QUESTION: i am a u.s. citizen seeking permanent residence in Canada. -------------------------------- david ingram replies: That does not give me anything to work on. However, you can go to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/skilled/assess/index.html This is the self-assessment test for an individual to determine his or her eligibility to immigrate to Canada without being sponsored by a spouse. You will need 67 points to qualify. If you do not get 67 points, you can arrange for employment, get a work visa and then use the one year's work experience to boost your points. A year of French immersion classes also goes a long way to raise your points. Hope this helps Answers to this and other similar questions can be obtained free on Air every Sunday morning.
