Immigration To Canada Requirements
Q: I have just finished my degree in Nursing and I would like to apply as an immigrant in Canada. I also have a brother who is a permanent Canadian resident. Which is the best route for me to take? Should I apply as a skilled worker? Or can my brother sponsor me?
A: In your situation, there are two ways by which you can immigrate to Canada. But, both ways do not give a guarantee. If you’re planning to apply as a skilled worker, you will need to have at least one year of experience in your field (as a nurse) for you to qualify – and that seems unlikely considering the fact that you have just finished your degree. When it comes to sponsorship by your brother, there are certain limitations when it comes to sponsoring siblings. For one, the sibling to be sponsored (you) should be 18 years of age or below – which is, again, unlikely in your case, considering that you have already finished your degree. You can check other requirements for sibling sponsorship to determine whether you will qualify or not.
Sponsor Spouse To Canada
Q: I have a Canadian husband, and both of us are living in the Philippines. My husband already wants to sponsor me to be a Canadian citizen, but he doesn’t want to go to Canada and leave me here in order to file the application. Can he file the sponsorship application while he is here in the Philippines? Or, can I go with him to Canada? Is it possible for me to be sponsored to Canada while I am already inside the country?
A: First and foremost, yes – it’s possible for your husband to sponsor you even if he is outside of Canada. The other option, both of you coming to Canada for the sponsorship, is also possible as long as you have a visitor visa. Remember, though, that the sponsorship process will take longer if the one being sponsored is already inside the country, around double the length of time compared to the process involved when sponsoring someone who is outside of Canada.

Thank you for the attention.

My brother is on social assistance and he is married to an American woman. His wife currently lives with my brother in Canada and would like to immigrate.
How can she immigrate to Canada, while her Canadian husband is on social assistance? What options do they have? Is there someone they can speak with directly about this issue?
