the same rights, as
outlined in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Discrimination
against women and violence towards women are both against the law.
Women who are abused by their husbands can seek help for themselves and
their children in community shelters. They are also entitled to legal protection
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomer/welcome/wel-14e.html (2 sur 4)2006-03-27 05:44:44
Domestic violence
Violence towards any person -- man, woman or child -- is against the law in
Canada. No one has the right to hit or threaten people or to force them into
sexual activities. The law applies no matter who it is -- wife/husband, partner,
girlfriend/boyfriend, parent, or another relative.
If you or your children are being abused, call the police at 911 or your local
emergency number. They can help you find medical help or drive you to a
safe place, if you wish. Emergency shelters, counselling and free legal advice
are available for adults and children who are being abused. There are also
Rape Crisis and Sexual Assault Support Centres listed in the first few pages
of the telephone book. They are there to help you. In many Canadian cities
there are also 24-hour-a-day telephone help lines, if you just need someone
to talk to. They can also refer you to the help you need.
Many community centres also offer counselling for abusive partners who are
seeking help, for families who wish to stay together, and for children.
Seniors' rights
A senior citizen is someone 65 years of age or older. If you are a senior, you
may be entitled to certain government benefits, such as the Old Age Security
pension (OAS) and the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS). In order to
qualify, you must meet certain residence requirements. You may also be
eligible for old age security benefits from your former country. Some
provinces supplement these plans, and offer extra benefits, such as
prescription drug plans. For information, call 1-800 277-9914 (toll-free). If you
have a hearing or speech impairment and you use a TDD/TTY device, please
call 1-800 255-4786. The French toll-free number is 1-800 277-9915.
Many businesses also offer special rates for senior citizens, or special areas
where seniors can be served more comfortably.
Do you know that violence towards any person -man, woman or child -- is against the law in
Canada?
Do you know that the practice of female genital
mutilation (FGM) is against the law?

Canada Post
anada's mail is handled by the Canada Post Corporation. To send
mail, use a postage stamp. You can buy postage stamps at any
post office. They are also sold in many drug stores, hotel lobbies,
airports, railway stations, bus terminals and some newsstands. The
cost of the stamp is based on the weight and size of the letter or package,
and where your mail is going. When you send something to an address in
Canada, remember to include the six-digit postal code for that address, and
also a return address. This will speed up delivery. If you are sending
something overseas, you must use the special code for that country. You can
find these at a post office.
Mail your letter or small package either at a post office or in the red Canada
Post mail boxes you will find on streets and in shopping malls all across
Canada. Take large parcels to a post office.
Canada Post offers many other services too, such as express delivery, postal
money orders and insurance for very important mail. This insurance can
protect your mail against loss or damage. Express delivery is more expensive
than regular letter mail. Check the rates at the nearest Canada Post office.
There are also private special delivery or courier services. Look these up
under "Courier" in the yellow pages of the telephone book. Mail is distributed
daily from Monday to Friday, except on official holidays. This includes home
delivery, to post office boxes, or to community mail boxes. If you want to send
a telegram, look up "Telegram Services" in the yellow pages for more
information.

Le dpt direct est devenu trs populaire auprs des Canadiennes et des

http://www.cic.gc.ca/francais/vivre/bienvenue/bien-09.html (2 sur 4)2006-03-27 05:44:47
Envoi d'argent
Si vous envoyez de l'argent l'extrieur du Canada, n'envoyez jamais
d'argent comptant. Utilisez un chque certifi ou un mandat. Informez-vous
auprs de votre banque, pour mieux connatre ces options. Vous pouvez
galement acheter un mandat au bureau de poste ou tlgraphier de l'argent
par des services privs d'mission de mandats et de transfert d'argent, dont
vous trouverez les numros dans l'annuaire tlphonique.
Demande de crdit
Obtenir du crdit signifie que vous empruntez de l'argent pour acheter
quelque chose maintenant et que vous le remboursez plus tard, avec des
intrts. Les intrts sont les frais que vous devez payer pour utiliser l'argent.
Les taux d'intrt peuvent tre trs levs. C'est pourquoi vous devez tre
trs prudent lorsque vous faites appel au crdit.
Le crdit prend de nombreuses formes -- cartes de crdit, marges de crdit,
hypothques ou prts. Vous pouvez faire une demande de carte de crdit
auprs d'une banque ou d'une compagnie de fiducie. Ces cartes vous
permettent d'acheter des articles crdit et de recevoir la facture au cours du
mois suivant. Si vous remboursez le montant total la date prvue, vous
n'aurez pas payer de l'intrt.
Si vous empruntez de l'argent, assurez-vous de savoir exactement quel
moment vous devez le rembourser, et combien cela vous cotera. Vous
pouvez rembourser par mensualits si vous empruntez de l'argent selon un
rgime d'achat temprament.
De nombreux grands magasins annoncent maintenant des ventes spciales
qui vous permettent d'acheter quelque chose maintenant et de le payer dans
un an ou dans six mois, sans intrt. Assurez-vous de comprendre
exactement ce que vous devez payer, et quel moment, avant de signer quoi
que ce soit. Si vous ne comprenez pas quelque chose, demandez une
personne en qui vous avez confiance de vous l'expliquer clairement.
Tlmarketing
Vous recevrez peut-tre des appels de personnes qui tenteront de vous
vendre quelque chose. Certaines sont honntes, d'autres ne le sont pas. La
meilleure faon de vous protger est de ne jamais fournir de renseignements
personnels ou financiers au tlphone. Si l'appel vous rend mal l'aise,
raccrochez.

Finding a job
Citizenship
t first you may find it difficult to get work that matches your
skills. It may also be difficult to find a job that pays as much as
you want until you get Canadian experience. Try not to be
discouraged. When the right job does come along, you will
have the benefit of that previous experience.
When you apply for a job in Canada, the employer will want some information
about you. Bring a list of your education and work experience (a rsum).
Also bring letters of reference from your former employers, your professional
degrees and trade certificates. You may be asked to provide English or
French copies of these documents.
Remember that certain trades or professions are regulated, which means that
you must be licensed, registered or certified to practise them. In other words,
you must meet certain standards which are set by the organization
responsible for your profession in the province where you plan to work. The
standards vary from province to province. So even though you may be
qualified in another country, your qualifications must meet Canadian
standards for you to be licensed to practise.
Getting paid
Employers have the choice to pay their workers every week, every two weeks
or once a month. You can be paid in cash, by cheque or by direct deposit to
your bank account. Your pay stub (the piece of paper attached to your
paycheque) shows how much you earned. It also lists any money taken off
(deductions) for federal and provincial taxes, pension plans, employment
insurance, and any other items.
Daycare
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomer/welcome/wel-10e.html (4 sur 6)2006-03-27 05:44:50
When you do find work, you must remember that it is illegal in Canada to
leave children under the age of 12 at home by themselves. You may need to
pay someone to look after your children while you work. There are several
options you can look into, such as licensed day care centres, home-based
day care, nursery schools, and "drop-in" day care centres. You can also hire
someone to come into your home and look after your children. Look in the
yellow pages under "Day Nurseries" or "Day Care." Also check the classified
advertisements section of the newspaper under "Employment Wanted" to find
a caregiver in your area. Government-subsidized daycare exists for lowincome families.
Volunteering
You might wish to help out in an agency or community organization as a
volunteer. This means that you volunteer your time but you do not get paid.
However, volunteering can help you develop Canadian job experience, get a
practical knowledge of the Canadian workplace, practise your English or
French and make new friends, as well as help others. You can find volunteer
centres in the yellow pages of your telephone book, or contact your local
community agency.
An example of volunteering is the Host Program. The Canadian government
funds the Host Program to help newcomers adapt, settle and integrate into
Canadian life. Host volunteers are Canadians who offer their time to be with
newcomers and introduce them to the Canadian way of life.
For more information on the Host Program, contact one of the local immigrantserving organizations listed in the pamphlet called Finding Help in Your

Citizenship
Were you born in Canada? Is one of your parents Canadian? Were you landed
in Canada before 1947 (e.g., as a war bride)? Do you need proof of your
Canadian citizenship?
If you were born in Canada, you are probably a citizen. You may also be a
Canadian citizen if you were born outside Canada to a Canadian parent. If you
were landed in Canada before 1947, you may have automatically become a
Canadian citizen (e.g., war brides automatically became Canadians on
January 1, 1947). Find out more about Canadian citizenship.

La double citoyennet
Quest-ce que la double citoyennet?
Tout tat indpendant dtermine lui-mme qui est citoyen et qui ne lest pas.
Vous possdez une double citoyennet ou plusieurs citoyennets lorsque plus
dun pays vous reconnat comme son ressortissant.
Contrairement la lgislation en vigueur au Canada avant 1977, la prsente Loi
sur la citoyennet permet un citoyen canadien dacqurir une nationalit
trangre sans perte automatique de la citoyennet canadienne. Depuis le
15 fvrier 1977, un citoyen canadien qui obtient une autre nationalit peut
conserver sa citoyennet canadienne, moins quil ne dcide, de son propre
chef, de prsenter une demande pour y renoncer et que celle-ci soit approuve
par un juge de la citoyennet. La loi actuelle permet ainsi la possession de plus
dune citoyennet et allgeance la fois, pour une dure indfinie.
Par consquent, il se peut que vous ayez les droits et les obligations que
comporte le statut de citoyen dans chacun de ces pays. Lorsque vous vous
trouvez dans un pays qui vous reconnat comme lun de ses citoyens, les lois de
cet tat ont priorit sur celles de tout autre pays dont vous tes citoyen. Les
traits internationaux peuvent toutefois tablir des exceptions cette rgle.
Une personne peut dtenir plusieurs citoyennets la fois. Prenons le cas dune
personne qui est ne dans un pays autre que le Canada, qui fait une demande
de citoyennet et est naturalise Canadienne et devient ensuite citoyenne dun
tiers pays. Cette personne peut tre considre comme tant citoyenne des
trois pays. Toutefois, les cas de double citoyennet sont plus frquents. Mme
si ce dpliant traite surtout de la double citoyennet, les observations quil
contient sappliquent galement aux personnes possdant plus de deux
citoyennets. De nos jours, les termes double citoyennet et double
nationalit sont utiliss indiffremment.
lapprouver officiellement.
Si vous possdez ou comptez adopter la citoyennet dun autre pays et si vous
vivez ltranger, vous pouvez, pour renoncer la citoyennet canadienne,
prsenter une demande auprs dune ambassade, dun haut-commissariat ou
dun consulat du Canada ltranger. Cependant, une fois que vous navez plus
la citoyennet canadienne, vous ne pouvez plus voyager avec un passeport
canadien ni bnficier de la protection du Canada lextrieur du pays. En
outre, vous ne pouvez plus revenir au Canada titre de rsident permanent
sans dabord passer par les services dimmigration.
Et surtout, vitez de vous rendre dans un pays o votre statut de citoyen de ce
pays risque de vous causer de graves problmes.

The WES evaluation converts educational credentials from any country in the world into
their Canadian equivalents. It describes each certificate, diploma or degree that you
have earned and states its academic equivalency in Canada.
WES evaluations are widely accepted and often specifically requested by academic
institutions, regulatory bodies, employers and government agencies throughout Canada.
(WES also administers a separate credential evaluation service in the United States; for
more information, please visit WES USA).
WES is recognized, and funded in part, by the Government of Ontario.
