- Implementing the Canada Temporary Program for Canadian College Graduates (TR to PR Pathway) As announced by the Immigration Office on Thursday, May 6, we have implemented six TR to PR Pathway temporary immigration programs. Among the special immigration programs, especially those through Canadian school graduates' streams received the most attention. The program received 40,000 applicants on a first-come, first-served basis, with 40,000 applicants flocking in 25 hours since the program began. Many applicants were disappointed that the presentation of the program's detailed list of documents was announced on the afternoon of May 5 and the program support did not have the opportunity to submit the application on time when it began the next day, May 6. In this process, there were some cases where I could not get a receipt due to the failure to prepare my English grades on time, the issuance of a certificate or report card, or the system overload on the day of the application on May 6. What's important here is that this is why we missed the opportunity to proceed with permanent residency, but the Immigration Department expects to give more permanent residency opportunities for international students in the future. This permanent residency method said that if you submitted documents first but failed to submit proper documents or if the application was not completed properly, it could be returned next time, and many applicants are expected to return as they applied urgently. Due to these results, the immigration office is unlikely to reach its target of attracting permanent residents through 40,000 applications, which is expected to open again next time. Similarly, parental invitation immigration is carried out on a first-come, first-served basis, like this temporary permanent residency method, but many applicants do not submit or return applications, giving new applicants an opportunity each time. Another example was the Canadian Diploma Stream condition, but at the same time there were cases where two permanent residency methods were applied to essential job streams. Then the examiner can check and adjust the number of applications. The Immigration Service has not announced this yet, but we are fully looking forward to it as we have always given more permanent residency opportunities to Canadian students and have promised to continue providing them until 2023. The biggest variable here is, of course, the spread of COVID-19. It is a fait accompli that the number of applicants preparing for permanent residency has decreased rapidly due to COVID-19 Pandemic, which started last year. As a result, applicants who have already entered Canada and were preparing for permanent residency have lowered the threshold for permanent residency in Canada and are still decreasing. If restrictions on entry to Canada continue or become more difficult due to COVID-19 Pandemic, applicants who are already preparing for permanent residency in Canada will have more opportunities to obtain permanent residency. Even if you didn't prepare the documents in advance and didn't apply for permanent residency, you are expected to have more opportunities in the future, so you should prepare your language scores and other documents in advance and be ready to apply for the new permanent residency program. There will be many opportunities at least by 2023, so please don't miss this hope and opportunity. 2021-05-12 Read more >
- After TR to PR Pathway immigration Program QnA Since the announcement of the unconventional permanent residency program on April 14, many permanent residency applicants have been preparing for related programs. According to the announcement, there are three programs, one for students graduating from school in Canada, one for those who have worked in essential jobs for more than a year, or for those who are fluent in French, and the qualifications have been briefly announced. However, I understand that there are many questions and questions about preparing documents for May 6th in advance because the details of the presentation on April 14th did not include specific conditions, application methods, necessary documents, and costs. So today, we will guide you through the recent questions and answers related to the newly announced program based on the updated content so far to help you prepare for permanent residency. How can I apply for an application? The immigration office announced that the application will be filed online. It's on a first-come, first-served basis, so you have to prepare and apply right away when it opens on May 6th. You can first check the applicant's qualification conditions and find the appropriate application program. After that, you can register all documents and government recognition zones together through the platform that will open from May 6th. It has been confirmed that we will need a required English report card and a certificate that we are currently working. What documents should I submit? This permanent residency program does not count as a score, but if you meet the conditions, all documents should be submitted at once and there should be no mistakes. Of course, additional documents may be requested after receiving the document for the first time, so you can refer to this separately. What documents should be submitted have not been announced in detail at this point, but it will be similar to those required for other permanent residency applications. This generally requires a passport, a copy of the current perm, an English report card, and a certificate of employment, and English grades are only valid for two years, so if your English grades expire at the time of filing, you should prepare a new one. How long is the document process? There is no official period announced by the immigration office yet, but we expect it to take about 6 months. Can I register at the same time if I am eligible to apply for two programs at once? Yes, if the conditions are met, more than two programs can be accepted at once, but the government should also pay separately. What is the government's land? It's not fixed yet, but it's likely to be another permanent residency fee of $1,325 and Biometric fee of $85. Can I apply before graduation? Yes, if you apply for a required job program, you can apply even if you don't graduate from school. However, if you proceed with the Canadian school graduate program, you must graduate first before proceeding. Do I have to be working when I register? Yes, the important part of this program is that you must be working when you submit the document. However, according to the report so far, you don't have to work full-time, and whatever you do, it meets the requirements. Therefore, if you work part-time, the conditions are met. As above, we have already said that we will implement this program on May 6th, but the details are before the presentation. However, most of the required documents will be similar to other permanent residency programs, so you can prepare them in advance by referring to other permanent residency programs. Therefore, if we are eligible to apply for this program, we will continue to check the immigration website, identify necessary documents in advance, and prepare them on a first-come, first-served basis on May 6th. 2021-05-05 Read more >
- How to get the necessary academic certification for permanent residency in Canada. Anyone preparing for permanent residency in Canada may have heard of the ECA (Educational Credential Assessment). Academic certification is a necessary course to get additional grades for permanent residency, and the reason why this certification is needed is to check which courses are the same in Canada if you graduate from a school outside of Canada. For example, when you graduate from 3 years in Korea, it is not clear whether you can get 2 years or 4 years in Canada, so you should check what kind of education you are recognized in Canada after certifying your academic background. In other words, without academic certification, it is difficult to proceed with permanent residency due to accurate academic scores. And if you graduate from school in Canada, you don't have to proceed with academic certification separately because you have already been recognized as a Canadian educational background. If you run Express Entry, a federal immigration program, if you don't have an academic certificate, you won't get any academic scores even if you graduate from college or graduate school because you don't have any academic background. Therefore, you need to get an academic certification for the highest academic background when you are conducting Express Entry. For example, if you have acquired all your bachelor's, master's, and doctorate programs, you only need to get a doctorate certificate. However, if you have an additional bachelor's degree, or if you have an additional one or two years of education, or if you have two bachelor's degrees, you can get more academic scores than if you have one bachelor's degree. If you proceed with BCPNP, you can get an academic grade if you have an English diploma even if you don't get an academic certificate. However, if you get an academic certification, you can get additional points for proceeding with the academic certification, so I recommend you get an academic certification and get this extra point. There are five institutions that provide educational certification: World Education Services (WES), Comprehensive Education Service (CES), International Credential Assessment Service (ICASC), International Qualifications Assessment Service (IQAS), and International Credential Evaluation Service (ICES). Normally, it takes about 1 to 3 months to get an academic certificate, so you have to prepare it in advance, and once you get it, it will be valid for 5 years from the date you receive it, so you can proceed with your permanent residency at any time. For these reasons, if you always prepare for permanent residency in advance, it will be helpful to proceed with permanent residency, so if you need an academic certification, I recommend you to prepare it in advance and prepare to proceed with it at any time. 2021-04-28 Read more >
- Canada's new immigration program announced for college graduates, healthcare and essential workers. On April 14, the Canadian Immigration Service announced an extraordinary new immigration program. Three programs have been announced for international students living in Canada, essential occupations or medical workers, and fluent French speakers. These three programs will be implemented in earnest on May 6 and will end on November 5, with a total of 90,000 international students, essential occupations or medical workers and unlimited French proficiency. In other words, it said it would be implemented until November 5, but if the maximum capacity limit of 90,000 people is reached before November 5, it will be closed before November 5, so it can be said that it is a permanent residence on a first-come, first-served basis. In these permanent residency programs, the principal applicant must reside in Canada, but family members can obtain permanent residency together even if they are abroad. Then first, you need to learn more about the programs and prepare them, but if you look at the international student program, anyone who meets the following conditions can apply. A total of 40,000 students will be selected for the international student program, and you should have graduated from a Canadian public school or a school that can support PGWP after January 2017. Or you can get recognition when you graduate from certain schools in Quebec. Also, you must live and work in Canada at the time of application, but self-employment is not included. Finally, you must submit your CLB5 or higher language grades within 2 years of the date of application for permanent residency. Next, a total of 20,000 people will be selected for the medical-related worker program, and 40 occupations, including nurses, doctors, pharmacists and social workers, will meet the requirements if they have worked full-time for more than a year within the last three years. In addition, you must be currently working in Canada and your language score must be submitted CLB 4 or higher within 2 years of the date of application for permanent residency. A total of 30,000 people will be selected as essential occupational programs, and similar to healthcare workers, more than a year of full-time experience and a language score of CLB of 4 or more are required within the last 3 years. A total of 95 jobs are available, including retail salespeople, farm workers, construction, caregiver, and kesher. In these permanent residency programs, the principal applicant must reside in Canada, but family members can obtain permanent residency together even if they are abroad. As the above announced threshold for permanent residency is somewhat low, so we expect a large number of applicants. In particular, it seems that the international student program may be closed on the day of its opening, so if you meet the above conditions and plan to apply this time, you should carefully understand how to proceed with this permanent residency in advance. Unfortunately, many of the jobs adopted this time are excluded from the restaurant industry and childcare teachers, so it is difficult to proceed with essential job programs, but if the international student program meets the conditions, it can proceed with the international student program method. Even if this doesn't work, the Canadian Immigration Service is trying to accommodate more immigrants, as indicated by the extensive selection of Express Entry – CEC on February 13 and the new immigration methods starting May 6. In other words, other immigration programs may be introduced soon and applicants who did not apply this time may apply, so I recommend you to make English grades in advance and pay attention to future permanent residency programs. The Canadian government is trying to revive Canada's economy, which has been depressed by COVID-19, by increasing the number of immigrants, so it expects to continue to increase. 2021-04-21 Read more >
