Common Misconceptions About Canadian Immigration
Many think a temporary visa (work or study permit) automatically leads to permanent residency. Not true!
Temporary immigration is just that — temporary. It doesn’t guarantee a permanent spot in Canada.
Permanent residency requires a separate application process, eligibility criteria, and often takes time.
Understanding the difference between temporary and permanent immigration is key to planning your future in Canada the right way.
Don’t assume — get informed.
