French as a migratory advantage

Canada's priority for the French-speaking world is deeply embedded in its immigration policies. Here's why the French language and its relationship to Canadian immigration:

  • Bonus points in Express Entry: Demonstrating a good level of French gives you a significant advantage in the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). You can get up to 50 additional points points that can benefit you in the draws.
  • Specific lotteries: IRCC issues invitations to apply exclusively to French-speaking candidates, which reduces competition and increases the chances of being selected.
  • Benefits in the Francophone Mobility Program: this program allows French-speaking workers to obtain a work permit without the need for a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), which accelerates their arrival in Canada.which accelerates their arrival in Canada.
  • Priority in provincial pathways: several Canadian provinces have nomination programs that prioritize French-speaking immigrants, offering additional routes to permanent residency.

 

Fast track to permanent residency

In an immigration system that has become increasingly competitive and rigorous, French is a second key that can open the doors to permanent residency. It is an investment that can significantly accelerate your process, eliminating barriers and avoiding rejections. Beyond points and special programs, speaking French demonstrates your commitment to Canada's bilingualism and your willingness to integrate into the Canadian community. and your willingness to integrate into the country's French-speaking culture.
