Canadian Citzenship
Advantages of Canadian Citizenship
There are numerous advantages to holding Canadian citizenship. A Canadian citizen has benefits that are not available to permanent residents, such as: access to restricted jobs; the right to vote; ability to travel with a Canadian passport; and your children will be Canadian. Canadian citizens also have the security of holding a status that is not easy to lose or surrender.
Steps to become a Canadian citizen:
- Apply for citizenship
- Citizenship test and interview
- Oath of citizenship and ceremony
Requirements
Therefore, to be eligible to become a Canadian citizen, you must:
- be a permanent resident
- have lived in Canada for 3 out of the last 5 years
- have filed your taxes, if you need to
- show how well you know Canada
- prove your language skills

LMIA
A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a document that an employer in Canada may need to get before hiring a foreign worker.
A positive LMIA will show that there is a need for a foreign worker to fill the job. It will also show that no Canadian worker or permanent resident is available to do the job. A positive LMIA is sometimes called a confirmation letter.
If the employer needs an LMIA, they must apply for one.
Once an employer gets the LMIA, the worker can apply for a work permit.
To apply for a work permit, a worker needs
- a job offer letter
- a contract
- a copy of the LMIA, and
- the LMIA number
