Everyone knows that in recent years, Canada has tightened the immigration policy, and how many Chinese people "broke their heads" and wanted to immigrate to Canada! But do some people really "voluntarily sign" to give up the maple leaf card? intersection

what is going on?

Data from the Immigration Department show that in the past two years, more than 3,000 Chinese have signed and abandoned the status of Canadian permanent residents.

From January 2015 to June 2016, the number of people who took the initiative to abandon Canada was 11958, and the number of Chinese was 3116, accounting for 26 %.

Among them, the Canadian Immigration Visa Beijing Office received a total of 1046 applications for voluntary abandonment of permanent residents in 2015 and approved 890 applications.

Most of these applicants are engaged in business, most of which are not in the Canadian era in Canada, and cannot meet the requirements of "five years and two years".

Give up voluntarily

There are many reasons, mainly four categories:

1. Government civil servants/accept diplomatic positions in a certain country

The Chinese government recently investigated civil servants, other nationality/permanent residence status of public institutions and the status/permanent residence status of enterprises owned by senior countries. Once they are found, they will be punished slightly.

2. I hope to maintain/obtain permanent resident/citizenship in other countries.

Chinese law stipulates that as long as the nationality of other countries is obtained, Chinese nationality will automatically cancel. Some Chinese are unwilling to abandon Chinese nationality, so they are unwilling to join Canadian nationality.

If you are unwilling to join Canadian nationality, you must live in Canada for at least two years every five years. In the case of less than this period, the identity of permanent residents will be lost.

Why not give up Chinese nationality to join Canada?

First of all, China is not an immigrant country. It was once a Chinese who automatically abandon Chinese nationality, and it is difficult to obtain Chinese nationality.

Secondly, China is very cautious about joining Chinese nationality and does not allow foreign citizenship in China.

3. Canada has issued a 10 -year tourist visa to China. It has been 10 years and it is easier to go to Canada.

4. I have lived outside Canada for a long time, and I did not meet the rules of "two -ties"!

The certificate does not want to wait for the visa staff to evaluate whether it is still a permanent resident;

I do not want to be questioned when I enter the customs, causing time delay;

Many people have given up the identity of permanent resident because they cannot live in Canada for 2 years within 5 years.

hint

Giving up will not affect the re -application

According to the provisions of the Canadian Immigration Service, those who give up permanent resident status, if they want to immigrate to Canada again,

Because they have given up, it will be different, and the immigration department will still review the immigration category based on their applications.

Falling into a trap?

Some immigration lawyers pointed out that many "voluntary abandoned" people were intentionally instructed by immigration officials.

Although the expiration of Maple Leaf Card does not mean losing the identity of permanent residents, when the maple leaf card has expired people returned to Canada, they must go to the visa office to apply for "" (permanent resident travel documents).

At present, the visa officer will review your conditions to check whether you still meet the terms of Canada's permanent residents.

If you find that you have lived in China for too long and are not satisfied with Canada for two years, immigration officials will allow you to abandon permanent resident status and enter the country with other tourist visas.

If the applicant is unwilling to give up and wants to retain permanent identity, he can appeal in Canada.

Immigration lawyers pointed out that in order to reduce appeals and save human resources and funds, the Canadian Immigration Department deliberately guided applicants to abandon the identity of permanent residents.

People may be confused based on the guidance of the visa center, and "voluntarily" signed an application for abandoning the status of permanent residents in order to successfully enter the country without delaying more time.
