Applying for Canadian Permanent Residency from India is a multi-step process primarily managed online. Indian applicants must first ensure they qualify under programs like the Federal Skilled Worker Program. Critical requirements are a valid language test score (IELTS), an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA), and skilled work experience documentation. After submitting an Express Entry profile and receiving an ITA, a full application with police clearances and medical exams must be filed. This grants the permanent resident visa, enabling lifelong residency in Canada.
