Is Canada a permanent resident after successfully applying for an immigrant visa?

After the applicant's information and conditions have passed the examination, the Canadian Immigration Bureau will issue the applicant with an immigration identity confirmation paper (IMM5292) and a Canadian permanent resident visa affixed to the China passport. This document proves the right of immigrants to live permanently and is a permanent and effective historical document. Access requires the assistance of a time-sensitive maple leaf card.

This only means that you have permanent residency in Canada, but if you want to get a Canadian passport, that is, naturalization, you need other conditions: immigrants can apply for citizenship, that is, naturalization, as long as they have lived for four years within six years and lived for 183 days a year. If you are successful in naturalization, you will get a Canadian passport and become a Canadian in the legal sense.

After successful naturalization, you will enjoy more Canadian welfare policies.

Canadian citizens and permanent residents enjoy the same benefits, such as child benefits, pension benefits, tax-free benefits, medical benefits, unemployment insurance, etc. But there are also many differences.

1. Permanent residents have no right to vote, that is, they have no right to interfere in the level of state leadership. At the same time, you can't participate in politics, and you can't get involved in some work related to politics and state power information. After all, you are not Canadian.

2. Permanent residents may be deprived of their identity and ordered to leave the country. For example, if you violate Canadian law and are charged with imprisonment for more than six months, you may be deprived of your immigration status and issue an expulsion order.

3. Canadian passports enjoy visa-free access to 183 countries and regions, or landing visa. However, permanent residents can't get such benefits. Permanent resident visas in other countries are generally based on household registration, but having a Canadian permanent resident visa will have certain advantages in handling short-term visas in other countries.

4. Canadian citizens need visas to enter China, but permanent residents can get China passports without any obstacles.
