My wife and I are Canadian immigrants and gave birth in China. How do we go to Canada now?

Some kinds of immigration applications and audits must be conducted at embassies or consulates outside Canada. This is true for skilled immigrants, investment immigrants, entrepreneur immigrants and self-employed immigrants. Applicants in the above categories must submit application materials to embassies or consulates outside Canada, even if they are already in Canada. Not every embassy or consulate accepts immigration audit, so the materials must be submitted to the embassy or consulate with immigration business. China applicants generally submit materials to the following embassies and consulates: Beijing, Hongkong, Manila, Singapore, Buffalo, London, etc.

After the application materials are submitted to the embassy or consulate together with the application fee, you should receive a receipt and a notice indicating the application file number (file number). If the materials are complete, after a period of time, you should receive a second letter, which is a preliminary opinion on the material review. After passing the preliminary examination, most people enter the interview stage or take the English test as required. Some people were rejected at the initial stage.

The next stage is waiting for the interview. But not all applicants have to attend the interview. If the immigration officer can decide to pass the exam only on the basis of reviewing the materials, then the applicant can be exempted from the interview.

Once you pass the interview or exemption, the last hurdle is the physical examination. If everything else has been exhausted, generally speaking, you can get a visa after two or three months of physical examination.

The longest of the above stages is the stage of waiting for an interview after submitting materials. This is commonly referred to as "interview schedule". As the number of applications received by embassies and consulates is different, the number of immigration officers is different, the working mechanism and efficiency are different, and the whole application process and waiting time are also very different. The shortest application time for skilled immigrants is about 3 months. At the Canadian Embassy in Beijing, some applicants waited for three years. The extremely long application has exceeded five years.

The application for family reunion (guarantee) should begin with the guarantor who has entered Canada and has the status of citizen or immigrant. The guarantor should go to the immigration center of the municipal government to get the application form. Fill in the form and submit all the necessary materials, and submit it to the Canadian Audit Office at the designated place. After the materials are approved, the audit office will send the application form to the guarantor or give the relevant materials to an embassy or consulate, and then the embassy or consulate will issue the application form to the applicant. The application form contains a list of required materials, which shall be filled in by the applicant or guarantor as required and submitted to the embassy or consulate. 1999, the time for spouses and children to apply for review is generally less than 6 months, and the time for sponsoring parents to review is slightly longer.

If some investment immigrants want to apply for Quebec, they must pass the exam in Quebec first. Quebec investment immigrants generally need more than half a year to complete the provincial government's audit, including interviews. Finally, it must pass the final approval of the federal government. From application to getting a visa, it is generally within 1 year, and some are a little longer.

Important issues that should be paid attention to during the application process and before employment.

No matter what kind of immigrants, from submitting applications to entering the country, if there is any change in their marriage, changes in family members should be reported to the audit department in time. For example, in the application process, if the applicant is married or has a new child, the relevant documents of the spouse or the birth certificate of the child should be submitted. This point should not be ignored in general. However, some single applicants get married after getting a visa, or married people give birth to children after getting a visa, and then enter the country without reporting to the immigration officer for approval. This is absolutely not allowed. Because the changes in population and marital status are not in line with the situation at the time of visa, even if the later personnel do not apply for going to Canada, they should report to the immigration officer and wait for instructions. Otherwise, it may cause obstacles when entering the country. Even if you have entered the country, you may even be deported in the future! The specific way to solve the problem is to temporarily refuse to enter the country, pay the application procedures and application fees (depending on whether the family members go to Canada or not), and submit a replacement visa for approval. Only after the relevant personnel have completed the medical examination and obtained the approval or visa from all family members can they enter the country. If you are not married but want to get married, another alternative is that the main applicant who obtained the visa first enters China and then goes back to get married. When he comes back, he will have a bachelor certificate or go to the Canadian Embassy in China. ) In the future, his spouse will guarantee to go to Canada by means of family reunion. Another option is to help your spouse go to Canada by sponsoring your fiance/wife after your spouse enters the country.

According to the explanation of the Immigration Bureau, an educator who graduated from a university and completed 16 years can only get 20 points. And graduated from junior college (three-year system) and completed 15 years of education, you can get 22 points. Only applicants with double bachelor's degrees can get the same score as college graduates, 22 points.

Article 78 of the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Law stipulates that:

Education (25 points)

……

(2) The education of skilled workers can get up to 25 points, as follows:

……

(d) 20 points

……

(ii) Two-year undergraduate degree, with at least 14 years of full-time study or full-time equivalent;

(e) 22 points

(1) A three-year certificate of post-secondary education, excluding a university certificate, and a full-time or full-time equivalent degree of at least 15 years, or

(ii) University education certificates with two or more bachelor's degrees, and at least 15 years of full-time or full-time equivalent study;

The Immigration Department explained this provision in detail with a concrete example:

Example: 2. If the applicant has a four-year bachelor's degree and 16 years of education, the official will award 20 points, because a single two-,three-or four-year bachelor's degree certificate plus at least 14 years of full-time study is equivalent to 20 points;

This explanation of the Immigration Department has made a very clear conclusion about the education scores that applicants who graduated from universities in Asian countries and even North America can get. According to this explanation, you can only get 20 points after graduating from college.

According to this explanation, the immigration officer will face a difficult problem: should an applicant who has been promoted to junior college give him 22 points (junior college) or 20 points (university)?

The opinion of immigration experts is that the interpretation of Article 78 of the Implementing Rules will be subject to the judgment of the federal court. Because the detailed rules only involve two situations: "one two-year undergraduate degree" and "two or more undergraduate degrees". Then, how many points should you get for "more than three years of college education"? This is not clearly answered in the implementation rules. The above explanation of the Immigration Bureau has no legal basis.

However, before the federal court makes a final conclusion on this issue, the Immigration Department can only give 20 points to applicants who have graduated from universities.

Skilled immigrants from Chinese mainland often make the same mistakes, and many good applications are rejected by the Canadian Immigration Department because of these avoidable mistakes. Canadian skilled immigrants must pay attention to the following issues:

1. Canadian immigration law requires applicants to prove their English proficiency in two ways.

One is to pass the IELTS test (there is another test), and the other is to prove my listening, speaking, reading and writing ability by presenting evidence. If you want to pass the IELTS test, you must pass the IELTS job training test, not the IELTS entrance exam. Immigration Canada adopts the IELTS employment training exam instead of the IELTS entrance exam (academic). If you don't have IELTS scores, you must prove your English ability (listening, speaking, reading and writing) item by item.

Some people think that as long as the total score of IELTS can reach 7, English can get full marks, which is a wrong concept. Full marks in English 16 must be 7 points in listening, speaking, reading and writing. It's really funny. Many people with poor English are instructing applicants to take the English test. Therefore, Immigration Canada now requires all consultants to pass the most basic English and law exams.

2. Work experience.

Some applicants often make mistakes in this item. The specific mistakes are: first, the title of domestic work is different from that of Canada; Second, the job titles in China and Canada are the same, but the job contents and responsibilities are different. If you can't grasp this correctly, your application is not optimistic.

The solution is to look at the job title of the Canadian Human Resources Department. The title of your work must be the title used in the encyclopedia. Secondly, your work content must be combined with your actual situation and written according to Canadian standards.

Your work experience is usually proved by an employment letter. We must talk about the writing skills and problems of employer's letter.

An employer's letter that meets the requirements of Canadian Customs and Immigration Department must usually include the following contents:

(1) company profile;

(2) the first few years of your work;

(3) job title and professional title;

(4) Work contents and responsibilities;

(5) Nature of work, salary and other benefits;

(6) The author's position and his understanding of you.

The employer's letter must be written on the company's stationery, and the writer must leave a business card with address and telephone number.

First, is it immigration? Still studying abroad

1) Expenditure: the handling fee for studying abroad is about 30,000 yuan, and the annual tuition and living expenses are about 65,438 yuan +0.5 million yuan/year. Children can enjoy 12 years of free education after emigration, and the annual government subsidy is about 10000 yuan, and the university tuition is low (about 1/3- 1/5 of the tuition for international students), which can basically offset the cost of investment immigration. Moreover, immigrant children can apply for interest-free loans and work outside the school legally, not to mention the medical care and various benefits that the whole family can enjoy after immigration.

2) The quality of the school your child attends: The best universities in Canada reserve most of the admission places for their own citizens and permanent residents, and your child can apply for a first-class university in Canada after immigrating; The range of schools that can be selected through intermediaries is very narrow.

3) Visa rate: Choose a professional legal institution with good reputation, and the visa rate for handling immigrants after evaluation is very high; The visa rate for studying abroad is decreasing year by year, with an average of less than 50%.

For a long time, attracting foreign talents and investment has been a national policy pursued by the Canadian government, so its immigration policy has been more relaxed than other immigrant countries such as Australia and New Zealand. And even if you study in Canada and want to stay and develop, you still need to apply for immigration from scratch. Therefore, more and more people choose to apply for investment immigration in one step to choose a more comfortable living environment for themselves and their families and create a better future for their children.

2. What are the new trends of Canadian immigrants?

Quebec investment immigration will be further accelerated.

Quebec investment immigrants were founded in 1986, and the policy has been stable for nearly 20 years. It is a classic project among all immigration projects, and its cost is also the smallest among all Canadian investment immigration projects. The investment method is 400,000 Canadian dollars, which will be repaid in full after five years, with little interest loss and financing options. Recently, many investment immigrant customers of Jiahui Company can attend the interview in 3-5 months and get the physical examination form in 8- 10 months, which is obviously faster than before. At the same time, because the ratio of the number of immigrants to the number of applicants has been greatly improved compared with previous years, the application approval rate will also increase accordingly. To sum up, now is the ideal time to apply for investment immigration in Quebec, Canada.

Investment in Newfoundland nominated projects will be reduced.

Compared with other provinces' nomination projects, New Zealand's nomination projects have been well received by applicants for their low investment and high speed. The fastest case last year took only 10 months to get a visa.

It is reported that although the asset requirement of the newly nominated project in New Zealand will be raised to 750,000 Canadian dollars in September 2004, its investment will be as low as 75,000 Canadian dollars, and if the applicant is willing to live in the province, 50,000 Canadian dollars will be returned.
