How to get a Canadian green card

You have to apply to get a Canadian green card. The application conditions are as follows.

Canadian green card application conditions:

1. If the applicant or spouse is employed by a Canadian company, they can apply for a Canadian green card, but there may be fraud in this way, so the immigration officer's examination will be very strict.

The materials to be submitted include business license, accounting statements, labor contracts signed with employees, payroll, income tax forms, etc. If it is necessary to be sent abroad, it is also necessary to explain the reasons for the company's work abroad.

2. The spouse is a Canadian citizen.

When one spouse (such as a wife) has lived in Canada for four years and obtained Canadian citizenship after a cumulative period of three years, and the other spouse (such as a husband) is a permanent resident of Canada, he can travel overseas from Canada with the citizen-added spouse and be exempted from living in Canada.

3. Apply for family reunion and obtain Canadian immigration status.

If Canadian permanent residents cannot meet the above two conditions, that is, they are not Canadian overseas employees and their spouses are not Canadian citizens, there are two ways: first, the applicant's spouse holds valid Canadian permanent resident status and obtains immigration status through spouse guarantee.

2. The applicant 18-year-old children live in Canada and earn income from work, and obtain immigration status through child sponsorship.

The Canadian Maple Leaf Card is valid for five years from the date of issuance. ? However, under some special circumstances, if the applicant loses his permanent resident status because he fails to fulfill his residence obligations abroad, he can apply for a one-year maple leaf card. ?

The application for Maple Leaf Card must be made in China, and the applicant must provide a guarantor who lives in Canada. The guarantor must be a Canadian citizen and have known the applicant for more than two years.

The card has laser-printed photos and signatures, and contains the physical characteristics of the cardholder, such as gender, height and eye color. Moreover, the maple leaf card contains a more accurate high-tech design than the bank financial card tape, and contains all the data needed for permanent resident identification, which can only be read by authorized officials.

It will not be used to track the activities of cardholders, so it can protect the privacy of cardholders. ? From June 5438+1 October12004, maple leaf cards will completely replace the old immigration paper, and get rid of the troubles of being too large to carry, being easily altered, photocopied or fraudulently used. On August 24th, 2009, Citizenship and Immigration Canada began to use the new maple leaf card, as shown in the following figure.

The convenience for green card holders to work in China

Articles 4 to 7 of the Measures stipulate various benefits that green card holders can enjoy when working in China. Among them, Article 4 clearly stipulates that "those who are employed in China are exempt from the Alien Employment Certificate"; Those who meet the requirements can give priority to the Foreign Expert Certificate, the Returned Expert Certificate and the National Talent Residence Permit.

Article 5 stipulates that "foreign direct investment can be made in China with legally available RMB", which can reduce the tax and exchange costs of investment; Article 6 stipulates that "development and reform, commerce, industry and commerce, foreign exchange and other departments should simplify the examination and approval procedures and improve efficiency in accordance with the relevant provisions on foreign investment management when investing in projects and establishing foreign-invested enterprises in China".

Article 7 stipulates that "you can participate in the qualification evaluation of professional and technical posts and the qualification examination of professional and technical personnel in accordance with regulations".

The treatment of "green card" holders in life

In terms of children's schooling, the Measures stipulate that "the children who move with them receive compulsory education, and those who meet the requirements can enjoy relevant policies. The education administrative department of the place of residence shall go through the admission and transfer procedures in accordance with the principle of nearest admission, and shall not charge fees other than those stipulated by the state".

This is the first time at the national level that the children of "green card" holders are allowed to receive compulsory education in their place of residence and enjoy the treatment of local residents. In view of the fact that the admission requirements for foreign students in China's higher education stage are more applicable to the children of foreign talents, it is still implemented according to the current policy.
