What is Canada PR?

Canada Permanent Residency (PR) allows foreign nationals to live, work, and settle in Canada indefinitely with most of the rights of Canadian citizens. After fulfilling residency obligations, PR holders can even apply for Canadian citizenship.

📝 How to Apply for Canada PR from India in 2025?

Here’s a simplified overview of the steps involved:

1. Check Your Eligibility

Use the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) under Express Entry, or check eligibility for Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs) based on your qualifications, age, work experience, and language skills.

2. Language Proficiency Test

Take the IELTS or CELPIP test to prove your English proficiency (French is also accepted through TEF/TCF).

3. Educational Credential Assessment (ECA)

Your foreign education must be evaluated by a recognized organization like WES to match Canadian standards.

4. Create Your Express Entry Profile

Submit your profile online and enter the pool of candidates. Higher CRS scores increase your chance of getting an Invitation to Apply (ITA).

5. Apply After Receiving ITA

Submit documents and pay fees within 60 days of receiving your ITA.

6. Medical & Police Verification

Undergo a medical exam and submit police clearance certificates.

7. Receive Confirmation of PR

Once approved, you’ll receive a COPR (Confirmation of Permanent Residence) and a PR visa.

🧳 Canada Open Work Permit vs. Closed Work Permit – What’s the Difference?

When considering moving to Canada, many Indians confuse the Open Work Permit and the Closed Work Permit. Here's how they differ:

Type of Permit	Open Work Permit	Closed Work Permit
Employer-specific?	❌ No – You can work for any employer	✅ Yes – Tied to a specific employer and job offer
Flexibility	✅ High – Change employers freely	❌ Low – Limited to one employer
Examples	Spousal Work Permit, PGWP	LMIA-based Work Permit
Ideal For	Dependents, Graduates, Job Seekers	Skilled Workers with confirmed job offers

At GO GLOBAL IMMIGRATION SERVICES, we help you assess which permit suits your profile and career goals best.

What About Canada’s Job Seeker Visa?

Unlike Germany or Sweden, Canada does not currently have a Job Seeker Visa that allows you to enter the country and search for jobs on-site. However, you can still legally explore work opportunities in Canada through Open Work Permits, study permits, or strategic PNP programs.
