கனடா ஏன் அடுத்த மூன்று ஆண்டுகளில் கிட்டத்தட்ட ஒரு மில்லியன் மக்களை வரவேற்க உள்ளது?

உலகில் உள்ள அத்தனை நாடுகளின் மத்தியில், குறுகிய காலக் கட்டத்தில் மிகுந்த வளர்ச்சி கண்ட நாடுகளில் கனேடிய நாடும் ஒன்று. கனடாவில் ஒரு தனி மனிதன், ஒரு மிகச் சிறந்த வாழ்க்கையை வாழ்வதற்கான அனைத்து வசதிகளும் உள்ளன. இவ்விடத்தில், கனடாவின் பொருளாதாரம் உலகின் மிக சிறந்த பத்து நாடுகளில் ஒன்று என்றும் அதன் வளர்ச்சி நாளுக்கு நாள் உயர்ந்து கொண்டே போகிறது என்பதையும் குறிப்பிட்டாகவே வேண்டும்.

ஒரு நாட்டின் பொருளாதார வளர்ச்சி பல காரணங்களைச் சார்ந்து உள்ளது. அவை அனைத்தும் அந்நாட்டின் வளர்ச்சிக்கே துணை நிற்கின்றன. அதுபோல கனேடிய நாட்டின் வளர்ச்சிக்கும் பல காரணங்கள் உண்டு. அவற்றுள் ஒரு முக்கியமான காரணம் “மக்களின் குடியேற்றம்”.

கருத்து கணிப்புகள் குறிப்பிடுவது என்னவென்றால், கனடாவில் ஐந்தில் ஒரு மனிதன் வெளிநாட்டைச் சார்ந்தவன் ஆவான். கனேடிய அரசாங்கமும் இதை ஆதரித்து இதனை மேம்படுத்தப் பல முயற்சிகளை எடுத்த வண்ணம் உள்ளது. இதற்கிடையில் கனேடிய அரசாங்கம் அடுத்த மூன்று ஆண்டுகளின் முடிவில் கிட்டத்தட்ட ஒரு மில்லியன் மக்களை வரவேற்க உள்ளது. அதற்கான காரணங்கள் கீழ் கண்டவாறு உள்ளன:

1. திறமையான தொழிலாளர்களின் பற்றாக்குறை: –

சிறந்த தொழிலாளர்கள் ஒரு நாட்டின் வளர்ச்சிக்கு முக்கிய பங்கை வகிக்கிறார்கள். ஒரு நாட்டில் தேவையான அளவிற்கு திறமையான தொழிலார்கள் இருக்குமாயின் அந்நாட்டின் வளர்ச்சி மிகச் சிறந்ததாக இருக்கும். மார்ச் மாதம் 13ஆம் தேதி ,2018ஆம் ஆண்டின் படி கனடாவில் ஏறக்குறைய 400,000 காலி பணியிடங்கள் உள்ளதாக கணக்கிடப்பட்டுள்ளது. இந்த பற்றாக்குறையை நிரப்பவே கனேடிய அரசாங்கம் இவ்வாறு ஒரு முடிவினை எடுத்துள்ளது.

2. பொருளாதார வளர்ச்சியும் மக்களின் குடியேற்றமும்: –

கனேடிய நாட்டின் பொருளாதாரம் கடந்த ஐந்து ஆண்டுகளில் வரலாறு காணாத வளர்ச்சி கண்டுள்ளது. இந்த வளர்ச்சி அந்நாட்டின் குறைவான பிறப்பு தொகையினாலும் வேகமாக வயதடையும் மக்களினாலும் மிகுந்த பின்னடைவை சந்திக்கும். அடுத்த இரண்டு தசாப்தத்தில் எந்தவித நடவடிக்கையும் எடுக்கவில்லையெனில் இந்த பொருளாதார வளர்ச்சி சரிவை சந்திக்கும். அதே சமயம், மக்களின் குடியேற்றம் தடைபடாமல் இருக்குமாயின் நாட்டின் வளர்ச்சி முன்னோக்கி செல்வது மட்டுமல்லாமல் சிறந்த பொருளாதார வளர்ச்சியும் காணப்படும்.

3. வேகமாக வயதடையும் மக்களின் தொகை: –

சமீபத்திய அறிக்கைகள் குறிப்பிடுவதும் கூறுவதும் என்னவென்றால் கனேடிய அரசாங்கம் மக்கள் குடியேற்றத்தை நிறுத்துமாயின், மீதமுள்ள கனேடிய மக்கள் வேகமாக வயதடைவார்கள். 2040 ஆம் ஆண்டின் படி 26.9 சதவீத கனேடிய மக்கள் 65 வயதை தாண்டியிருப்பர். இதன் விளைவு, கனேடிய தொழிலாளர்களின் எண்ணிக்கையில் குறைவு ஏற்படுதல். தொழிலாளர்களின் எண்ணிக்கையில் குறைவு ஏற்படுமாயின் கனேடிய அரசாங்கம் மக்களுக்கு பயன்படும் திட்டங்களை தடையின்றி வழங்க வரிப்பணத்தை அதிகரிப்பதை தவிர வேறு வழியில்லாத நிலைக்கு தள்ளப்படும்.

2034 ஆம் ஆண்டின் படி கனடாவில் பிறப்பு எண்ணிக்கையை விட இறப்பு எண்ணிக்கை அதிகமாகிவிடும் என்று கணிக்கடப்பட்டுள்ளது. அப்பொழுது கனடாவில் மக்களின் குடியேற்றமே நாட்டின் வளர்ச்சியை மேம்படுத்துவதில் ஒரு முக்கிய பங்கை வகிக்கும். மக்களின் குடியேற்றம் கனடாவில் இன்றியமையாததாக விளங்கும். இதனை புரிந்து கொண்ட கனேடிய அரசாங்கம் வரும் நாட்களில் மக்களின் குடியேற்றத்தை அதிகரிக்க அனைத்து வித நடவடிக்கைகளையும் எடுத்து வருகின்றது. கனடாவுக்கு குடிபெயர உங்களுக்கு விருப்பமிருக்குமாயெனின் இதை விட பொன்னான நேரம் இல்லை. எங்கள் நிபுணர்களை தொடர்பு கொண்டு கனடாவுக்கு செல்வதற்கான இலவச தகுதி மதிப்பீட்டை உடனே பெற்று கொள்ளுங்கள்

കാനഡ അടുത്ത മൂന്നു വർഷങ്ങൾക്കുള്ളിൽ ഒരു ദശലക്ഷത്തോളം കുടിയേറ്റക്കാരെ സ്വാഗതം ചെയ്യാനൊരുങ്ങുന്നു. കാരണമറിയണ്ടേ?

Posted on 08/01/2019 by Venkat Karky 4 Comments

വളരെ കുറഞ്ഞ കാലയളവിനുള്ളിൽത്തന്നെ വികസനരംഗത്ത് വൻചുവടുവയ്പുകൾ നടത്തിയ രാജ്യമാണ് കാനഡ. വ്യവസായങ്ങൾ തുടങ്ങി ഉന്നതനിലവാരം പുലർത്തുന്ന സർവ്വകലാശാലകൾ വരെ ഒരു വ്യക്തിക്ക് മികച്ച നിലയിൽ ജീവിക്കുവാൻ ആവശ്യമായ എല്ലാ സൗകര്യങ്ങളും കാനഡയിലുണ്ട്. ലോകത്തിലെ പത്താമത്തെ ഏറ്റവും വലിയ സമ്പദ്വ്യവസ്ഥയാണ് കാനഡയുടേത്. കൂടാതെ കനേഡിയൻ സമ്പദ്വ്യവസ്ഥ അനുദിനം പുതിയ ഉയരങ്ങളിലേക്ക് കുതിക്കുകയാണ് എന്നതും അംഗീകരിക്കേണ്ട ഒരു സത്യമാണ്.

ഒരു രാജ്യത്തിന്റെ സാമ്പത്തികവളർച്ചയെ സ്വാധീനിക്കുന്ന പല ഘടകങ്ങളുണ്ട്. അതുപോലെ കാനഡയുടെ സാമ്പത്തികവളർച്ചയും നിരവധി ഘടകങ്ങളെ ആശ്രയിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു. അവയിൽ വളരെയധികം പ്രധാനപ്പെട്ട ഒന്നാണ് കുടിയേറ്റം. അതുകൊണ്ട് തന്നെ കാനഡ ഗവണ്മെന്റ് കുടിയേറ്റത്തിനു പ്രത്യേക പ്രാധാന്യവും പരിഗണനയും നൽകുന്നു. സ്ഥിതിവിവരക്കണക്കുകൾ പ്രകാരം കാനഡയിൽ അഞ്ചിലൊരാൾ കുടിയേറ്റക്കാരനാണ്. മൊത്തം കുടിയേറ്റക്കാർ കാനഡ ജനസംഖ്യയുടെ ഏകദേശം 21.5% വരും.

പുത്തൻകുടിയേറ്റക്കാരെ രാജ്യത്തേക്ക് ആകർഷിക്കാൻ കാനഡ ഗവണ്മെന്റ് എല്ലാ ശ്രമങ്ങളും നടത്തുന്നുണ്ട്. വരുന്ന മൂന്നു വർഷങ്ങളിലായി ഏകദേശം ഒരു ദശലക്ഷം പുതിയ കുടിയേറ്റക്കാരെ സ്വാഗതം ചെയ്യുവാനാണ് ഗവണ്മെന്റിന്റെ പദ്ധതി. എന്തുകൊണ്ടാണ് കുടിയേറ്റത്തിന്റെ കാര്യത്തിൽ കാനഡ ഇത്രയധികം താല്പര്യം കാണിക്കുന്നത്? വളരെയധികം ചർച്ച ചെയ്യപ്പെടുകയും ഒട്ടനവധി പേർ ഉത്തരം തേടുകയും ചെയ്ത ഒരു ചോദ്യമാണിത്. അതുകൊണ്ടുതന്നെ കാനഡക്ക് കുടിയേറ്റക്കാരെ ആവശ്യമുണ്ട് എന്ന വസ്തുതയ്ക്ക് മൂന്ന് വ്യക്തമായ കാരണങ്ങൾ നിങ്ങൾക്കുമുൻപിൽ അവതരിപ്പിക്കാൻ ഞങ്ങൾ ആഗ്രഹിക്കുന്നു.

വിദഗ്ധതൊഴിലാളികളുടെ ദൗർലഭ്യം

വിദഗ്ധതൊഴിലാളികളുടെ ലഭ്യത ഒരു സമ്പദ്വ്യവസ്ഥയുടെ വളർച്ചയേയും തളർച്ചയേയും നിർണായകമായി സ്വാധീനിക്കുവാൻ ശേഷിയുള്ള ഒരു ഘടകമാണ്. ആവശ്യത്തിന് വിദഗ്ധതൊഴിലാളികളുള്ള ഒരു രാജ്യം ഉയർന്ന സാമ്പത്തികവളർച്ച കൈവരിക്കുകയും തൽഫലമായി രാജ്യത്തെ ആളുകളുടെ ജീവിതനിലവാരം മെച്ചപ്പെടുകയും ചെയ്യും. 2018 മാർച്ച് 13ലെ കണക്കുപ്രകാരം കാനഡയിലുടനീളം ഏകദേശം നാല് ലക്ഷത്തോളം തൊഴിലവസരങ്ങൾ അർഹരായവരെ കാത്തിരിക്കുന്നുണ്ട്. തൊഴിലാളികളുടെ അഭാവം കാനഡയിലെ എല്ലാ പ്രൊവിൻസുകളെയും ബാധിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ട്. ഈ സാഹചര്യത്തിലാണ് സമ്പദ്വ്യവസ്ഥയുടെ വളർച്ചക്ക് സഹായകരമാകും വിധം തൊഴിലാളിലഭ്യത ഉറപ്പാക്കുന്ന തരത്തിൽ കുടിയേറ്റക്കാരുടെ എണ്ണം കൂട്ടുവാൻ കാനഡ ഗവണ്മെന്റ് തീരുമാനിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നത്.

സാമ്പത്തികവളർച്ചയും കുടിയേറ്റവും

2 .2 ശതമാനം തോതിൽ കഴിഞ്ഞ അഞ്ചുവർഷങ്ങളിൽ ശ്രദ്ധേയമായ വളർച്ചയാണ് കനേഡിയൻ സമ്പദ്വ്യവസ്ഥ നേടിയിരിക്കുന്നത്. എന്നാൽ വാർദ്ധക്യത്തിലേക്ക് കടക്കുന്ന കനേഡിയൻ ജനതയും കുറഞ്ഞ ജനനനിരക്കും ഈ സാമ്പത്തികവളർച്ചയെ ദോഷകരമായി ബാധിക്കുവാൻ സാധ്യതയുണ്ട്.

അടുത്ത രണ്ടു ദശാബ്ദങ്ങളിൽ പുതിയ കുടിയേറ്റക്കാരെ കാനഡ സ്വീകരിക്കുന്നില്ല എങ്കിൽ ഈ ആഭ്യന്തര ഉത്പാദനവളർച്ച കാലക്രമേണ പ്രതിവർഷം 1.3 ശതമാനം എന്ന നിരക്കിലേക്ക് കുറയും. അതെ സമയം അടുത്ത രണ്ടു ദശാബ്ദത്തിൽ കാനഡ പുതിയ കുടിയേറ്റക്കാരെ സ്വീകരിക്കുകയാണെങ്കിൽ വാർഷികവളർച്ച 1.9 എന്ന നിരക്കിൽ നിലനിർത്തുവാൻ സാധിക്കുമെന്നുമാത്രമല്ല, ശക്തമായ സാമ്പത്തികവളർച്ച നേടുവാനും സാധിക്കും.

വാർദ്ധക്യത്തിലേക്ക് കാലൂന്നിയ ജനത

ഈ അടുത്തുവന്ന റിപോർട്ടുകൾ പ്രകാരം കാനഡ കുടിയേറ്റക്കാർക്കുനേരെ വാതിലുകൾ കൊട്ടിയടക്കുകയും രാജ്യത്തെ ഒരു കുടിയേറ്റരഹിതമേഖലയാക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുന്ന പക്ഷം പെട്ടന്നുതന്നെ വാർദ്ധക്യം ബാധിച്ച ഒരു രാജ്യമായി കാനഡ മാറും. 2040 ആകുമ്പോഴേക്കും കാനഡ നിവാസികളിൽ 26.9 ശതമാനം പേരും 65 വയസ്സിനുമുകളിൽ പ്രായമുള്ളവരായിത്തീരും എന്നാണ് അനുമാനം. ഈ അവസ്ഥ ഒഴിവാക്കാനാവാത്ത പല പ്രത്യാഘാതങ്ങളും ഉണ്ടാക്കും. തൊഴിലാളികളുടെ എണ്ണം കുറയുകയും ഈ കുറവു നികത്തുവാൻ ഗവൺമെന്റിന് കൂടുതൽ നികുതി ചുമത്തേണ്ടി വരികയും ചെയ്യും. അങ്ങനെ ചെയ്തെങ്കിൽ മാത്രമേ സൗജന്യ ആരോഗ്യപരിരക്ഷ, മാതൃപരിരക്ഷ, മാതാപിതാക്കൾക്കുള്ള ആനുകൂല്യങ്ങൾ തുടങ്ങിയ ക്ഷേമപദ്ധതികൾ തുടരാൻ ഗവണ്മെന്റിനു സാധിക്കുകയുള്ളൂ.

2034-ഓടെ കാനഡയിലെ മരണനിരക്ക് ജനനനിരക്കിനെ മറികടക്കുമെന്നും അപ്പോൾ ജനസംഖ്യാവളർച്ചയും തൊഴിലാളിലഭ്യതയും ഉറപ്പാക്കുന്നതിൽ കുടിയേറ്റം ഒരു പ്രധാന പങ്കുവഹിക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുമെന്നാണ് കണക്കാക്കപ്പെടുന്നത്. കാനഡയെ സംബന്ധിച്ചിടത്തോളം സാമ്പത്തികവളർച്ചയെ ത്വരിതപ്പെടുത്തുകയും രാജ്യം ഇപ്പോൾ അഭിമുഖീകരിക്കുന്ന പ്രശ്നങ്ങളെ നേരിടാൻ സഹായിക്കുകയും ചെയ്യുന്ന ഒരു സുപ്രധാനഘടകമാണ് കുടിയേറ്റം. കനേഡിയൻ സമ്പദ്വ്യവസ്ഥയുടെ വളർച്ചയിൽ ഇപ്പോഴും ഒരു പ്രധാന പങ്കുവഹിക്കുവാൻ കുടിയേറ്റത്തിനുകഴിയും. ഭാഗ്യവശാൽ കനേഡിയൻ ഗവണ്മെന്റ് ഈ വസ്തുത മനസ്സിലാക്കുകയും കുടിയേറ്റക്കാരുടെ എണ്ണം വരും വർഷങ്ങളിൽ വർധിപ്പിക്കാൻ തീരുമാനിക്കുകയും ചെയ്തിരിക്കുന്നു. കാനഡയിൽ പോകാൻ ആഗ്രഹിക്കുന്ന അർഹതയുള്ള വ്യക്തിയാണ് നിങ്ങളെങ്കിൽ നിങ്ങൾക്കും ഈ സുവർണാവസരം ഉപയോഗിക്കാം.

നിങ്ങളുടെ അർഹത സൗജന്യമായി പരിശോധിക്കുവാൻ ഞങ്ങളുടെ വിദഗ്ധ ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥരുടെ സഹായം തേടാവുന്നതാണ്

How to sponsor your family members for Canada migration through Quebec Family Class?

Posted on 04/01/2019 by Venkat Karky Leave a Comment

A Canadian citizen or permanent resident residing in Quebec can sponsor a close relative to come to Canada as a permanent resident through the Quebec Family Class Sponsorship program. The first step in such a sponsorship process is the Canadian citizen or permanent resident applying to be a sponsor. But in order to be eligible to apply, the sponsor and the person to be sponsored must meet certain requirements.

The prospective sponsor must submit the application for sponsorship to the Government of Canada. If you are found eligible to be a sponsor, you can submit an undertaking application along with an application from the person to be sponsored for a Quebec Selection Certificate (CSQ) to the Quebec government. You must remember that, if you are planning to sponsor a person for permanent residence in Canada, you must be ready to support him/her financially when they arrive. You must also make sure that they will not have to seek financial assistance from the government at any point in time.

Quebec Family Class: Application process:

There are two different processes for sponsoring family members to Quebec. They are:

Sponsoring a spouse, partner or dependent child
Sponsoring other eligible relatives

Sponsoring a spouse, partner or dependent child:

In order to sponsor a spouse, partner or dependent child, you must be at least 18 years of age. You must prove that you have the financial ability to support your spouse, partner or dependent child when they become a permanent resident in Canada.

To sponsor a spouse, partner or dependent child:

You and the person to be sponsored must sign a sponsorship agreement. In the agreement, the sponsor must commit that they would provide financial support to the sponsored person, if necessary. At the same time, the sponsored person must commit that they would make every effort to support him/ herself.
You are supposed to financially support a spouse, common-law or conjugal partner for three years from the date they become a permanent resident
You will have to financially support a dependent child for 10 years or until the child turns 25

Sponsoring other eligible relatives:

For sponsoring other eligible relatives under the Quebec Family Class, you must:

Be a citizen or permanent resident of Canada
Be at least 18 years of age
Reside physically in Quebec
Meet minimum income requirements

‘Other eligible relatives’ means

parents
grandparents
brothers or sisters, nephews or nieces, granddaughters or grandsons who are orphaned, under 18 years of age and not married or in a common-law relationship
children under age 18 to be adopted in Canada

To sponsor your relative you and the person to be sponsored must sign a sponsorship agreement in which you commit that you would financially support them if necessary. The agreement will also state that the person to be sponsored will make all efforts to support themselves. However, dependent children below the age of 22 need not sign this agreement. Besides, Quebec residents must also sign an undertaking with the province- a contract to bind the sponsorship. The sponsor will have to promise that he/she would support the sponsored relative for a period of 3-10 years, from the date they become the permanent residents of Canada.

You cannot become a sponsor under Quebec Family Class if:

You have signed a sponsorship agreement in the past for another relative but failed to provide them with financial support
You have defaulted on a support order from the court, such as alimony or child support
You have received financial assistance from the Government for reasons other than disability
You were convicted of a violent criminal offence, offence against a relative or sexual offence. But factors such as the nature of the offence, how long ago it occurred or whether you were pardoned will also be taken into consideration
You have defaulted on an immigration loan
You have been declared bankrupt
You have previously sponsored relatives who later had to depend on the government for financial assistance

How Studying in Canada Could Help You Get a Canadian PR Visa?

Posted on 27/12/2018 by Venkat Karky Leave a Comment

A common misconception or misunderstanding that has been carried by individuals from all parts of the world is “How Studying in Canada Could Help You Get a Canadian PR Visa?” They are drawn to the conclusion without any further investigation or research that a student cannot obtain a Canadian PR after studying! Loosely speaking, yes, a student cannot obtain a Canadian PR Visa right after his/her studies. But technically speaking, there are immigration programs that would help you to obtain a Canadian PR after you complete your graduation in Canada. Before getting down to the immigration programs that could help you get a Canadian PR, let’s understand how a Canadian Degree could make you stand apart!

A Canadian Degree is internationally recognized and gives you an upper hand in cases of an interview.
Studying in one of the highly reputed Canadian Universities can help you gain wide exposure and be a part of the culturally diverse environment.
A Canadian degree could considerably increase your CRS points when immigrating under the Express Entry System.
And most importantly, a Canadian Degree stands as the base foundation for you to obtain a Post-Graduate Work Permit Visa.
Obtaining a Canadian Degree will help the government understand you are a potential candidate when you apply for the immigration process.

Below mentioned are the procedures which you should follow to obtain a Canadian PR after completing your studies in Canada.

Obtain Post-Graduate Work Permit Visa:

This is the first and the foremost step you should be doing which serves as the pathway for you to obtain a Canadian Permanent Resident Visa. The Canadian Post Graduate Work Permit Visa is for students who have studied in a designated Canadian Institution and willing to stay in Canada and work after their graduation. Before you apply for a Post Graduate Work Permit Visa, here are some important things you should know:

You should be 18 years or older when you apply for a PGWP Visa.
Your study program in Canada should be at least a minimum of eight months.
The duration of your PGWP visa will be based on the duration of your course.
You should be having a valid study permit when you apply for the work permit visa.

There are certain other requirements you have to meet when you apply for a PGWP Visa. A post-graduate work permit visa can be applied in two ways. The first method is applying online the second method is applying via the paper format. Try going for the online method where the processing time is quite faster (69 days) when compared to the paper method (111 days). You can start working in Canada full-time until your decision is made on your work permit Visa.

Once you have obtained your post-graduate work permit visa (which is the first step to obtain a Canadian PR), you should be prepared for the next step.

Immigrating under the Canadian Experience Class:

The Canadian Experience Class is one of the three streams under the Canadian Experience Class which allows individuals with a minimum of one-year Canadian work experience in Canada to apply for a Canadian Permanent Resident Visa. Below mentioned is a short outline of how you should work things out under the Canadian Experience Class System:

Obtain a Canadian Work Permit:

Not to worry because you already have the Post-Graduate Work Permit Visa in your hand. You might come up with the question of whether you will be able to apply for Canadian Experience Class while you still have your PGWP visa in hand. The answer is, yes you can!

Gain a Year of Canadian Work Experience:

This is the primary requirement to immigrate under the Canadian Experience Class Program. Immigrating under the Canadian Experience Class Program requires you to have a minimum of one -year work experience under the NOC Coda O, A or B. Since you have a Canadian Degree in your hand finding a job in your core are wouldn’t be that difficult.

Create an Express Entry Profile:

Once you have ensured that you meet all the requirements criteria, create an Express Entry Profile and submit all your details with the required documentation and increase your profile and ranking under the CRS by every possible means.

Receive an Invitation to Apply:

This is where your hard work and patience pays off. Once when you receive an Invitation to Apply from the Canadian Government, you then get to apply for the Canadian Permanent Residence, thereby allowing you to finally get what you wanted to! Followed is the medical check, police clearance certificate which is done at complete ease!

You should understand that obtaining a Canadian PR Visa is not an easy process and it requires patience and perfect understanding. It is now clear that studying in Canada could actually help you gain a better standard of living and a Canadian Permanent Resident Visa provided you follow the right immigration methods & procedures.

Why Canada is Planning to Take Nearly One Million Immigrants Within the Next Three Years?

Posted on 08/12/2018 by Venkat Karky Leave a Comment

Canada is one of the countries that has shown great development strides within a short span of time. Right from industries to top ranking universities, Canada has everything at the highest standards that an individual would seek in order to lead a better standard of living. In fact, it would be perfectly appropriate to mention here that Canada’s economy is the 10^th largest economy in the world and is surging in the right direction every passing day.

The economic growth of a country is tightly bound to several factors which helps in the positive outcome and favored growth results. Likewise, the Canadian economic growth depends on a number of factors and one important factor that plays a predominant role is “Immigration” to which the Canadian government gives great importance.

Stats & reports say that an approximate of one in five people is an immigrant in Canada and they account to an approximate of 21.5% of the total Canadian population. The Canadian government is also taking every possible measure to welcome immigrants and has planned to increase immigration intake to almost one million within the next three years. The question as to “Why Canada is showing a keen interest on immigration?” has been much debated and searched and which is why we bring to you three solid reasons stating why Canada needs Immigrants!

Increasing Skilled Labour Shortages: –

A skilled workforce is something that could make or break the country’s economy. A country with the right amount of skilled labor will result in high economic growth eventually leading to a better standard of living for the country’s residents. As of 13^th March 2018, there are an approximate of 400,000 jobs spread across Canada that needs to be filled in. With the labor shortage intensifying in every single Canadian province, the government has planned to increase the number of immigrants, who could contribute to the positive growth of the economy and meet the increasing labor shortages.

The Economic Growth & Immigration: –

The Canadian economy has witnessed a remarkable growth by 2.2 percent annually over the past five years. This positive economic growth will face a whiplash due to the aging Canadian population & low birth rate.

Without any new immigrant intake activities for the next two decades, this positive GDP growth percentage will gradually decrease to 1.3 percent annually. On the other hand, keeping the immigration intake in place for the next two decades will help the annual growth be at 1.9 percent accompanied with a strong economic growth.

The Aging Population Factor: –

Recent reports state that if the Canadian government shuts its doors towards immigrants and makes it an immigration free zone, the remaining Canadian population would age at an increasing pace. Consequently, by the year 2040, 26.9 percent of the Canadian population would be aged more than 65. This comes along with inevitable side effects. There would be a significant decrease in the Canadian workforce and in order to compensate for the shrinking labor force, the Canadian government will have to increase taxes to continue providing social services such as healthcare, maternity & parental benefits and more.,

By the year 2034, it is predicted that the number of death rates in Canada will exceed the number of births and immigration will then be playing a major role in keeping up the population & the labor force of the country. As for Canada, immigration is a key factor that helps drive the economy towards the positive direction and overcome the hurdles it is currently facing, and immigration will forever play a positive role in the growth of the Canadian economy. It is fortunate that the Canadian government has understood this and has planned to increase immigration intake for the upcoming years. If you are a potential candidate who has been looking forward to migrating to Canada, you can make use of the golden opportunity and find possible ways to migrate!

What newcomers need to know about Canadian banking system?

Posted on 20/10/201811/03/2024 by Venkat Karky 2 Comments

If you are planning to immigrate to Canada, you must be wondering how to open a bank account and do banking in the new country. Canada has a national system of banking with five large banks having branches across the country and many small and regional banks. The banking system in Canada is highly competitive and consumers have many options to choose from. Moreover, Canadian banks maintain a high level of security, meaning the money deposited in a Canadian bank will be safe and the customers need not have to worry about it.

Now here are a few things you need to know about the Canadian banking system as a newcomer:

1. Opening a bank account:

In Canada, anybody can open a bank account if they meet the identification requirements specified in the Access to Basic Banking Services Regulations under the Bank Act. You can open a bank account even if you don’t have a job, don’t have money to put in the account or have been bankrupt.

For identification purpose, you may produce documents including:

a Canadian driver’s license
a Certificate of Canadian Citizenship
a Certification of Naturalization
a Permanent Resident card or Citizenship and Immigration Canada Form IMM 1000 or IMM 1442.

2. Choosing the type of account

The Canadian banks, which are more than 20 in number, offer around a 100 types of consumer bank account packages to choose. Besides, the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada has a simple, free, online tool that helps the customers compare different types of accounts. There are certain packages that are specifically meant for newcomers in Canada. You can choose an account type that is competitive, affordable and suits your needs best.

3. Security for your deposit is guaranteed

All Canadian banks that take retail deposits are members of the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (CDIC). The banks in Canada are regulated and managed well. Even if a bank fails, which is highly unlikely in Canada, the savings and deposits of the customers will remain protected.

4. Sending money to home country

Some newcomers may have to send money to their family members or friends in other countries. Banks charge a fee for these transactions called remittances. Banks in Canada offer remittance services in a number of currencies. If the person you are sending money to does not have a bank account, you can choose services like Western Union, MoneyGram etc.

5. Help to start a business

Banks in Canada offer a range of services for small business owners. These include providing finance, information, advice, lines of credit, overdraft protection, telephone banking, online banking, venture loans, and payroll and cash management services. Banks also conduct seminars and workshops for small business owners and aspiring business people to help them start or manage their business better.

Posted on 13/10/201809/03/2024 by Venkat Karky Leave a Comment

Canada is a place that offers vast opportunities for nurses to thrive in their career while enjoying financial gains and high standards of living. Nurses have a wide variety of specialties for training and to gain experience in Canada. But becoming a recognized nurse in Canada involves a few steps, but it’s worth the effort considering the attractive perks enjoyed by nurses in Canada. Now let’s explore why Canada is the best place to work for a nursing professional.

1. Rising demand for nurses:

Canada has an aging population, which means the demand for nurses will keep rising in the future. Canadian Nursing Association predicts that there will be a shortage of around 60000 registered nurses in 2022. By 2050, nearly one-third of the Canadian population will be over the age of 60. In other words, the demand for healthcare services will only rise. It means opportunities for nurses will not fall short in the near future.

2. High salary:

A registered nurse in Canada earns an average monthly salary of $72,800 per year. The salary range has also witnessed an incredible growth over the past few years. For example, between 2007 and 2013, the growth was at a range of more than 15 percent. At entry level, nurses can earn an average of $60,000 per year and experienced nurses can earn up to $80,000 every year.

3. Flexible work schedules:

A registered nurse in Canada gets enough off-days. They also get compensated for their overtime work, besides paid annual off-days. It means, despite a hectic schedule, nurses get enough time to relax. Immigrant nurses can also use their annual off-days to visit their home country.

4. Childcare facilities in hospitals:

Mostly, nurses have to work at odd hours and even on weekends and holidays. So taking care of their children will be the greatest concern for them. Canada is a country that gives the highest priority to family welfare. In order to help the nurses take care of their children while they are working, many hospitals and institutions have arranged childcare facilities.

5. Pension and retirement:

Canada has no mandatory retirement age in Canada, so nurses can keep working as long as they can. The pension schemes for nurses vary from one region to another and one institution to another. However, the longer a nurse works and contributes to the pension plan, the bigger will be the benefits.
