Canada welcomes more than 200,000 international students to the country each year. The students can receive work permit while on student visa which allows them to work and study at the same time.
Under this, an individual can sponsor his/her family if they are at least 18 years old and a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident of Canada or a person registered in Canada as an Indian under the Canadian Indian Act.
Immigrants are required to have the skills, education and work experience to contribute to the economy of a particular province or territory, and wish to live there.
The program provides entrepreneurs, investors and self-employed people to come to Canada for work purpose and might give them the opportunities to become a permanent resident.
