Canada PR: Foreign students are allowed to settle permanently in Canada to contribute to the country’s economy. Indian students can also settle here.

Indian students studying in Canada wish to have the opportunity to stay here permanently (PR). For this reason, they spend lakhs of rupees and go to countries like Canada to get a degree. The good thing is that foreign students can also acquire Permanent Residency (PR) in Canada. So they have to fulfill certain conditions. Let’s know the 5 ways through which any student can get PR in Canada.

(1) Enrollment in the Co-op Program

It is difficult for foreign students to break into Canada’s job market. Through the Co-op Program, one can easily enter the job market and get a job as soon as they graduate. In this program there is an opportunity to work along with studies. If a student performs well during the co-op placement, the company also gives him a job. Having Canadian work experience can get PR early under Canadian Experience Class (CEC) of Express Entry, as Canadian work experience increases CRS points.

(2) Gain work experience

If a student has overseas work experience, he/she gets 50 additional CRS points. It is very important to get PR. The good thing is that overseas work experience can be gained even while being a full-time student. You can go to your home country and work in a company during your vacation or you can get this experience through remote work.

(3) Take courses for in-demand jobs

Students should study those courses which can lead to the most in-demand jobs after completion. Healthcare, Social Service, Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths, Agriculture and Education are the sectors where workers are most needed. If you study a course with a degree that can get you a job in one of these fields, your chances of PR increase. PR is given to those doing certain jobs under the Special Occupation Category of Express Entry.

(4) Networking with Alumni

Alumni networking is very beneficial for starting a career in Canada. Alumni can give you good advice from their experience and also give referrals of some companies where jobs are needed. Networking in Canada is easy to find a job and sometimes leads to jobs that are not normally available.

(5) Study of the French language

Although this route is not for every student, anyone who is interested in the French language can learn it. Students who know the French language can get PR through several Economic Immigration Programs. If someone knows intermediate level French then he can get 50 extra CRS points. In Canada’s Quebec Province, people with knowledge of the French language are mostly preferred in PR. You can learn French even after completing your degree to increase your chances of PR.
