22、e best country to live in. The land of new hopes and opportunities attracts people worldwide.(2) Very few people really understand or know anything about the process of immigration application. First of all a potential immigrant needs to know something about the rules and regulations. The Canadian G

23、overnment has designed a point system to assess potential independent immigrants. Emphasis is placed on education, practical training, experience and the likelihood of successful settlement in Canada. This means that people with a bachelor degree of some kind and advanced technical or other skills t

24、hat are in demand in Canada are more likely to be accepted. The Government also adds weight to an application if the individual is fluent in Canadas official languages, English and French. Therefore someone with a good command of either English or French will have a better chance. Another way to imm

25、igrate to Canada is via the immigrant investor program. This provides an opportunity for experienced business persons to immigrate to Canada after making a substantial investment in a provincial government-administered venture capital fund.( 3 ) If you think you fulfill all the criteria you can easi

26、ly apply for immigration by yourself. The Canadian Government clearly states: “Any one can apply without the help of a third party”.

28、uch services. What the least competent and reliable professionals do is simply fill out forms and send them to the Canadian Embassy with the required fees and documents! Some individuals (who can be referred to as “unscrupulous agents”) may fail to send in the correct documents, delay the clients ap

29、plication delivery, talk an unqualified candidate into buying their services despite the high possibility that the visa application will be refused or even suggest their clients supply fraudulent documents that are often discovered by the Canadian Embassy. Conversely, a highly qualified and reliable

30、 professional service justifies its costs for the comprehensive services it provides. A professional and reliable immigration firm should provide these services for its clients:(5) Firstly, an intending immigrant must first be well aware of his chances of success. A substantial amount of necessary p

31、ayment and the potential impact on an applicants life can be avoided. A highly experienced immigration professional is capable of assessing a clients chances of success with an extremely high degree of certainty. In the case of a most unfavorable application, he discourages the clients application.(6) Secondly, depending on an effective interpretation of the selection rules as well as accumulated experiences, an experienced immigration profess
