去加拿大，绿卡和入籍的利弊对比 移民后，你会选择保留绿卡or入籍？这个问题你纠结吗？对于刚拿到绿卡的新移民来说，这是他们所共同面临的一个选择。如果想要入籍，则需要继续坐几年“移民监”。如果打算只是保有绿卡，就得每几年去更新一次。总的来说，各有各的好处，也各有各的麻烦。 入籍一定比拿绿卡更好吗？不一定。具体要视个人的家庭状况、职业状况及未来安排来决定。绿卡一定比入籍更自由吗？这也是个误区。入籍后在许多方面的便捷度都是远超绿卡的。让澳星移民来为您分析绿卡和入籍的利弊。 首先我们要知道，加拿大的“绿卡”究竟是什么呢？ 加拿大的PR卡其实叫做“永久居民”卡，“绿卡”的说法来自美国，是一个通称。但“永久居民”并不就意味着“永久”，而是有5年的有效期。如果申请人在拿到PR后在加拿大居住时间不够，有效期到期后很难拿到新PR卡。 有了PR卡后，就能在加拿大享受绝大多数社会福利和社会保障了。但你的护照依旧是原居地的，回原居地也不用办理签证。但如果在5年内，总共居住在加拿大的时间不到2年，那么你的绿卡可能就保不住了。 但要是住满一定的年份，就可以申请入籍了。那么问题来了，究竟该如何选择呢？ 如果你想涉足政治，请申请入籍 PR卡和入籍的区别究竟在哪里？有PR卡时已经基本能完全享受加拿大社会福利、医疗保障。最大的区别就在于，PR卡持有人没有选举权和被选举权。 所以，如果你热衷参与政治，申请入籍就是必须的。 如果你追求说走就走的旅行，请申请入籍 当然，大多数申请入籍者都是冲着加拿大护照而来。加拿大护照能在西方许多国家如旅游胜地欧洲免签，不用再想方设法办理签证，真正能实现“说走就走的旅行”，让不少旅游

加拿大移民在申请成为加拿大永久居民的时候会需要考试，考试内容会随着一些特定的原因而做调整，为此，小编搜集了2012年在加拿大入籍考试的试题供大家参考。 1. 加拿大的海军基地是哪个省，HALIFAX 的那个省。 2. 加拿大的最高峰是根据谁命名的，应该是个地理学家，答: William Logan 3. 加拿大在1950-1952年参加了哪儿的战争，南韩和朝鲜 4. 加拿大在二战期间二次惨败的战役是什么，香港和?(忘了) 因为没有看书(老公多年前参加的入籍考试，说看书看浪费时间的而且内容多不容易记，只要在网上多做点练习题就可以，但是我们都忽略了新版考试的试题跟以前不一样，而且实施的时间不长，所以题库里新题的量并不多还时间去积累)只在网上练习了十几套练习题，所以一道也没答上了，这次要悬。所以奉劝大家一定要看书，至少要过一遍，脑子里大致有个印象。 其它的题基本上都在练习题里，只是换了说法，比如他例出四个科学家的名字让你猜他们是以前的总督，总理，还是科学家，还是联邦之父，如果你知道其中一个人名就应该可以答的出来了，还有就是政府的三个级别，联邦，省&地区，市，前面一姐姐起身交卷的时候我瞄了一眼她的答案，她写成了立法机构的三个级别，可为时已晚来不及告诉她了。所以还要看清题目，不会做的就只能蒙了，但一定要确保会答的不出差错。暂时就这些了，希望能多少帮到大家。 我上周考的，题目确实比预期的要难一些。考试之前我也在几个网站做了将近300道题，但是考试时还是碰到2、3题是模拟题里面没有提到过的。幸亏我看了4遍书，不然还真有点悬。记得有一题是问parliament building 的peace tower是为了纪念哪一次战争;还有一题是问到哪一部法律给了公民right to challenge unlawful detention;还有一题问一个为了逃避奴隶制而从美国逃到加拿大的黑人应该怎么称呼，我选了black loyalist。 I sat the test yesterday and the majority of questions are the same as those that have been posted previously. (see sivans post) The questions i had'nt seen in this thread, or in the online tests were: 1. Which countries fought in the Plains of Abraham, 1759 2. Who were Chief Teumsch, Major Isaac Brock ? 3. Which of the following was got burnt down and rebuilt in 1922? (Cant remember the choices given, but the correct answer is Parliament) 4. There was a question about inventors (cant remember which but i know the "Inventors Question"was NOT on the following famous inventors William Penfield, Bombardier or Alexander Graham Bell. It was one of the others in the Discover Can. guide, cant remember which ones 5. How many steps does it take for a bill to become a law?
加拿大入籍后需要回国的朋友一定要看！ 在拿了海外护照以后，即使你手中的中国护照还在有效期内，你回国还是应该乖乖地拿海外新护照去申请中国签证，这样你可以避免以后在中国境内遭遇任何的身份麻烦，因为你是外国公民合法入境。但是切记回国后的第一件事情是把户口落下来（如果以前注销了的话，立即申请恢复），或者户口一直没有注销的话，一定要重新申请一个新的身份证（一般有效期都是10-20年了），有效期越长越好啦。以前的身份证你就说遗失了，申请补办！这个身份证会省了你太多太多事，对于你以后在国内办任何事情都很方便，例如临时租房、住酒店（不少酒店对外籍人士是执行另外美金价格的）、申办信用卡、签国内的手机PLAN……。而海外护照+中国签证除了证明你是合法入境之外，你如果找到工作后，1、你作为外籍人士，很多大公司要求你必须有合法在中国工作的身份，你到时候不可避免要去申请Work Permit，但是那时候你的加拿大护照上如果空空如也，连和签证和入境章都没有的话，你是极有可能被地方的出入境管理局判为非法入境而遣返的；2、你的个人所得税也会以外国人的标准来征收（现在国内起征点1600，海外身份4800，包括外籍和中国国籍有海外永居权的同志们）；3、还有一些外籍人士在中国工作可以得到的便利，包括但不限于：例如紧急海外出差等等，都可以利用上你的外籍护照。 1.入籍后，回国创业比起中国籍贯是方便了还是麻烦了？ 2入籍后，在国内工作比起中国籍是方便了还是麻烦了？ 3不入籍，身为加拿大人的孩子会因为我是中国人在国内生活读书方便吗 如果入籍，你的旅行证件（也就是枫叶卡）会被收走，没有枫叶卡，你就不能以中国护照进入或者离开中国，因为边检一般会检查你的出境签证或者旅行证件（当然，入境时也许会不看，但出境时绝对会检查的）。所以，一旦入籍，仍拿中国护照闯关，即使成功，再直接出境到加拿大是绝对不可能的，当然如果有美国签证，绕道美国回加，应该可以。 在加拿大，申请中国签证，只能申请旅游签证（第二天就能办好），不办工作签证；工作签证要到国内公安局换（一般，单位会替办申请）。 所以，以加籍身份到达国内，如果要工作的话，必须申请工作签证，所在工作单位必定会知道。（当然，这里可以是申请工作签证的单位和实际工作单位不一，出不出问题，假单位愿不愿意帮你，就看你自己的胆量和关系了） 如果，单位知道你的加籍身份，就会按政策停止公积金、养老金等国家提供的保障，和户口（即使没有取消）无关；医疗保险要看各个单位还有没有自行政策。（当然，如果单位不管什么加籍等这套，大概也会继续这些保险，但可能性不大）。 如果你在加拿大境外工作，那么加拿大这边的税不必交，据我所知：在你离开加拿大之前，你需要给加拿大税务局打电话，告诉他们你什么时间开始离开加拿大去其他国家工作。他们会告诉你相应的税务事宜，你便一清二楚了。但是，你在中国工作，你必须向中国政府纳税； 外籍人士购买商业保险与中国公民并无差异

绿野投资移民深度揭秘之：永居身份、绿卡、国籍的区别 绿野按：投资移民是事关您个人、家庭、事业前途的大事，不可不察。投资移民行业信息严重不对称、投资移民中介潜规则横行，绿野为您深度揭秘投资移民行业、为您顺利投资移民保驾护航。 对于准备申请移民者来说，通常会被“永居”、“绿卡”、“公民”等概念混淆。 一、“永居”、“绿卡”、“公民”的区别是什么？ 拥有美国永久居留许可（永居）的人被称为美国永久居民，由于美国给美国永久居民发放的证件是绿色的，故中国人习惯将所有国家的永久居留许可证件（绿卡）称为"绿卡"。其实绝大多数投资移民国家第一步只会颁发临时居留许可，然后居住若干年后才会颁发永久居留许可，最后再居住若干年后才可以申请加入该国国籍（公民）。一般主流移民国家，像美国、加拿大、澳大利亚、新西兰，大约需要10年左右的移民监才能拿到国籍，非主流移民国家，像英国、德国、西班牙、葡萄牙会需要更长时间。据2014的报道称，94%的中国移民在澳洲定居至少10年才能成为澳洲公民身份，相比之下，英国有71%的移民在澳定居至少10年才拿到澳洲公民身份，北美是70%，新西兰是45%。 二、美国永久居民和美国公民 美国永久居民卡 美国永久居民卡（英语：United States Permanent Resident Card，亦称作绿卡，Green Card），是用于证明外国人在美利坚合众国境内拥有永久居民身份的一种身份证。“获得绿卡”则用于指称成为永久居民的移民过程。绿卡持有者的合法永久居留权是由官方授予的移民福利，其中包括有条件地在美国居留与获取工作的许可。持有者必须保持他的永久居民身份，如果该身份所需的某个条件不再满足时，持有者将可能失掉该身份。 正在申请绿卡期间的外国人可以申请取得两项重要的许可证件。 1、其一为授权就业卡（EAD），这种临时工作许可证允许该外国人在美国获取工作。 2、其二为预先入境许可，这种临时旅行证明允许该外国人返回美国。
【篇一】加拿大移民新入籍法的规定 1.时间放宽松 新法案修正了众多人所关心的居住时间机制，由6年住满4年更改为5年住满3年，而且之前以非永久居民身分(如工作或学习许可证)在加居住的时间可按比例纳入计算。这对有工签的人或留学生非常有利。 2.作废“留加意图”条款 新法划定加拿大政府无权作废公民的加拿大国籍。政府能作废公民身份的理由是，发现申请人在申请公民身份的历程中造假。 3.语言要求降低 法案修正入籍申请人进行语言考试的年岁，由目前法律规定的18至64岁减低至18至60岁，这意味着60岁或以上的入籍申请人士，可免除参加语言考试。 4.报税记载时间淘汰 原法案C-24划定需要提供已往6年内4年的报税记载，而新法案只要求提供已往5年内3年的报税记载即可。 5.未成年人可以自己申请入籍 另外，新的修正案允许未成年人不再和父母一起申请入籍。之前，未成年人和父母必须同时申请，一旦父母被拒，他们必须等18岁后才有机会自己重新申请。 【篇二】加拿大移民的优势 1.环境好，投资收益稳定可观 加拿大被《福布斯》杂志和《彭博》商业周刊评为二十国集团中的经商首选。加拿大的财政政策和政治环境具有高度预见性、前瞻性和稳定性。结合加拿大在众多行业的广泛创新，确保了投资者可以收获短期利益，并维持长期收益的稳定性。 2.经济增长稳定高效，财政充盈 加拿大的经济增长在七国集团中处于地位。此外，加拿大是七国集团中债务对GDP的净比率最低的。加拿大的财政也很充盈，财政收入大于政府的偿还能力，且长期处于稳定的运行状态中。
3.银行体系稳定、商业税率低 加拿大银行体系在全球公认最安全、最稳定。此外，加拿大在七国集团—G7（美、英、德、法、日、意、加）中企业税率最低。 4.投资多样化 在加拿大经商的外国投资者能够采用本国投资者可用的所有形式，包括合资公司、独资公司、分公司、代表处和合伙制企业。相对而言，在加拿大设立企业程序简单，费用较低，具体的设立程序取决于设立企业所在的司法管辖区，但其步骤相似度较高。 扩展阅读：加拿大家庭团聚类移民 1、担保人条件 加拿大担保人必须年满18周岁，必须有足够的经济来源且达到移民部规定的最低收入标准。 2、担保人经济收入计算标准 移民部规定的收入标准每年2月公布，有效期为一年，每年会根据通货膨胀进行一定地调整；可以用于担保的收入一般指从入选时间往前推三年的全部税前收入，假如担保人有配偶也可以作为共同担保人，其收入则可以纳入这个总金额。 担保人最低收入要求： 家庭团聚的人数一般包括：担保人本人，担保人配偶及其子女加上被担保的父母及领养的子女。 3、申请流程 （1）递交申请，信息包括担保人的姓名，生日，出生地，家庭住址，邮编和邮箱。 （2）递交在线表格后，申请人将会受到确认码（如果有什么需要更改的，可以发邮件到指定移民局邮箱）。 （3）据悉移民局依旧会随机抽取1万份表格，邀请他们递交完整的申请；并且留出另一万个名额用作清理积压个案。 4、申请费用 （1）政府费用：$550加币每个人
【篇一】加拿大移民纸和绿卡的介绍 1、加拿大移民纸 申请人的一切资料与条件合格以后，加拿大移民部将向申请人发出“移民签证”，又被称为“移民纸”。 “移民纸”一式多份，是申请入进入加拿大的合法签证，申请人持此文件可顺利离开原居住国并进入加国海关或口岸报到，称为“入境登陆”，此时那里的加国移民官会在“移民纸”上签字，并将其中一页交给申请人。此页文件成为申请人此后在加国长期定居的合法身份，文件同于美国的“绿卡”。持此页文件的加拿大移民人士在加国被称为“加盟永久居民”，“落地移民”或“新移民”，有此种身份的中国大陆和台湾籍人士从此身份变为“华侨”，但继续持有原居住国颁发的护照。 加国的法律规定，“永久居民”除了不能参加竞选和投票以外，在经商就业，学习进修，社会和医疗福利等方面享有与加国公民同等的权利；同时也应承担与加国公民同等的义务，如照章纳税和遵守法律等。在加国经商就业，求学进修，享受社会医疗福利等方面，不存在“永久居民”和“加国居民”之别，仅需要持“社会保险卡”办理各种手续。 2、加拿大“绿卡” “永久居民”在加国报到的三年以后如无重大的犯罪过失，就可以申请成为“加国公民”，并领取加拿大护照。 “永久居民”所持的“绿卡”或“永久居民身份”没有有效期限的限制，只要不违反加国的法规，可以在数十年内保持“绿卡”，也可不申请“加国公民”身份。加拿大承认双重或多重国籍，所以加国境内有些人保持双重或多重国籍。 中国禁止其公民保持双重国籍，所以办理加拿大移民的中国大陆人士一旦在加国定居三年并获得加国公民身份以后，就被认为失去了中国国籍，不再受中国法律的管辖和保护。 【篇二】加拿大曼省投资移民的优点 加拿大移民是非常受欢迎的，它幅员辽阔，风景优美。到加拿大旅行的游客，每年就要上百万。在这样国家里，你不会感觉到资本主义国家的势利的一面，它充满着生活的温暖，民风淳朴。加拿大居民都非常乐于助人，在你加拿大移民之后也不会有游离感。而其中曼省是一个非常不错的选择。 1、生活水平高而花费低，这使得曼省成为一个供养家庭的好地方，同时也是一个定居、投资、创业的好地方。
适合美国移民定居的城市 [导语]美国的州和城市差异很大，移民选择居住的选择居住的城市会考虑当地的气候、安全、就业和教育等因素。以下是整理的适合美国移民定居的城市，欢迎阅读！ [篇一]适合美国移民定居的城市 1、旧金山 对于移居美国的人们来说，旧金山往往是美国最的城市。那些去度假的人往往会立刻爱上它的魅力。旧金山有808,854人口，被称为海湾之城。 这是一个经济上有保障的城市，拥有出色的娱乐/社交生活(将近400家酒吧和3,430家餐厅)和良好的教育体系。居民享受空气清新(环境友好)并在那里感到安全。该地区的失业率很低，为7.8%，平均家庭收入可观，仅略高于90,000美元。 2、西雅图 西雅图拥有624,070名人口，并且据称生活质量良好，与旧金山一较高下。雨水充沛，并不能给人们带来任何好处，因为城市的经济稳定性以及清洁的空气和环境使之成为外国人的首选。得益于微软的雇主，该地区的就业率很高。西雅图在相对较小的地区拥有四个专业运动队，拥有人口的16.8%拥有研究生学位，西雅图将从快乐的居民中受益! 3、华盛顿特区 美国政治之都为外派人员提供优质的教育，以及大量的休闲设施和景点。它拥有100个博物馆和88个图书馆，深受游客和居民的欢迎。 4、俾斯麦 俾斯麦是美国北达科塔州中部伯利县的县治，也是北达科塔州的首府。北达科他州作为一个完整的州，是移居国外的一个好地方。该
州是全美失业率最低的州之一，在经济危机中也安然无恙。 5、纽约 纽约是旅游业的宠儿，也是美国的城市，拥有811万人口。纽约拥有22,000家餐厅和1200家酒吧，为休闲和社交设施提供了众多选择。作为一个时尚、媒体/出版、商店和商业的中心，为在纽约定居的人们以及世界大学提供大量就业机会。对于那些追求国际化生活方式的人来说，纽约是一个不错的选择。即使昂贵，这座永不眠的城市也是年轻专业人士的理想之选。 [篇二]美国移民的税务优惠 美国移民专家提示，根据美国的法律规定，美国机会抵税额（AOTC）可以让学生们最多获得2500元的抵税，但条件是报税者如果单身，年收入必须在8万元以下，如果结了婚年收入必须在16万元以下才符合申请要求。 国税局在报税的时候不会问报税者的种族或者移民身份，但是AOTC并不适用于非居民外国人,也就是说，只有美国绿卡持有者和公民身份的人才可以申请。 另外一项低收入抵税额（EITC），也是只适用于美国移民（持有绿卡）或者公民，以及那些与公民或者绿卡持有者结婚并共同报税的非居民外国人。 美国移民专家表示，这个项目其实并不是给外国人准备的，所以不要贪图这一两千元的小便宜，因为在将来入籍的时候会让纳税人交报税单，这样就会带来很大麻烦 此外，EITC还会问你其他收入有没有超过50%,一些人其实有家里的经济支持但是仍然说没有，如果被抓到绿卡会取消，如果是留学生就会被驱逐出境。 [篇三]美国投资移民的项目 然而，相对加拿大而言，美国是有风险的投资，EB-5移民法要求投资必须处于风险中，不可以有担保。这样的说法让很多人望而却步，担心钱的偿还问题。就这个问题，选择移民国家前，申请者首先要了
移民申请加拿大国籍的条件 1．申请人首先必须是加拿大合法的永久居民，即已经有了移民的身份； 2．作为主申请人提出入籍申请必须年满十八岁以上； 3．申请人必须在提出入籍申请之当日算起的过去四年中，在加拿大境内住满三年（在这四年中，申请人要正式成为合法的加拿大移民后，在加拿大居住一天才能算一天，而在未正式成为移民之前，在加拿大居住一天只能算半天。也就是说，在未正式成为移民之前，申请人在加拿大居住两年只能算一年。在成为正式移民之前，不管申请人在加拿大居住了多久，最多只能算一年。四年之前，即使申请人在加拿大居住过也不能计算在内。申请人在这四年期间中可以离开加拿大，但是在加拿大居住的累计时间，一定要满三年才可以。例如申请人于一九八八年一月一日来到加拿大，则要到一九九零年十二月三十一日之后才能申请入籍。如果申请人在这段时间内离开过加拿大，则离开加拿大的时间必须扣除。另外，被监禁或有条件假释的那一段期间，不能记入所必须在加境内居住三年的时间之内）； 4．没有以下所列举出的任何一种情况；被认为对加拿大的安全构成威协；被下达了驱逐出境令；有条件地出狱或受监督或假释；目前仍然被监禁；在提出入籍申请之日算起的过去三年内犯过刑事罪。 5．能运用法语或者英语，也就是说，能运用加拿大的两种官方语言之一进行交流； 6．对加拿大这个国家有一定程度的了解，包括公民的权利和义务、加拿大的政体、历史、地理等等（上入籍课时会发给申请人《加拿大公民》和《加拿大一瞥》两本小册子，里面就包含了上述的内容）； 7．完成入籍宣誓和签名的程序。 符合上述条件的人都可以成为加拿大公民。年龄未满十八岁的少年儿童，当他（她）的父亲或母亲成为加拿大公民时，他（她）也可以成为加拿大公民。申请由他（她）的父亲、母亲或者监护人提出。小孩的入籍申请可以和父母的一齐提出，也可以在其父母之一成为加拿大公民之后再另外申请。如果小孩与父母同时申请，基本上都能同时拿到公民证书。年满十四岁以上的申请人要在申请表格中签名，参加宣誓仪式，并且在宣誓之后签名。 扩展阅读：加拿大移民福利优势 一、加拿大政府降低移民人士入籍门槛 加拿大移民入籍原先需要在六年内住满四年才能递交入籍申请，新法案将要求申请者在加拿大居住的时间缩短为五年内住满三年。此外，申请者在成为永久
2009年10月份澳洲移民部给出澳洲入籍样题如下，主要的考核范围包括： 1、澳大利亚民主信仰、法律和政府 2、国民的权利、职责和优越性 3、澳洲历史和文化 1. What do we remember on Anzac Day? （澳洲建军节） The landing of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps at Gallipoli The arrival of the first free settlers from Britain The landing of the First Fleet at Sydney Cove 2. What are the colours of the Australian Aboriginal Flag? （澳洲土著国旗的颜色） Black, red and yellow Green, white and black Blue, white and green 3. Which official symbol of Australia identifies Commonwealth property? （澳洲联邦的标志） The national anthem Australias national flower Commonwealth Coat of Arms 4. Which of these is an example of freedom of speech? （澳洲言论自由的表现形式） Newspapers can write about any topic Men and women are treated equally in a court of law Australians are free to not follow a religion 5. Which of these is a responsibility of Australian citizens aged 18 years or over? （18岁以上澳洲公民的职责和权利） To attend local council meetings To vote in elections To have a current Australian passport 6. Which of these statements about passports is correct? （澳洲护照）Australian citizens can apply for an Australian passport Permanent residents can hold an Australian passport
【篇一】加拿大移民入籍被拒的原因 1、语言不过关 其实，英语一直都是让我们头疼的问题，不管是考试，还是移民，很多申请人都因为英语成绩不过关，与移民失之交臂。据统计，因为英语能力而被刷下来的中国移民数量约占比例的7%，同时入籍加拿大需要通过“加拿大语言标准”（CLB）英法语考试，要是英语成绩不达标，移民部便会要求申请人进行英语培训之后再做入籍申请，在第二次申请时，只需要证明自己已通过入籍语言考试即可，不会影响入籍成功率。 2、居住时间不达标 如果居住时间不够，联邦法官也有可能*入籍许可。很多中国移民都采取两地频繁往返的居住方式，也确实有很多移民就算未达到居住期限也成功入籍。但是如果计算下来每年居住在加拿大的时间比居住在其他国家的时间短，就算申请人表明意愿今后居住在加拿大，也有很大可能性入籍被拒。除非能够证明大部分时间住在加拿大，只是少数有事才离开，不然两地来回飞的申请人在申请入籍加拿大的时候是非常危险的。 3、对加拿大的热爱程度不够 很多时候，申请人的诚意也会被移民官作为是否给通过的理由，针对这个问题，申请人在入境之前进行有关入籍考试等信息培训并且认真复习，因为在入口考试时，申请人有太多一无所知，便会被认定为典型的无诚意成为公民的表现。在移民官的印象里，对加拿大的热爱程度、成为加拿大公民的自豪感、对加拿大文化的认识以及居住在加拿大的意愿等等都会被纳入考虑范围之内，切不可掉以轻心。 4、犯罪或被控告 加拿大《公民法》规定，不允许正在受重罪指控或者已被定罪人士申请入籍，而肇事青年所涉及的刑事疏忽致他人受伤是重罪指控之一，若是罪名成立，不仅入籍无望，还要被处10年监禁。 5、作假 因为居住时间不够而伪造居住证明的例子并不少见，很多人最后的结果就是被扣上伪造身份、伪造陈诉等多项罪名，如果在入籍考试中作假那更是做不得，更不会入籍成功的。 【篇二】扩展阅读：加拿大移民买房的指南

加拿大移民入籍新政 加拿大移民一直都受到人们的广泛关注，特别是近年来，经济技术的快速发展，促使越来越多的人计划移民加拿大。移民者的最终目的一定是入籍，成为当地的合法公民，享受移民国的各种福利政策。 最近，备受瞩目的加拿大移民入籍新法案C-6于7月1日正式施行。新法案的最大亮点是与被取代的C-24法案相比，降低了对移民入籍的居住要求。有分析称，新法案给留学生、海外技工入籍加拿大带来福音，有移民意愿者应抓住机会。 C-24法案介绍： 加拿大新的公民法(C——24法案)于6月19日正式生效，新法将增加了新的条款。 其中，有关接纳更多应拿，但还未拿公民的加拿大人(Lost Canadian)的条款； 新的居住要求； 居住意愿要求； 参加入籍考试年龄扩大为14岁至64岁； 以官方语言证明其具有加拿大知识的要求； 其他还包括提高申请造假的刑罚； 禁止外国罪犯及从事影响国家安全活动的人士申请入籍； 新的公民权取消模型及新增取消公民权理由； 规范入籍顾问的组织； 改善各主管单位间的信息互享过程。 目的是减少审批处理时间，收紧居住时间要求，以及打击入籍申请中的造假舞弊行为。 这是加拿大入籍法自1977年开始实施以来第一次全面修订，这也是对入籍资格的全面收紧。 2014年二月6号，加拿大政府颁布了移民[微博]法修正案(Bill C-24)。如果通过，那1977年法案的一些内容就会被改变。下面是Bill C-24和之前移民法中一些重要改变点的对比。 1、居住时间： 之前法规是是4年内必须在加拿大住满3年，但是新法规定是6年住满4年，而且每年要待够183天。 新法取消了非居民居住时间可部分折算成入籍居住时间的条款(注：而旧法下申请人在没有获得加拿大永久居民身份期间在加拿大居住的时间可以按1/2折算成入籍居住时间) 2、税收： 旧法不要求加拿大永久居民提交所得税的凭据。但是新法规定，只有在6年中的4年里有加拿大税务记录的人才有申请入籍。
