“New Immigration Rules Make it Simpler for Americans to live and work in Canada. “
Changes announced to immigration norms following the US elections shall facilitate Americans wanting to move to Canada. And that is something wonderful for majority of Americans wanting to move to Canada.
Easier move toward Canada citizenship after coming to Canada—Yes. Americans coming to Canada shall find it easier to get Canada citizenship once they come here. Would-be immigrants(except family members or refugees) shall have to qualify for certain required points. This is needed for getting into a pool of potential immigrants.
The points system considers a host of factors including age, language proficiency, education and work experience. Invitation for application to Canada permanent residency is offered to best-qualified applicants. This comes with the right to work in Canada. This can further prove to be a route for Canada citizenship as well. That’s wonderful, isn’t it? Indeed.
As per a Canada immigration lawyer based in Toronto, allocation of points by Canada favors some citizens more than others. Guidy Mamann further stated that Americans, due to the English proficiency, get ranked higher in the pool.
Recent changes—Let us see some of the major recent changes here—
- Applicants shall now be able to get points by working in Canada. This is quite easier for Americans due to NAFTA.
- Mexicans and Americans on the list of occupations shall get an automatic right to work in Canada.
- An additional 50 points shall be awarded to an applicant who is an American and working under a work permit for one year. This will be enabling Americans get ranked higher in the pool. And this will certainly increase their chances of Canada immigration, added Mamann.
- The number of invitations to apply for Canada permanent residency is going to increase. Invitations have increased from 750 every two weeks to 2,000 each week.
