The TR to PR path is never simple. This path is determined by different immigration programs, each with their own standards, processes, and requirements. Understanding the different programs from TR to PR is extremely important, as it will not only help you decide which path is best for your situation but will also greatly increase your chances of success.

Express Entry is a system used by the Canadian government to manage applications for Canadian permanent residency. Express Entry uses a point-based system, the CRS, to rank candidates’ profiles. The system manages three main programs:

Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSW);
Federal Skilled Trades Program (FST); and
Canadian Experience Class (CEC)

Applying to Express Entry is a two-step procedure. The first step is to submit your profile with the required documents. Required documents usually consist of language test results, educational credentials and passport or travel documentation.

After you submit a profile and receive an invitation to apply for Canadian permanent residence, you can submit your complete application for the IRCC to review.

The PNP program, on the other hand allows Canadian provinces and territories to nominate individuals who wish to immigrate to Canada and who are interested in settling in a particular province:

Each PNP has its criteria, often targeting specific skills or job markets in the province.
Great option for those who have a strong tie to a particular province or a specific job offer.

Beside all of the programs mentioned above there are still more options for the with work permit to get their PR:

Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP):

Designed for skilled workers and international graduates who want to live in one of Canada’s Atlantic Provinces (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Prince Edward Island).
Candidates need a job offer from a designated employer in an Atlantic province.
AIP focuses on addressing the labour market needs in these specific regions.

Caregivers Program:

For individuals who have provided care for children, the elderly, or those with disabilities, in Canada.

Quebec Experience Program (PEQ):

For those who have studied or worked in the province of Quebec.
Requirements include proving French language proficiency.
This program is unique due to Quebec’s distinct immigration policies.

Family Sponsorship:

Allows Canadian citizens or PRs to sponsor relatives, including spouses, partners, children, or certain other family members, for permanent residency.
It is a popular option for TRs with close family ties in Canada.
This pathway is less about the applicant’s professional profile and more about family reunification.

As a summary, whether using the Express Entry system, provincial nominee programs, PNPs, or other specialized pathways, navigating the complexities of these options requires a clear and deliberate approach.
