Canada offers dozens of immigration programs for professionals from a wide range of industries. These programs are designed for people of different professions and qualifications, and there are no age restrictions. The same applies to English language skills: some programs have minimal English requirements at a school level. And if you speak French at an intermediate level, many opportunities open up for immigration to the province of Quebec. In most cases, having a job offer from a Canadian employer is a required condition — but there are pathways where this is not necessary.

Here’s a general immigration strategy for Canada that applies to most people:

• Option 1. Assess your chances of obtaining permanent residence (PR) in Canada either on your own or with the help of an immigration specialist — without a job offer. If you meet the requirements of the program, you will receive an invitation to apply online for PR from Canada’s Ministry of Immigration and Citizenship.
• Option 2. Try to find a job while still outside of Canada. To be honest, this is extremely challenging, though possible with the right strategy. If you succeed and get a job offer, our immigration specialists will be happy to help you process a work visa for the main applicant, a partner’s work visa, and student visas for children. Children of parents on a work visa have the right to free education in Canadian schools. Below, you’ll find a link to materials on how to look for suitable employers.
• Option 3. To slightly improve your chances of employment, you can come to Canada on a tourist visa and search for a job while in the country. This also gives you a chance to improve your English — a tourist visa allows you to study in language courses for up to 24 weeks. If you manage to find a job, you’ll need to apply for the appropriate visa (Work Permit). Language courses typically cost between 300–400 CAD per week. Also, plan for living expenses from 400 to 1,000 CAD per week depending on the city.
• Option 4. To further increase your chances of success, you can complete a 1.5–2 year vocational program in your desired field. During your studies, you can continue looking for a job and even work part-time (up to 20 hours per week). After graduation, you may be eligible for a post-graduate work visa, which significantly simplifies further employment. There are also options to bring your family, with your partner receiving a work visa. Vocational education typically costs between 20,000–30,000 CAD per year. In addition, you’ll need to show proof of funds for living expenses, around 20,000 CAD per year, to obtain a visa.

Language courses in Canada are available for people from the age of 8 and up — with no upper age limit.
They offer a great opportunity to significantly improve your English skills. It’s also a great way to explore the country from the inside and travel around in your free time. While English language studies do not allow you to work part-time, you can search for a potential employer to later switch to a long-term work visa.

Courses typically cost between 300 to 400 CAD per week. Accommodation options include school dormitories, host families, or renting on your own. Depending on the city, living expenses range from 400 to 1,000 CAD per week.

There are no age limits for students in Canada. You can start learning something from scratch, retrain in a new field, or upgrade your existing qualifications. There’s a wide range of disciplines and study programs to choose from. In some cases, you can bring your family with you. Your partner may be allowed to work, and your children may be eligible for free public schooling. Some programs — the ones we recommend for immigration purposes — give you the right to apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) after completing your studies. This type of visa significantly increases your chances of finding employment in Canada.

Professional programs usually cost between 20,000 and 30,000 CAD per year. In addition, to obtain a student visa, you’ll need to show proof of funds to cover living expenses — about 20,000 CAD per year.

One of the key requirements for immigration through this pathway is having your startup supported by a designated organization that approves your project and agrees to invest in it. You must also demonstrate that you can financially support yourself and your family while living in Canada — 13,757 CAD per year for the main applicant and 3,300–4,000 CAD for each additional family member. Additionally, you need to have a sufficient level of English (or French for Quebec applicants).

This program allows up to five co-founders of a startup and their family members to obtain permanent residence in Canada.
