If you would like to stay in Canada permanent, then you will have to apply to become a permanent resident. Start reading here to find out if you qualify and how to apply:

No, Canada will not help you with accommodations or provide social assistance once you first become an immigrant. Those who want to immigrate to Canada must show they have sufficient funds to support themselves when they arrive.

So how can i get the immigrant status ? for ex: if i can support myself let say for three months than what should i do in order to become an immigrant to continue with other procedures ?

Thank you very much for your reply i hope i am not bothering you

Regards
Arjan

You really need to read through the link I provided above to find out if you qualify to immigrate. You may want to focus on the Federal Skilled Worker program.

Note that it takes quite a bit of time for immigration applications to be processed - and you can expect to wait anywhere from several months to several years to hear a decision on your application.

you simply dont get immigration because you wish for it. you have to be eligible to become an immigrant and so many other things. Please visit that link thoroughly.

Thanks.
