Provincial Programs  

Most provinces in Canada offer programs for persons in which successful applicants can be nominated by the province and subsequently be approved by the federal government. Navigating through the different programs to find the right one for applicants can be difficult at the best of times; it requires a sound knowledge of programs across Canada. Fortunately, Altec Global maintains a vast network with Lawyers and Consultants in various provinces who can assist Altec Global clients achieve their goals.

Immigration Programs  

Canada offers a wide range of programs by which persons can immigrate to Canada either as temporary residents with permission to work or study or become Permanent Residents. Navigation through this sea of programs can be difficult for a potential applicant and can lead to disappointment and failure for a person not familiar with all the requirements.  It is advisable for potential immigrants to discuss all possibilities before deciding to proceed.  

The most popular program available is the Federal Express Entry program, which requires an applicant to submit a profile to the Canada federal government website and monitor the regular pass mark for successful applicants. Persons who meet the age, education, language and work experience criteria and have their application selected based on a Points based system will be invited to apply for Permanent Residence. 

Similarly, provincial governments can draw on profiles submitted by potential applicants and select persons for entry based on criteria tailored to the respective province. As provincial governments give preference to applicants who have a connection to their province, either through relatives living there or having studied in the province, it makes sense to show a strong connection to the province if you expect to be selected.  

Quebec operates its own selection system which requires that anyone wishing to immigrate to that province obtain a CSQ or Certificate de Selection de Quebec before any Canadian Permanent Resident Visa can be issued.  Altec is fortunate to work with a leading law firm in Montreal to assist our clients destined to Quebec.  

Immigrating to Canada can be a complex procedure with many steps along the way to success. Unless you have an intimate knowledge of all the procedures it is best to engage the services of a seasoned professional advisor.
