British Columbia's Provincial Nominee Program just closed out one of its most turbulent years on record, and if you're planning to apply, the lessons from 2025 matter more than ever. The federal government slashed BC's nomination allocation in half, applications from previous years piled up before the province even started, and yet the BC PNP still managed to nominate over 6,200 people. How? By becoming far more selective about who gets through the door. We've spent the year

A recent CBC report highlights growing interest among Americans in obtaining Canadian citizenship certificates — and there is an important reason behind it. Canada’s citizenship-by-descent rules changed significantly on December 15, 2025, when Bill C-3 came into effect. 🇨🇦 What changed? For many people born outside Canada, the previous “first-generation limit” had prevented Canadian citizenship from being passed down to children born abroad beyond the first generation. Bill

很久之前写过一篇入籍to be or not to be的问题，其实更多情况下，大家最为挣扎的应该是PR card的问题。也不知道为什么这么多年都没有写一下枫叶卡相关的文章，这可是新移民最迫切的“既要又要”。 最近让我想起来写一下blog的是几个住不够的小伙伴，还有一位需要退籍的老客户，没错，退出加拿大国籍：移民一样是围城。 大家平时说保卡，真的是保一张枫叶卡吗？首先PR card跟PR status是两个概念，5年住满2年是另一个概念，我甚至发现很多移民顾问自己都说不清楚这两个概念，当移民这个行业变成越来越商业化的时候，最底层的逻辑又有多少行业人士会认真琢磨呢？ 申请PR是一个事情，拿到PR之后难道完全没事了吗？我一直强调，枫叶卡上面的有效期不那么重要，重要的是PR这个status，很久之前PR根本就没有枫叶卡，只有移民纸，所以为什么老移民到现在都对移民纸有一种特殊情感，移了30年以上还把移民纸压箱底的大有人在。极端的例子就是，一个拿到PR的人一直不离开加拿大，那他的枫叶卡过期对他日常生活毫无影响；一个枫叶卡过期的人，如果他过去5年长期住在加拿

不出意外的，加拿大移民局又再开始整活儿了。 2025年6月25日 加拿大对 毕业工签（PGWP） 的要求又开始调整了。这次大刀砍向的是college diplomat这个类别，限定了929个专业类别才能获得毕业工签。暂时学士，硕士，博士学位这三个类别不受专业类别限制，顺利毕...

终于搬了新办公室了，最近工作都满腔热情，感谢家人朋友的鼓励和陪伴，和客户们这些年一直对我不离不弃。都不敢想象，之前在Burnaby的办公室一做就10年，属于大隐隐于市，名副其实旺中带静，毫不显眼，主打一个不认识我的绝对找不到我的感觉。再往前推，我还在New...

疫情之后加拿大联邦政府跟各省政府一直调整移民签证的政策，调的幅度比过去10年加起来都多，每周甚至每天都有新动静，天天看新闻一样看。政府甚至把一些多年稳定的项目删的删减的减，具体的分析各大移民公司都有解读，我们小红书也有，但是总结下来，其实最明显的就是几个调整：...

一年两篇blogs的节奏实在汗颜，在这个网络信息如此发达的年代，坚持只在网站上默默写blogs的顾问估计不多，有时候太低调地宣传是有负面影响的，但如果让我跟大部分人走一条路，那我表示没兴趣。今天趁着2016年温哥华第一场雪，写一下blog迎接暴风雪来临........

我相信很多人会好奇自己现在的或者以后找的移民顾问是个什么样的人，人人都有偷窥的心理，与其猜测，不如坦诚，不过希望通过这篇文章了解Yvonne这个人的人恐怕要失望，正如你想了解任何一个人一样，花的时间跟理解深度都不能成正比，何况只是一个跟政府打交道的一个代理人，所以这个标题纯...
