What preparations do you need to make before immigrating to Canada?

I. Selection of resettlement areas and projects

Immigrants should be the target. The first step to determine the goal is to know the basic situation. There are two aspects to understand here, otherwise it is very easy to make a wrong choice on impulse.

The first is to understand the situation in various provinces in Canada.

Canada has Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec and Saskatchewan 10, plus Nunavut, Northwest Territories and Yukon, it becomes *** 13. The whole country has changed greatly from south to north and from east to west. Even if there are differences in clothes and expenses, even the language is different. Just like the northeast and Guangdong have the word "East", but there is a big difference!

The second is to understand different immigration projects.

Canada is an immigrant country, and all those who are interested in immigrating to Canada are welcome. It is precisely because of this attitude and policy towards immigrants that Canada's immigration projects are really varied and dazzling. Then how to choose? Of course, we should choose the right immigration project according to our own conditions! Then how can we know which project is suitable for us? Of course, we must look at all immigration projects and understand the requirements of different immigration projects! You can't choose if you don't know. It is very necessary to understand different immigration policies.

Second, see what kind of immigrants you are suitable for.

Let's learn about the immigration program in Canada now and see which one is right for you.

The first kind is simple and rude, which is what we often say: "Anything that can be solved with money is not a matter." Of course, immigrants can also spend money to solve it. There are two types of business investment immigrants in Canada: federal nomination and provincial nomination. Canada's federal investment immigrants have been stagnant since the case was closed, and then all other provinces except Quebec nominate business immigrants as entrepreneurial immigrants, which means that applicants need to invest in the nominated provinces and run a local enterprise after success.

The conditions of these investment immigrants are similar, but if you choose the popular Ontario and BC provinces, the requirements are more, and if you choose other provinces such as Saskatchewan, the requirements are not so high. Among them, the requirements for nominating immigrants in Prince Edward Island Province are relatively low: the net assets are not less than 600,000 Canadian dollars, and the source of assets can be reasonably explained; Minimum high school education; 2 1 to 59 years old; As long as the comprehensive score exceeds 50 points. ...

Of course, you can also choose self-employed immigrants, and it is also good to go to Canada to buy a farm and be a farmer!

Then there is the skill type, that is to say, having excellent work ability or talent that others don't have.

The first is skilled migration, which is aimed at those skilled workers. Skilled immigrants are also divided into federal skilled immigrants and provincial nominated skilled immigrants. The nomination of skilled immigrants in the province generally requires employer's guarantee, but the federal government does not. As long as the skills, language and work experience meet the standards, you can apply through EE (Federal Skilled Migration Fast Track) and immigrate after receiving the invitation. The application adopts a scoring system, which comprehensively scores the applicant's age, education level, professional category, work experience and language ability, so as to determine whether the applicant is qualified as a skilled immigrant in Canada.

The second type is self-employed immigrants, which are aimed at stylistic people. Self-employed immigrants, that is to say, being their own bosses, are very similar to freelancers. However, to apply for self-employed immigrants, you must first have a good talent and be a worker involved in the fields of culture, art or sports, such as writers, painters, athletes, journalists, dancers and so on. The requirements of this kind of self-employed immigrants are very simple, only three: first, they have more than two years of relevant experience in the fields of culture and sports in the past five years; Second, I am interested in starting my own business in Canada; Third, they can contribute to the Canadian economy in related fields.

Then there are other types of immigrants. For example, family reunion immigrants mainly refer to immigrants whose family members and relatives go to Canada to reunite with their relatives who have become permanent residents or citizens of Canada and live in Canada. You can apply for permanent residence for your spouse and children, sponsor parents and grandparents to emigrate, and sponsor other family members to emigrate. Another example is refugee immigration. Applying for a refugee is completely different from applying for a refugee in Canada. The refugee policy can actually be understood as a legal immigration route, but the Canadian government needs to judge whether the applicant has a legitimate reason to be sheltered by the Canadian government. Both have limitations.

Finally, add a circuitous way forward, that is, study in Canada first, and then immigrate further. Studying abroad is a relatively fast and safe way of immigration, and the conditions for Canadian students to apply for a work visa are also very relaxed. As long as they study hard, pay attention to the dynamics and news of work visas and actively prepare materials during their study abroad, it is still easy to get a work visa.

Third, don't forget your children.

Nowadays, more and more parents plan their children's study abroad together with immigration. There are two problems to pay attention to.

First, pay attention to the specific time. Generally speaking, the schedule is as follows: in the early stage of preparation, determine the goal of studying abroad, rationally plan all stages of application for studying abroad, and deposit the funds for studying abroad in the bank; Starting from September, determine the school to apply for, prepare all the materials needed for school application, and apply for the school; 1 1 By March of the following year, get pre-admission from the school and pay tuition fees in exchange for formal admission; From April to June of the following year, prepare visa materials and strengthen English learning; From June to August of the following year, physical examination and visa submission; In September of the following year, I successfully got a visa, booked a plane ticket, and contacted accommodation and other pre-departure preparations.

The second is to adjust the child's psychological state. How to help children better adapt to Canadian education? First, we should teach children to think independently. The advantage of Canadian education over China lies in paying attention to students' critical thinking, independent thinking, creativity, ability to find and solve problems. The second is to cultivate children's independence. Parents should learn to let go slowly and let their children learn to explore on their own in a safe situation. The third is to encourage children to speak more foreign languages and integrate into the school environment. A study in Canada shows that foreign language fluency affects the future salary level and promotion potential of immigrants, and foreign language fluency can also make children make many friends.
