Hi there!
We chose a program called MPNP to apply for PR-Card in Canada. The details of MPNP will be described later.
Firstly, let’s have a look at the outline of applying for PR-Card in Canada.
PR-Card Application Program
PR-Card Application Program is listed on Canada’s official website.
Immigrate as a skilled worker
Immigrate by being nominated by a Canadian province or territory
Sponsor your relatives, including your spouse, partner, children, parents, grandparents, and others to immigrate
Immigrate as a skilled worker in the province of Quebec
Immigrate by graduating from a school or working in New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, or Newfoundland and Labrador
Immigrate by providing care for children, the elderly or those with medical needs, or work as a live-in caregiver
Immigrate by starting a business and creating jobs
Immigrate as a self-employed person in cultural or athletic activities
Smaller Canadian communities supporting their local economy through immigration. Pilot opens to permanent resident applicants later in 2019
Immigrate by working in specific agri-food industries and occupations
Immigrate as a refugee or become a sponsor
We think that most people choose to apply for PR-Card in the categories of (1) Express Entry or (2) Provincial nominees. These are general and voluntary programs for the applicants.
