http://www.canachieve.com.cn 发布日期:2009-06-07
只要你和你的辅申请人属于加拿大永久居民,你们有权利在加拿大生活,工作,学习。并且你们可以享受加拿大公民拥有的大多数社会福利。当你符合加拿大公民的条件,你可以申请加拿大公民资格,获得加拿大护照。
这里有一些对永久居民的限制:
你不能被选举
对于一些要求高度保密性的工作,你可能不合格。
作为永久居民,你与加拿大公民一样有义务守法,例如缴税,遵守其他法律。
如果你和你的辅申请人涉及严重的犯罪,你和你的辅申请人有可能被责令离开加拿大。
你拥有永久居住权直到你加入加拿大国籍或放弃加拿大永久居住权。如果你连续离开加拿大或长时间不在加拿大,你可能被认为已经放弃居住权。如果你只是为了签证生效而来到加拿大,而后就返回你的祖国,你将失去你的永久居住权。
Permanent residence status gives a non-Canadian the right to live in Canada. Permanent residents enjoy most of the rights and responsibilities of Canadian citizens. They must meet certain residency obligations to maintain their status.
Permanent residents have a right to enter Canada. Like Canadian citizens, permanent residents also enjoy all the rights guaranteed under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms such as equality rights, legal rights, mobility rights, freedom of religion, freedom of expression and freedom of association. However, permanent residents cannot run for political office nor are they eligible to vote until they obtain Canadian citizenship.
As a general rule, permanent residents may apply for citizenship after accumulating three years of residence in Canada. To acquire Canadian citizenship, applicants must demonstrate a knowledge of either English or French, Canada as a nation, and the rights and responsibilities of citizenship.
