Chapter 1: Understanding the Canadian Immigration System
Section 1: The Basics of Canadian Immigration
IF YOU ARE THINKING about immigrating to Canada, you might be wondering how the Canadian immigration system works and what are the different options available for you. In this section, we will cover the basics of Canadian immigration and help you understand the main concepts and terms that you will encounter throughout your immigration journey.
What is immigration and citizenship?
Let’s start with some basic definitions. What is immigration and what is citizenship?
Immigration is the process of moving to a new country to live there permanently or temporarily. People who immigrate to a new country are called immigrants. Immigrants usually have different reasons for immigrating, such as :
● Seeking better opportunities for themselves and their families
● Pursuing education or career goals
● Reuniting with loved ones
● Escaping persecution, violence, or hardship
● Exploring new cultures and experiences
Citizenship is the legal status of being a member of a country. People who have citizenship of a country are called citizens. Citizens usually have certain rights and responsibilities in their country, such as voting, paying taxes, serving in the military, or travelling with a passport.
In Canada, immigration and citizenship are two separate things. You can immigrate to Canada without becoming a citizen, and you can become a citizen without immigrating to Canada. For example, you can immigrate to Canada as a permanent resident or a temporary resident, but you will not automatically become a citizen. You will have to apply for citizenship after meeting certain requirements. On the other hand, you can become a citizen without immigrating to Canada if you were born outside Canada to a Canadian parent or if you were adopted by a Canadian parent.
What are the types of immigration to Canada?
There are two main types of immigration to Canada: temporary and permanent.
Temporary immigration means that you come to Canada for a limited period of time, usually for a specific purpose, such as visiting, studying, working, or seeking asylum. Temporary immigrants need to have a valid document that allows them to enter and stay in Canada, such as a visa, an electronic travel authorization (eTA), or a permit. Temporary immigrants are also subject to certain conditions and restrictions, such as the duration and purpose of their stay, the type and amount of work they can do, and the need to leave Canada when their document expires or is revoked.
Permanent immigration means that you come to Canada with the intention of settling here permanently. Permanent immigrants are also known as permanent residents or landed immigrants. Permanent residents have the right to live, work, study, and access social services anywhere in Canada. They also have certain obligations, such as paying taxes, obeying the law, and respecting Canadian values. Permanent residents can apply for Canadian citizenship after meeting certain criteria, such as living in Canada for a minimum number of years, demonstrating language proficiency, passing a citizenship test, and taking an oath of allegiance.
Who is in charge of immigration in Canada?
In Canada, immigration is managed by two levels of government: the federal government and the provincial governments.
The federal government is the national government that represents all Canadians. The federal government is responsible for setting the overall immigration policies and laws, determining the number and type of immigrants that Canada accepts each year, processing immigration applications, issuing visas and permits, conducting security checks and medical exams, conducting interviews and landing procedures, providing pre-arrival and post-arrival services and programs, and granting citizenship.
The federal government’s main department that deals with immigration is called Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). IRCC is led by a minister who is appointed by the prime minister. IRCC has offices across Canada and around the world where you can submit your application, pay your fees, take your language test, do your medical exam, attend your interview, or get your visa or permit.
The provincial governments are the regional governments that represent each province or territory in Canada. There are 10 provinces and 3 territories in Canada. The provincial governments are responsible for setting their own immigration policies and laws that suit their specific needs and priorities, selecting immigrants that can contribute to their economic and social development, nominating immigrants for permanent residence through their own immigration programs, providing settlement and integration services and programs within their jurisdictions, and issuing provincial health cards and driver’s licenses.
Each province or territory has its own department or ministry that deals with immigration. For example, in Ontario, it is called the Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development (MLTSD). In Alberta, it is called the Ministry of Labour and Immigration (MLI). Each province or territory also has its own immigration program that works with IRCC. For example, in Ontario, it is called Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP). In Alberta, it is called Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP).
The federal government and the provincial governments work together to manage immigration in Canada through various agreements and partnerships. For example, one of the most important agreements is called Canada-Quebec Accord, which gives Quebec more autonomy and control over its own immigration program. Another example is called Atlantic Immigration Pilot (AIP), which is a partnership between the federal government and four Atlantic provinces (New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador) to attract more immigrants to their regions.
