Gaining PR as a Disabled Person?

[ChocoBar]

Hi all. Sorry if this isn't the right forum, the titles are a bit confusing.

Anyway, I am a physically and mentally disabled person in the USA at the moment. I do not have any SSI or disability assistance here, but I am not physically or mentally capable of performing a job of any kind. From what I understand of the immigration process to Canada, you kind of have to have a job there or something along those lines.

My question is: how would someone like me go about immigrating to Canada if I have no job and cannot perform one at all? Is there a special process for a permanently disabled person? What would I have to do in order to go about this?

No way to immigrate. Would research disability and other programs in the US.

What would change if I were on disability?

Nothing in terms of immigrating to Canada. I believe the previous poster is suggesting ways for you to support yourself in the US.

Being on disability would help you live a better life in the U.S.

As said above, there is no possibility for you to immigrate to Canada.
