Sure, I can help you with that.
As a professional chef, you may be eligible to apply for permanent residency in Canada under the following programs:
- Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
- Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)
The CEC is a program that allows skilled workers who have gained work experience in Canada to apply for permanent residency. The PNP is a program that allows provinces and territories to nominate skilled workers who they believe would be a benefit to their economy.
To be eligible for the CEC, you must meet the following requirements:
- You must have a valid work permit in Canada.
- You must have at least one year of skilled work experience in Canada in the past three years.
- Your work experience must be in a skilled occupation that is listed on the National Occupation Classification (NOC) list.
- You must have a language proficiency level of at least Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) 7 in both English and French.
- You must have a valid medical exam and criminal background check.
If you meet the requirements for the CEC, you will need to create an Express Entry profile. The Express Entry system is a points-based system that is used to rank eligible applicants for permanent residency.
Your points will be based on your age, education, work experience, language proficiency, and other factors. You will need to score at least 67 points to be eligible for the CEC.
Once you have created an Express Entry profile, you will be placed in the Express Entry pool. Applicants in the pool are ranked according to their points, and invitations to apply for permanent residency (ITAs) are issued to the highest-ranked applicants.
If you receive an ITA, you will have 60 days to submit your application for permanent residency. Your application will be assessed by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), and you will be notified of the decision within six months.
If your application is approved, you will be granted permanent residency in Canada.
As for your question about WES, it is not mandatory for you to do a WES evaluation for your permanent residency application. However, it is highly recommended that you do so, as it will help to demonstrate your educational credentials to IRCC.
WES is a non-profit organization that provides educational credential evaluations for immigration purposes. They will assess your educational credentials and issue a report that will be used by IRCC to assess your application.
If you decide to do a WES evaluation, you will need to submit your academic transcripts and other supporting documents to WES. The evaluation process typically takes a few weeks.
To apply for the PNP, you will need to contact the province or territory that you are interested in immigrating to. Each province and territory has its own requirements for PNP applicants, so you will need to check with the specific province or territory that you are interested in.
Once you have contacted the province or territory, they will assess your application and decide if you are eligible for nomination. If you are nominated, you will then be able to apply for permanent residency through the Express Entry system.
Here are some tips for applying for the PNP:
- Do your research: Before you apply for the PNP, it is important to do your research and understand the requirements of the specific province or territory that you are interested in.
- Get organized: It is important to get organized and gather all of the necessary documents before you apply for the PNP.
- Be patient: The application process for the PNP can take some time, so it is important to be patient.
I hope this information is helpful.
