I am getting ready to apply for Canadian PR in Skilled Worker category. I was charged with a DUI a few months ago, but was approved for Diversion. This will allow all charges against me to be dropped in a year, provided I don’t violate conditions of the agreement. How does this affect my chances of getting Canadian PR? Is there anything that I can do to improve my chances? Does your Firm handle cases similar to mine?

Thanks

We can say that in the case of criminal offenses a certificate of rehabilitation may be required from the Canadian Government, prior to an immigration visa being issued. Of those certificates that are granted, they are usually only given after 5 years has passed from the date the applicant has completed the sentence for the offense (such as probation, or prison time).
