Taking a look at the demographic history of Canada, the country has been admitting more and more immigrants across its borders. Canada has struggled with having a low population despite being the biggest country in all of the Americas. Its current population is only about 10 percent that of the US. As such, the government is committed to boosting the population, with the main goal of achieving higher productivity in the long term. Here are facts regarding immigration to Canada.

Immigrants from different countries are admitted into Canada through various programs set up by the government. There are several steps that must be followed in every program before one is approved to migrate into the country. It also takes a long time to be approved for the move. It takes between a few months to a few years for the immigration process to be completed.

Knowing what options are available can increase the chances of being approved faster. One can also avoid delays, frustrations, and pitfalls if they know how they should go about the process. Generally, there are five options that one can pursue to become a Canadian citizen. These five options exist in form of programs and they include express entry program, family class sponsorship, LMIA work visa, Canadian investor immigration, and the provincial nominee programs (PNP).

There is a provision for people to migrate to Canada under the express entry program and become Canadian workers. There is a sophisticate system which people with required skills are recruited, and assessed for migration. Under the federal economic immigration programs, there are three sub-programs. They are FSTP, CEC and FSWP. These programs are aimed at meeting labor market demands in the country.

Family reunification is highly valued in the Canadian policy for immigration. Therefore, one can gain permanent Canadian citizenship if their family member is already a Canadian citizen and wishes to sponsor them into the country. Only permanent residents and Canadian citizens are allowed to sponsor their relatives into the country.

One is only allowed to sponsor their children and spouse. The children that one sponsors must be under the age of 22 years even though there are some exceptions to this rule. One is not allowed to sponsor their grandparents of parents at the moment. However, one can use the super visa category to have their parents or grandparents move to Canadian cities.

Many people who apply to Canadian immigration start by getting a Canadian job offer. They then apply for a work visa. The work visa gives them the basis to move to Canadian cities. With the LMIA work visa program, one must secure a Canadian job offer first. The Canadian employer is the one that applies for an LMIA. If the LMIA is approved, the applicant can then apply for a work permit.

It is becoming more popular for people to use the PNP program to migrate into Canadian cities. Immigration programs have been established by individual provinces such as Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario to admit foreigners. People who get into Canada through these programs are required to stay in the province whose program they first entered the country.
