For example, immigrants from countries that&lt;br /&gt;do not recognize dual citizenship or that limit the transfer of assets&lt;br /&gt;may delay their decision to acquire Canadian citizenship.&lt;br /&gt;Learn more from *http://www.canadaone.org Immigration Canada&lt;br /&gt;Information Resource Center, news update on canada immigration law,&lt;br /&gt;canada immigration visa and related immiration services&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9059579-109988513990614239?l=canadaimmigrationlawyer.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://canadaimmigrationlawyer.blogspot.com/feeds/109988513990614239/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9059579&amp;postID=109988513990614239' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9059579/posts/default/109988513990614239'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9059579/posts/default/109988513990614239'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://canadaimmigrationlawyer.blogspot.com/2004/11/canadian-citizenship.html' title='Canadian citizenship'/><author><name>Canada Immigration Lawyer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17218387884507354167</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9059579.post-109988505811834144</id><published>2004-11-07T19:36:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2004-11-07T19:37:38.116-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Immigration Class in Canada</title><content type='html'>Source: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/monitor/issue06/06-feature.html&lt;br /&gt;Learn more from *http://www.canadaone.org Immigration Canada&lt;br /&gt;Information Resource Center, news update on canada immigration law,&lt;br /&gt;canada immigration visa and related immiration services&lt;br /&gt;Immigration Class&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Citizenship acquisition rates also differ by immigration class (in this&lt;br /&gt;analysis, the four categories examined are economic, family, refugee&lt;br /&gt;and other).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Refugees had the highest citizenship acquisition rates for the&lt;br /&gt;1991�1995 cohort and were very close to the top for the 1996�1997&lt;br /&gt;landing cohort.

For example, the vast majority of refugees&lt;br /&gt;came from unstable countries, and these immigrants have higher rates of&lt;br /&gt;naturalization in Canada. In terms of age, the larger share of family&lt;br /&gt;class immigrants were 45 years old or more. Previous research has shown&lt;br /&gt;that immigrants who land at an older age are less likely to naturalize.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The vast majority of immigrants intend to become Canadian citizens&lt;br /&gt;after coming to Canada, availing themselves of the rights, privileges&lt;br /&gt;and responsibilities associated with Canadian citizenship. Data from&lt;br /&gt;CIC administrative files indicate that acquisition rates vary&lt;br /&gt;significantly depending on the place of birth and the immigration&lt;br /&gt;class. They also indicate that immigrants who have lived in the country&lt;br /&gt;for a longer period of time have higher citizenship acquisition rates&lt;br /&gt;than more recent arrivals, and that refugees and immigrants from&lt;br /&gt;developing countries have higher naturalization rates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The administrative dataset has allowed a more detailed examination of&lt;br /&gt;the citizenship acquisition process, particularly for different&lt;br /&gt;immigrant groups and landing cohorts over time. However, the rates&lt;br /&gt;(which are lower than ones recorded in the Census) may not be a true&lt;br /&gt;reflection of how many newcomers chose to become Canadian citizens.&lt;br /&gt;People who come to Canada and leave (or die) before they are eligible&lt;br /&gt;for citizenship are included in the figures but never consider making&lt;br /&gt;this choice. Citizenship acquisition rates, as calculated using the&lt;br /&gt;Census, may be a truer reflection of the proportion of newcomers who&lt;br /&gt;choose to complete their integration into Canadian society and&lt;br /&gt;naturalize.&lt;br /&gt;Learn more from *http://www.canadaone.org Immigration Canada&lt;br /&gt;Information Resource Center, news update on canada immigration law,&lt;br /&gt;canada immigration visa and related immiration services&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9059579-109988493370372136?l=canadaimmigrationlawyer.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://canadaimmigrationlawyer.blogspot.com/feeds/109988493370372136/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9059579&amp;postID=109988493370372136' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9059579/posts/default/109988493370372136'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9059579/posts/default/109988493370372136'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://canadaimmigrationlawyer.blogspot.com/2004/11/immigrants-intend-to-become-canadian.html' title=' Immigrants intend to become Canadian citizens after coming to Canada'/><author><name>Canada Immigration Lawyer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17218387884507354167</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9059579.post-109988485250939550</id><published>2004-11-07T19:30:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2004-11-07T19:34:12.510-08:00</updated><title type='text'> Immigrating to Canada</title><content type='html'>Source: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.html&lt;br /&gt;Learn more from *http://www.canadaone.org Immigration Canada&lt;br /&gt;Information Resource Center, news update on canada immigration law,&lt;br /&gt;canada immigration visa and related immiration services&lt;br /&gt;Every year, Canada welcomes thousands of new residents.
