Guidelines On How To Apply For Canadian Residency

By Agnes Dickson


Being granted with permanent residency in a country will mean that you could live and could work at any place of that country. But, you will be prohibited from voting or for running for a political position. You are also prohibited from staying away from the country for so long. You could attend classes at schools and, in some of the countries, be able to have healthcare benefits.

You may have all that benefits by the time you become a Canadian resident. There are just some things on how to apply for Canadian residency. You must follow those things for you to get the status.

First, you should understand that you may be a resident but you are still not a citizen of that country. You also have to pay taxes and obey the law. If you are a resident, you may apply for citizenship after living there for a number of years.

You are required to get a Permanent Resident Card. This card is your proof that you have a Canadian residency. If you leave Canada, you will be needing this card to be able to enter back to Canada. This card is a plastic card just like those health cards or a license. You will receive it in the mail when you have Canadian residency. It is valid for about five years. After five years, you should renew that one.

To have one, you must first have all the needed documents. You should have one primary identity papers like a passport or a travel document. You should have another identity papers. You may place a copy of the driving license you have or a student ID or you tax document. You may submit more for added proof. If you are below 18, you must place a birth certificate or some papers from a guardian.

Place two of your pictures in a tiny envelope. Those pictures are those taken within the twelve months of your application. Write down your name on the envelope. The picture should show your face clearly. You look must be neutral. You could wear glasses or any accessory but check that it does not disguise you.

If one of your documents is not in English or French, you should include an English or French translation of it. You should also include an affidavit from the person who translated that. Make sure it is certified. The copy must not be certified by a family member. You should remember that it should be certified in Canada.

Complete the form for application. Make sure that what you have provided is accurate. If there is missing information, it will be returned and will just cause a delay. Pay its fee. For now, it has a 50 US dollar cost. Print your receipt for added proof. Have them mailed to a processing center.

To have Canadian residency provides a person many benefits. The rights and the benefits a person has would almost be the same as being a citizen. A person is also protected by their laws. If you like to be a one, just see to it that you qualify.
