In the post-epidemic era, I believe that no country can compare with Canada in terms of immigration.
Various favorable policies have frequently emerged, which injects fresh energy into the advancement of the Canadian economy, but also brings unprecedented opportunities to immigrant applicants.
On June 8, 2021, Canadian time, Canadian Immigration Bureau announced two new immigration policies for Hong Kong residents,< /strong>It aims to provide qualified Hong Kong workers or international students with a path to permanent residence in Canada.
In other words, Canadian fresh graduates and migrant workers who hold Hong Kong passports have more ways to obtain PR (permanent residence).
Currently, this policy has been opened, valid until August 31, 2026, and there is no quota limit.
The Hong Kong Immigration New Policy announced this time is divided into two categories. The first is for international students who graduated in Canada (Stream A), and the second is for jobs with Canadian work experience (Stream B).
