Immigration to Canada From Saudi Arabia

Are You Looking to migrate to Canada from Saudi Arabia?

Saudi Arabia is one of the leading countries that offer thousands of immigrants, international students, and temporary workers to Canada.

Most of them enjoy high living standards in Saudi Arabia but certain factors like Universal Health Care, better employments, top-notch education, freedom of religion, and democracy in Canada compel them to move permanently.

Canada offers hundreds of immigration programs for candidates residing in Canada for at least three years.

How many Programs Canada have for Permanent Residence?

1. Express Level Entry:

Express level entry is the main program through which skilled immigrants from Saudi Arabia get a PR in Canada. It has three sub-programs: Foreign Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), the Foreign Skilled Trades Program (FSTP), and the Canadian Experience Class (CEC).

You must meet the requirements of any of these programs to get eligible for PR through express entry.

FSWP is the quickest way to achieve a PR if you have never lived in Canada before. Candidates are awarded points on the basis of age, education, language skills, and work experience. The candidates with the highest scores are invited to apply for permanent residence. You must have a year of work experience and a basic language proficiency proof in English or French to get eligible for Canadian PR.

FSTP is an exciting pathway for skilled workers or traders to get a Canadian permanent residence provided they’ve two years of work experience, a valid job offer from an employer in Canada, and a certificate of qualification to obtain PR.

CEC is an excellent pathway for international students and temporary workers to obtain permanent residence. You must have a year of professional, technical, or part-time work experience to obtain the benefits under this program.

Despite the pandemic situation, Canada has decided to ramp up the applications for permanent residence to attract more skilled candidates throughout the world.

2. Provincial Nominee Program (PNP):

This is another major pathway for skilled workers to obtain permanent residences in the provinces of Canada. The PNP programs provide opportunities for Saudi immigrants to settle in the provinces of Canada to fulfill their economic desires. It is the second-largest pathway after Express Entry to obtain PR in Canada.

Getting nominated by provinces through this program ensures an extra 600 points for the Express Entry, making it even easier to acquire a permanent residence. If the provinces are interested in your profile, they might invite you to apply through provincial nominations.

You need to apply for at least one immigration stream that is aligned with both Express Entry and PNP programs. This program is not valid for Northern Canadian provinces like Quebec and Nunavut.

Other programs include the Family reunification program, Business investor and entrepreneur programs, refugee programs under humanitarian and compassionate grounds, and Quebec immigration program.
