Canada Visa In Pakistan

Visit Canada from Pakistan

Nationals from Pakistan enjoy coming to Canada as visitors, whether to see family, friends, or the country’s great landscapes and friendly people. To come to Canada as a visitor, nationals of Pakistan need to apply for a Temporary Resident Visa.

To qualify for a visa, the applicant must:

• Be in good health
• Have a valid passport or other travel document
• Have no criminal convictions
• Have no immigration-related convictions
• Demonstrate ties to home country (i.e., a job, home, financial assets, or family) that are incentives for the applicant to return home at the end of the permitted stay
• Have sufficient funds for the stay (The amount of money needed varies based on how long one stays and whether accommodations are a hotel, friends, or relatives).

There are 2 categories of documents that need to be provided 1) Government Forms and 2) Personal Documents.

1. Government Forms that need to be completed are:

• Application for Temporary Resident Visa (IMM5257)
• Family Information form (IMM5707)
• Statutory Declaration of Common-Law Union (IMM5409)
• Use of a Representative (IMM5476)
• Authority to Release Personal Information to a Designated Individual (IMM5475)

2. Personal Documents that need to be provided are:

•  Receipt for fees paid to a Visa Office or Visa Application Centre (VAC)
• A photocopy of the information page of a travel document
• Proof of financial means
• Photocopy of marriage certificate/license
• Purpose of travel
• Photocopy of documents pertaining to current immigration status

The applicant may also need a medical exam and letter of invitation from someone who lives in Canada.

Once the fees are paid and the application is submitted, the applicant will receive a letter from the Visa Office or the VAC (Letter of Instruction) confirming the need for biometric data to be provided and directives on where to go. This letter must be presented when going to the Biometrics appointment. Locations where Biometric data can be provided is listed at the following site: https://www.cic.gc.ca/englis/information/where-to-give-Biometrics.asp

* Additional 3rd party fees that applicants may need to pay include educational credential assessments or language testing. Based on the specific circumstances, the instruction guide will outline what fees are required from the applicant. 

Things to Keep in Mind!

! All foreign nationals must be admissible to Canada. In other words, applicants from Pakistan must be considered healthy and safe to immigrate. 

! Not being truthful on an application, by withholding pertinent information or answering dishonestly is called “misrepresentation” and can result in not only a refusal of the application and but also possibly barring him/her from applying for resident status (inadmissible) for up to 5 years.

Permanent Residency in Canada from Pakistan

The “Express Entry” online system for immigrating to Canada processes applications as quickly as six months. The applicant creates a Profile to apply for Permanent Residence (PR) status and completes the sections, resulting in points being awarded to each category of the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). The goal of the point system is to forecast the likeliness of the applicant succeeding in their life in Canada if they were to be granted permanent resident status. Factors taken into consideration for the evaluation are: the applicant’s previous work experience, training, knowledge, and what they have to offer socially and economically. The Government of Canada extends an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent resident status to candidates scoring the highest number of total points.

Pakistani nationals wishing to immigrate to Canada may want to consider the following Express Entry programs:

1. Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) Class 
2. Federal Skilled Trades (FST) Class
3. Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
4. Provincial Nomination Program (PNP)
5. Family Class

1. Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) Class

The Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) Class allows Pakistani nationals with training and experience in designated professions to apply for permanent residency in Canada. CRS Points are earned depending on skilled work experience, English/French language abilities, education, proof of funds, admissibility, and other factors (including age, existence of a job offer, and adaptability). Depending on the applicant’s ranking, an ITA to apply for permanent residency will — or will not — be sent to them by the government. ITAs are sent to those with the highest scores.

Nationals of Pakistan applying through this stream must provide evidence of their skilled work experience, as outlined by the National Occupation Classification (NOC) system, in one of the following job groups:

1. Managerial job (Skill Type “0”) – in areas such as factories, offices, or resorts.
2. Professional job (Skill Level “A”) – such as architects, accountants, lawyers, teachers, medical workers.
3. Technical job and skilled trades (Skill Level “B”) – such as chefs, plumbers, electricians.

The following process outline is only for applicants seeking to reside in provinces outside of Québec, as that province has its own selection process for skilled workers.

Skilled Work

Nationals of Pakistan, applying for this stream must demonstrate that, they previously gained experience and performed the duties outlined in the lead statement of the NOC description, including all essential duties and most of the main duties for the job (with the same NOC code) that they are seeking to work in upon immigrating to Canada. The previous professional experience must have been paid work (not internships or volunteer service) and gained within the last 10 years, for at least one continuous year of employment.  

Note: Both full-time and part-time employment periods qualify, based on the hours earned. Student work experience may also count so long as the work was paid, was continuous and meets other requirements of the program.

Language

Pakistani nationals applying for this stream must take an approved English and/or French language test for reading, writing, listening, and speaking and earn a minimum score of 7 of the Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) in all four areas. Note: Results are valid for 2 years after the date of the test results and must be valid on the day of application for permanent residence.

Education

Nationals of Pakistan, with credentials from countries other than Canada, must provide the following for the FSW stream of the Express Entry system:

1. From a recognized institution, provide a diploma, degree, or trade apprenticeship certificate proving the completion of study/training 

AND

2. From a designated organization, an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) for immigration purposes to show the education is equal to a completed certificate, diploma, or degree from a Canadian secondary or post-secondary institution.

Note: If the applicant has completed studies at a Canadian secondary or post-secondary institution then a certificate, diploma, or degree must be provided.

Proof of Funds

To settle in Canada, when seeking to immigrate to Canada through certain programs in the Express Entry system, Pakistani applicants must show that they have sufficient funds for not only themselves but also for any family joining them. (For individuals who are already legally working in Canada or have a valid job offer from a Canada-based employer, this requirement is waived).
