Canada offers so many opportunities for people from all over the world to emigrate from their own country. You can apply to immigrate from your country of origin and when your application is successfully granted your permanent resident card (PR Card) is issued to you so that you can relocate. However, a lot of people have gotten jobs before immigrating which even enhances the immigration process.
You must bear in mind that despite immigrating with your Permanent Resident Card most people have actually gotten very good job offers from Canada while still living in their own country. If the job is certified by the Human Resources and Skills development Center, Canada (HRSDC), they no longer need to wait for their PR Card before they can travel and work. A visa and work permit is issued to the individual from his country of origin which enables him to comfortably work.
Although this person still has the status of a temporary resident he can still be working while waiting for his application for a permanent resident status to be approved.
