A practical starting point
PermanentResident.ca is an independent Canadian immigration information and professional-referral platform. We bring together bilingual guides, planning tools and destination resources to help you organize questions and find official information. We are not IRCC, a government service, a law firm or an immigration consultancy.
How the information is prepared
PermanentResident.ca publishes the guides under the platform’s name. We use government, regulator, municipal and service-provider sources and identify them on the relevant pages. City guides distinguish local service information from practical planning suggestions. No named professional reviewer or individual legal assessment is implied.
How professional-help enquiries work
You can use the guides and tools without requesting a referral. If you submit an enquiry, we review your destination, language and needs for a possible professional connection. Sharing your information requires separate consent. Availability and remote service depend on the provider. Any professional engagement, scope and fees are agreed directly with that professional.
Local coverage and independence
Our city and province guides describe destinations and independent resources. A page about a city does not mean we maintain an office there. Linked settlement organizations are references, not implied partners or endorsers. Verify a representative’s current authorization before retaining them. You may apply directly to IRCC without hiring a representative.
