How to Apply for Canada Immigration?

Canada is one of the world’s best countries to immigrate to, for its quality of life, citizenship, and various other factors. We should also note that Canada’s point-based Permanent Residency program is one of the easiest immigration programs in the world.

The Canadian government has an immigration plan to invite over 1 million new immigrants on Permanent Residence (PR) visas in the next three years. The IRCC will invite most of these newcomers under the economic immigration programs, i.e. under the skilled migration programs, such as, Express Entry System, Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), etc.
