How we help you immigrate from the Philippines to Canada
Permanent residence
Skilled work experience gained outside the Philippines may be relevant to an Express Entry assessment. Your actual duties and program eligibility matter. Mirzoyan Immigration Services offers profile preparation, application support after an invitation, and separate reviews of Express Entry profiles or invited applications.

Spousal sponsorship
If your spouse or partner is Canadian or a Canadian permanent resident, ask about sponsorship eligibility and application support. Online appointments let both partners discuss the work when they live in different countries. Preparation and representation follow the scope in your written agreement.

Work permits
A caregiver job enquiry needs to distinguish a work permit from a permanent-residence pilot. The Home Care Worker Immigration pilots are closed to new applications. A consultation can assess other available options for your circumstances without promising a job or pilot place.

Study permits
The Philippines previously participated in the Student Direct Stream, which closed in November 2024. Study permit support concerns the regular process. Your consultant can assess your proposed course and study plans, while explaining which later work or permanent-residence questions need separate advice.

Refusals and changed circumstances
A refusal can disrupt your plans and leave the next application uncertain. Bring the decision letter to a consultation so the reasons can be considered before further preparation.

Frequently asked questions
Is it easy for Filipinos to migrate to Canada?
Filipino citizenship does not create an automatic immigration route; the suitable program depends on your qualifications and family circumstances. For the Federal Skilled Worker Program, your work must match the occupation’s lead statement and most main duties. A familiar job title alone is insufficient. Experience gained while working outside the Philippines can count if it meets the program requirements.
How much money do you need to immigrate to Canada from the Philippines?
The budget for moving from the Philippines depends on the program and family size. Settlement funds are separate from application, travel and professional costs. Where Express Entry proof of funds applies, include your spouse and dependent children even if they remain abroad. A bank balance screenshot does not replace the required bank letter, which includes debts and six-month average balances.
How long does it take for a Filipino to get a Canadian visa?
Canadian visa processing time depends on the application type and where you apply, rather than Filipino citizenship alone. Check IRCC’s processing-time tool for the relevant category and country. If you work outside the Philippines, select your actual country of application where requested. The displayed estimate is neither a maximum nor a guarantee; avoid treating a general online average as your decision date.
Can I bring my Filipino wife to Canada?
Eligible Canadian citizens and permanent residents can sponsor a Filipino spouse for permanent residence. A Canadian citizen sponsoring from the Philippines must show plans to live in Canada once the spouse becomes a permanent resident. Canadian permanent residents living abroad cannot sponsor. Check the sponsor’s status and residence before deciding where to live during processing.
Can I get a student visa in Canada from the Philippines?
Students from the Philippines can apply for a Canadian study permit if they meet the current requirements. The Student Direct Stream ended on November 8, 2024, so new applications use the regular process. Check the school, program, funding and required documents before applying. Admission does not guarantee a study permit or later permission to work after graduation.
