I know it won’t be easy but, Toronto has a lot of resources for immigrants and even undocumented immigrants. I worked for a shelter and although it was the only one that takes undocumented families, you learn there are resources out there. \nIt’s about aligning yourself with the right community support Center, finding the people who will fight for you. There are so many people here who welcome and want to help all types of immigrants. No matter your background.\nThe people who work helping these communities they are ruthless in their fight for citizenship, or at least finding you a job and home, they will guide you through the system. Social workers, ones in community resource centres, not government centres, will be your best friend. They know where the red tape is and the resources available to you. \nYou could even go to a specific shelter to t all out your options and where you could go to get help.\nI understand this is not ideal. \nBut, if you want to be here, your best friends are non-profits, finding a center that aligns with your story, your background, because they will fight for you. We have people here from every country and resource centres geared towards your own language, religion etc.\nAnother big way to set yourself up for success. Churches, rich churches to be specific. \nMy mom works in a very rich church and it helps them feel better about themselves helping people, you could be nice enough to alleviate their guilt through their wallets, and connections. Under the table work, shelter, space for your family, set you up, they might even have the lawyers you need pro Bono in those rich churches. Church shopping, do not be above it if you don’t have resources. You don’t just get help, you build a community and support system through a common bond, the church. \nI know these aren’t revolutionary tips, but without specifics of your background it’s hard (for me specifically) to give specific advice online as to what services could be provided for you.\nIt’s kind of like a doctors appointment. You need background info to diagnose the resources for you and how to access that help.

Immigration to Canada is a bit difficult challenge to under take most especially Application of Visa.The best thing to do is to get an authorized agent to help you out in any area including the IELTS exam and immigration permit.\nWell Addison Hazel is an Authorized agent working at the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada\n(IRCC). With her help I successfully immigrated to Canada.Meet her now if you wish to have a successful trip to Canada.

CHINESE PEOPLE CHEAT THE SYSTEM THEY WILL EVEN PAY TO MARRY YOU TO GET CITIZENSHIP. TRUTH. WHAT EVER IT TAKES .

But when the real and qualified immigrants apply for citizenship its either denied or it takes forever to be processed.

Wow get charged $900,000 when I’m taking in $10,000,000, gee where do I sign. Canada sadly has become such a disappointment. Slap on the hand punishments plus I get to keep my citizenship.

Money can do anything !! When people work hard and take years to their citizenship, speechless

And people want to sit here and talk about the USA There’s borders everywhere and there’s laws no matter who you are if I a American go to Canada And try to seek citizenship I would have to go through the same deal this guy would so all you people out here acting like other countries are just taking people know they runoff of laws that they have to abide by too

The must be desperate paying for Canadian citizenship? I wouldn't take it even if they paid me............

Hi Igor, \nI hope you're doing well. I'm a great fan of yours.\nI have a few inquiries regarding AIPP.\n \n1. Is there any advantage if anyone applying to AIPP and Express Entry together? \n\n2. If anyone accepted for AIPP, is it mandatory for that person to stay in the Atlantic province for the rest of the life? \n\n3. Are employers really really interested to recruit foreign skilled worker for the sake of real shortage of skills in the Atlantic zones? \n\n4. It's said that it will take 6 months to get a PR through AIPP. And after that, I can only roam Canada but not work anywhere else till my employer endorse NOC for me. Well, I'm okay with it. But in the long term, for example, after getting Canadian citizenship(staying 1095 days from 1825 days), can I move to any other preferred place/s and work anywhere I want based on my relevant skill set? \n\nThanks in advance

If someone doing such things why don't your governments throw them out of the country and take back the citizenship? WHY???? I DO NOT UNDERSTAND!!!!! I DON'T! Could anyone explain to me????

We should all go take American citizenship then go throw theillegal border cross back into Canada and get that golden ticket healthcare ?????

I’m so sorry for all of you precious people of Canada! You’re our neighbors (the state of Tennessee USA here) and we see you’re having to put up with everything the Democrats want to do to us if they come into power this November. (The only way they could do that is voter fraud, which is exactly what happened in what we call the mid-term elections in November 2018, when some House of Representatives and Senate seats come open in the two-year cycle halfway thru the Presidential elections - that’s how they won the House back) \n\nThat poor displaced family, though. Bless them; officials need to get to the bottom of where they’ve been, where they actually have citizenship, and attend to them properly and GET CANADIANS HOME! President Trump needs to go up there and jerk a knot in Mr. Trudeau’s rear end. (That’s an old country Southern saying; don’t overthink it please!?? We finally have a President who may be a little bristly, but he loves America and Americans and he is working hard for us!)\n\nBut seriously, wish you much success and although I can’t monetarily, our greatest weapon is prayer and my armor is on (Ephesians 6)!!! Keean, you’ve stepped up to the plate because you love Canada and want to do what’s right by her! You’re doing a wonderful job - “absolutely fantastic” as my YouTube friend Mentour pilot would say. So we hope the situation gets resolved quickly, because this virus is taking its toll on everyone in more ways than one, and in ways we’ve not even seen yet and have no way to predict. Keep looking up though! And make sure you belong to Jesus Christ . Amen!

they take advantage of freedom of religion to impose and thrust their will on others. the whole world should ban giving citizenship to muslim immigrants if their parent country doesn't give the same rights to others. for example Arabs shouldn't be given those rights in america which americans don't get in arab countries. it's called principle of reciprocity.

Sh movement by Muslims in western world are compliance with All Queda leadership Osman Bin Laden who was killed by American special forces who wanted America to adopt Sharia laws. It was and is a signal for rest of world to take proactive erasures and give no asylum or no citizenship for 10 years after grant of asylum with valid documents, iD and eco of background.

No matter how long you live in China you can never get a citizenship Chinese people will come to your country and want to take all can you do this in China Hall no

But how comes Canadians are giving citizenship to foreign nationals who doesn't even speak the language?? I live in Europe, I speak 4 languages, yet I'm an illegal immigrant ? Canada, please take me! ?

It pains me to see so many people--not just in Chinese Canadian community, but throughout all ethnicities and demographics--take Canadian citizenship for granted. Being a Canadian citizen, having the right to exercise responsibilities that come with this citizenship, are a privilege. I look forward to the system becoming better at recognizing applicants who understand and want to contribute rather than to leech off and take advantage.

I am not buying this story. This is fake or there is something missing. Why did he leave the US. Illegal immigrant maybe. Never file for citizenship? He had 15k and just leaves where ever he was able to save 15k. He sneaks into another country and expects our sympathy because he drug his family along. HBO is heavy leftist. I am going to take my family sneak into someones yard throw up a tent and act all pitiful and see if they let me stay. Morale of the story don't do stupid shit.

there are dozens of flaws in Canada's immigration system. I am surprised to see that a person who has not spent a single minute in Canada enters the country as a permanent resident . has not paid a single dollar in taxes enters as a permanent resident. has not played his part in Canada's society and doesn't know fuck about Canada enters as a permanent resident of Canada. it does not surprise me to see people commenting about residents living in Canada do not speak English. \n \nI will give an example of the UK here which is far more developed than Canada and have very high standards. first of all, no one can enter the UK as a permanent resident of the UK. even if their partner is British, they will still come to the UK on a visa. depending on how much their British partner earns, it will take 5 to 10 years for them to settle in the UK, provided they pass the residency test in the UK(which Canada does not ask for whether you are in Canada applying for a PNP or PR or you come directly from another part of the world). a person who gets in the UK as a student spends minimum 7 years, if he is not married to a British /EU national to get a PR, most spend 10 for a UK PR(known as ILR in the UK) provided they pass the test for English and life in the UK (citizenship test). in return, the UK offers to its residents what no other nation offers. canada is giving away residencies as if its a leaflet. it's easier to get a Canadian residency than it is to extend a skilled visa in the UK. I have lived in Canada and felt that standard of living in canada is not very high as compared to the UK. so if Canada offers easy residency to people, it is only because they also know they are not giving away something precious :)

Are they not proud Chinese citizens oh... I get it now, they makev ONLY take Canadians citizenship so they can get taxpayer assistance for low wage workers. While in truth they're running a business or living without need for being daily employed this is totally outrageous... how is the average person to ever prosper or accumulated anything by working hard and the rich steal every sheckel and short the rules to take every inch...

If he helped cheated on other's immigration proceedings, he must have cheated on his. Just look into his past immigration application, then Canada can take away his citizenship. Also, you should be able to seize all his asset because they are the proceeds of his crimes.

They came to Canada to invest in the housing market. Many owners of houses and condos in Toronto/Richmond Hill and other areas live in China and pay managers to rent their property and take care of the money for them. China requested Canada to hand over Chinese citizens who took illegal sums of Chinese funds out of China but Canada refused due to the harsh Chinese sentences for that crime. Wealthy Chinese are laundering Billions of funds in the Canadian housing market and other investments. Although there are many other reasons for the Canadian housing bubble the fact remains that many young people and families residing in Canada can’t afford the inflated housing prices. Many Chinese come to Canada for their holidays, and one reason I know when they arrive is because my doctor is Chinese and every spring the office is packed with Chinese people who come to get their annual free check up, they all have Canadian citizenship and health cards too.

theres a difference between illegal immigrants and immigrants. Just because America doesnt want illegal immigrants doesnt mean theyre against immigrants. you can come to this country and any other country and try to apply for citizenship but to sneak in and all of that is not the way to go. Theres people who ACTUALLY need to seek asylum but instead you got people like him taking up space. smh

why not just make your stay here legal? stop hiding, pay taxes, gain rights, live in a house and get a job. if youve been hiding in a church for 15 years. youre not doing your family any favors. just do what it takes to become legal. i know its harder said then done these days but its gotta be better then hiding in a church basement for 15 years. plus you need rights, you need to be able to call the police when theres an emergency with out fear of deportation. come on! one time i hit an illegal with my car. destroyed the back end. i felt so bad! i have great insurance and wanted to take care of their car, and make sure they got checked out at a hospital but they refused cause they didnt want to get in trouble. their car never got fixed.... even though I wanted to fix it! i mean come on people supporting illegal imagrants are puting them in danger. they need to be given a path to legal citizenship and stopped from entering with out doing so.

Give dem there sharia law let dem live with it & take back their Canadian rights & divide them from Canadian law abiding non Muslim citizens so they can not enjoy & benefit from the country welfare and opportunity they will only have the right to citizenship

So you lived in two countries were English is needed for over 10 years, still didn't get a citizenship nor speaks English..shows that these people do not want to fit in sort of speak. They want to take and take. They do not want to better themselves.

We have a thing called a work Visa(Green Card). While on this Visa you apply for Citizenship. It takes time and it takes money. Thats is the way it is.

First of all you thought you guys could bring your family illegally didn't work then you got your wife pregnant for the baby to be born in the US for citizenship not working now they have the children separated from the parent give the children to the parents take the parents and the children back to where they come from and start to rebuild your country

You fled the richest nation in the world, for Canada\n What did you expect? \nCanada takes refugees from war zones not from NYY.. Canada doesn't just hand out money. Especially to people who think they can jump our border and our immigration process. There are plenty of people who spent a lot of time and work to earn their citizenship legally. How is it fair to anyone but you lol. Break the law pay the time. Don't come here without even spending a few hours looking into at least our laws ! Duh!

The silent killer. Come to Canada and try to dictate Sharia law to us. U took an oath to uphold Canadian law when u became a Canadian citizen. U r now espousing treasonous rhetoric. Revoke their citizenship and kick them out en masse. Take this country back!

Islam is the problem, It does not separate a fascist ideology style of belief from the way it governs its laws. It oppress woman and teaches Muslim men to be violent against all non believers. This is Why Muslims should not be allowed citizenship in any western world because they openly state they will not assimilate and the day will come when they will take over the world with Sharia law.
