Please ensure that when sending any of this information, that it is clearly marked with your file number and note that it is not necessary to inform us of changes in your family composition until we send you the document request.
While your application is in process, we strongly recommend that you begin to prepare yourself for immigration to Canada. You should learn about living and working in Canada so you can decide where to live and prepare yourself and your family for life in Canada.
You should be aware that Canada has two official languages, English and French. Depending on where you want to live in Canada, you will need excellent speaking, reading and writing skills in one of these languages. If you do not have strong English or French skills, we suggest that you study the language before coming to Canada and learn the vocabulary of your profession or trade. It is important to bear in mind that you will be competing against many native speakers of English and French for any available jobs.
You should also note that just prior to assessment the visa office will require the results of a third party language test, or other written evidence of your language ability. It is recommended that you undertake an authorized language examination in order to provide the visa officer with definitive, verifiable results. Applicants who submit authorized language test results are likely be processed more quickly than those that rely on a written submission regarding language ability. This is because authorized test results are independent and certifiable. In either case, the visa officer will make a decision based on the language documentation you submit. As such, you welanguage ability before you are required to submit evidence of your abilities. Information on the IELTS test in English can be found at www.britishcouncil.orq. Information on the French language test, Test devaluation de François (TEF) is available at http://www.fda.ccip.fr.
Please note that if you have already taken an approved language test the result will remain valid as long as the test was taken within 12 months of the acceptance of your application by the Embassy. You may wish to retake the test when documents are requested and provide an updated result to demonstrate improved abilities.
Also note that the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act does not allow for a face-to-face interview in order to have language abilities assessed.
Finding work is a challenging process for Canadians and for immigrants. It is essential that you prepare to work in Canada before you move. Even if you have many years of work experience in your home country, you may not be able to work in your trade or profession in Canada. There are many things you can do in your home country to prepare for working in Canada and make your job search easier.
One of your first steps should be to begin researching potential employment in Canada; most occupations in Canada are not regulated. For those occupations, the employer is responsible for assessing and recognizing your qualifications.
However, some occupations are regulated and do not permit persons to practice without a license. To obtain a license to practice a regulated occupation, you must go through an assessment and an acceptance of your education and professional qualifications by a regulatory body. This assessment will compare your training, education and experience to Canadian standards. The assessment will also help determine whether further training and evaluation may be needed before you acquire a license to practice your occupation in Canada.
For more information, we encourage you to visit the Going to Canada Internet site at www.directioncanada.gc.ca where you will find important information about living and working in Canada. On this site, you will also find the “Working in Canada Tool” which will tell you what the current prospects are for your occupation across Canada, It offers information on essential skills, job descriptions, work conditions and opportunities. It will also tell you whether your occupation is a regulated profession in Canada,
We trust that this information is helpful. Thank you for your interest in Canada.
Regards,
Visa and Immigration Section
Canadian Embassy, Beijing
