Your Global Eligibility Checklist

Navigating the Canada immigration process can be complex. Whether you are applying from Pakistan, India, the UAE, or anywhere else globally, understanding the latest Canada visa requirements is the first step toward a successful application. As Licensed RCIC consultants, FL Immigration provides professional guidance to ensure your documentation meets the strict standards of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

Core Eligibility Requirements for 2025

To be eligible for a Canadian visa or permanent residency, most global applicants must meet these foundational criteria:

• Valid Travel Document: You must have a valid passport with at least 6 months of validity remaining.

• Proof of Financial Support: You must demonstrate that you have sufficient funds to support yourself and your family during your stay. This typically requires 4–6 months of bank statements.

• Intent to Return: For temporary visas (Visitor or Study), you must convince an officer that you have strong ties to your home country—such as a job, property, or family—that will ensure you leave Canada at the end of your stay.

• Criminal & Medical Admissibility: Applicants must be in good health and have no criminal record. Police clearance certificates are often required for any country where you have lived for more than six months.

Express Entry & Permanent Residency (PR) Requirements

For those seeking to move to Canada permanently, the Express Entry system remains the primary pathway. Key requirements include:

• Language Proficiency: Valid results from approved tests like IELTS (English) or PTE Core.

• Education Assessment: A completed Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) for any degrees obtained outside of Canada.

• Skilled Work Experience: At least one year of continuous, paid work experience in a professional or technical field (NOC TEER 0, 1, 2, or 3).
