Here are some key aspects of immigration law in Ontario:
Work Permits
Immigrants who wish to work in Ontario may need a work permit. This can be either a federal work permit, such as a Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) permit or International Mobility Program (IMP) permit, or a provisional work permit issued under the OINP’s Employer Job Offer Category.
Study Permits
International students coming to Ontario to study typically need a study permit. They can apply for a study permit through the federal government, and some may be eligible for the Post-Graduation Work Permit Program (PGWPP) after they complete their studies.
Family Sponsorship
Ontario residents can sponsor eligible family members, such as spouses, dependent children, parents, and grandparents, to come to Canada through the federal Family Class sponsorship program.
Citizenship
Becoming a Canadian citizen is a federal process, and the eligibility requirements are determined by the Government of Canada. Applicants must meet specific residency and language requirements to qualify for citizenship.
Immigration laws and regulations can change over time, so always ensure that you have the most up-to-date information and consult with immigration professionals or legal experts.
