Immigration Law Service
Application for Permanent Residence
Permanent residence applications require the right pathway, complete documents, accurate forms, and careful attention to eligibility. Sawan Law House LLP helps clients understand options and prepare organized submissions.
Request a call back
Permanent residence is a major step, and the right path is not always obvious. Some clients may qualify through Express Entry. Others may need family sponsorship, a business pathway, a refugee-related process, or a different route entirely. Each pathway has its own eligibility rules, documents, deadlines, and risks.
Sawan Law House LLP helps clients approach permanent residence applications with structure. We review your immigration history, current status, family situation, work experience, education, language results, and prior applications before recommending a path forward.
A strong application is not only about uploading documents. It is about showing eligibility clearly, answering forms consistently, explaining unusual facts where needed, and responding carefully if IRCC asks for more information.
This page provides general information only and is not legal advice. Immigration rules and program requirements can change, and you should speak with a lawyer about your circumstances before taking or delaying any step.

Common Questions
Permanent residence questions clients often ask.
Does creating an Express Entry profile guarantee permanent residence?
No. An Express Entry profile is not the same as a permanent residence application, and entering the pool does not guarantee an invitation to apply.
What causes permanent residence applications to run into problems?
Common issues include missing documents, inconsistent histories, weak proof of eligibility, inadmissibility concerns, prior refusals, and unclear relationship or work evidence.
Can family members be included?
Some applications include accompanying family members, while others require separate analysis or sponsorship. The correct approach depends on the program and family situation.
