If you are looking to move to Canada from India, here is a brief guide on how you can do that.

How to move to Canada from India?

  • Know the visa process for moving to Canada
  • Know the employment visa process
  • Know other requirements for permanent residency in Canada

Know the visa process for moving to Canada

You need to be eligible for a visa. You can apply for a visa if you meet the following criteria:

  • You are a permanent resident of Canada.
  • You have worked in Canada for at least two years and have paid taxes there during that time (unless your employer doesn’t withhold taxes from your salary).
  • You must have an offer of employment from a Canadian employer with whom you wish to work for at least 3 years or until graduation, whichever comes first. The offer must be on their official letterhead and include all information regarding salary, benefits, vacation time, and so on; also make sure that no clause states “no inference” about whether or not they will renew after 3 years since this world means that they’d be able to cancel it at any point during those three years if they wanted too!

Know the Employment Visa process

If you are planning to move to Canada, then you need to know the employment visa process. You can apply for an Employment Permit from the Canadian government. The requirements for applying for an Employment Permit are:

  • You have a job offer in Canada for at least 1 year (for 2 years) and/or 3 years (for 5 years).
  • Your employer must be willing and able to pay your airfare, medical exam fees, education costs, and other expenses while they’re waiting for your visa approval letter. 

Know the other requirements for permanent residency in Canada

  • You must have a job offer.
  • The employer who is sponsoring you must be Canadian.
  • Your job offer must pay at least CAD$55,000 per year (this is the average salary of all full-time employees in Canada).

Apply for Canadian Permanent Resident Card (PR Card) 

Apply for Canadian Permanent Resident Card (PR Card) as soon as you enter Canada.

Apply for a PR Card within 90 days of entering Canada and within 6 months of your arrival date in Canada, if you are a Business visitor or an International Student who has been granted a work permit. If your visa is valid until the end of its validity period, then it will be automatically extended by 10 days upon entry into Canada. So don’t worry about applying for Permanent Resident Visa!

Are you eligible for visa exemption?

You can apply for a study permit if you are a student and wish to study in Canada. A student must be enrolled at an educational institution that is authorized by the government of Canada, as well as meet all other requirements set out by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). The CIC set out different types of Study Permits that can be used by foreign nationals wishing to undertake post-secondary studies in Canadian universities or colleges:

The Foreign Student Work Permit (PSWP) allows foreign students who are already legally present in Canada temporarily with their sponsor’s employer or principal place of business when they arrive will be able to work full time during their studies; however, this permit does not allow them access into the labor market directly after completing their programs but only through an application process through CIC which may result in permanent residence status being granted upon successful completion of these programs depending on eligibility criteria established by CIC each year starting from January 1st until December 31st where applicable. 

What are the expenditures and timelines associated with this process?

The cost of visa processing depends on the nationality of your passport. If you have an Indian passport, then it will cost $80 (US) for an e-visa and $85 (US) for a paper application if your country is one of the following:

  • United States
  • New Zealand
  • Australia

Here is a brief guide on how you can migrate to Canada from India 

To move to Canada from India, you should first apply for a visa. This can be done through an Indian Consulate or Embassy in your country of origin and will require several documents such as an application form, passport photocopy, and photograph as well as proof of finances.

Once you have received your visa, it’s time to start preparing yourself for the immigration process. All migrants who wish to settle permanently in Canada must apply under one of three programs:

  • Canadian Experience Class (CEC): This program offers eligible applicants permanent residency after working in Canada for two years on a full-time basis with no breaks during those two years; however, this does not guarantee that they will receive citizenship after five years unless they meet certain criteria set out by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). If so then there is no need for them anymore because all permanent residents are entitled by law

To summarize, we have discussed the steps involved in getting your Indian passport and visa stamped in Canada. You will need to follow these steps very carefully so that you don’t run into any problems while completing them. The first step is getting your passport stamped with an entry visa (which is valid for 6 months). Then you need to apply for an ETA (entry to stay) visa which would be valid for 3 years at the most. Once that’s done, then you can move forward with applying for permanent residency status under one of three categories: Economic Class, Labour Market Class, or Skilled Worker Class.
