    Do you want to immigrate from Nigeria to Canada? Then this article is for you. Read on!Nigerian immigration to Canada has become increasingly popular in recent years. In fact, Nigeria is one of the main source countries of Canada’s immigrant population; over 15,000 Nigerians immigrated to Canada in 2021

    For many Nigerians, immigrating to Canada presents a wealth of opportunities not available to them in their home country. Political stability, a thriving economy and internationally recognized schools are all factors that make Canada a top destination for Nigerian immigrants.

    Top 5 Easy Ways To Immigrate From Nigeria To Canada

    The following are the easiest and most simplified ways to immigrate from Nigeria to Canada:

    1. Express Entry

    Express Entry is our first pick and the fastest and most popular pathway for newcomers seeking a new life to immigrate from Nigeria to Canada. Express Entry organizes and processes applications for people who wish to immigrate to Canada and acquire Canadian permanent residence.

    Candidates with university or college degrees with skilled work experience and moderate proficiency in English and/or French are ideal candidates. For this reason, Nigerian professionals tend to do well in the Express Entry pool.

    Candidates who qualify for the following programs are also eligible to submit an application under the Express Entry program:

    • Federal Skilled Worker (FSW)
    • Federal Skilled Trades (FST)
    • Canadian Experience Class (CEC)

    The easiest way to find out if you are eligible is to use our free online assessment tool.

    2. Provincial Nominee Program (PNP)

    This is another popular way to immigrate from Nigeria to Canada. Each of Canada’s thirteen provinces and territories operates its own immigration programs, called Provincial Nominee Programs, or PNPs. As the provinces have different populations and economies, their immigration programs are unique and built to fit their economic and demographic needs.

    PNPs are a popular option because they can be the fastest pathway to Canadian permanent residence.

    If you are nominated through a PNP which is aligned with Express Entry, you will receive an additional 600 Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points. This means you are essentially guaranteed to receive an invitation to apply (ITA) for permanent residence in the next Express Entry draw.

    3. Family Sponsorship

    Family Sponsorship is our 3rd on the list of major ways to immigrate from Nigeria to Canada

    Family reunification is a top priority for Canadian immigration. Canada offers a number of immigration programs that give Canadians the opportunity to sponsor their family members to Canada.

    To sponsor a family member as a permanent resident under family class sponsorship, the sponsor must fulfill the following conditions:

    1. Be a citizen or permanent resident of Canada aged at least 18 years.
    2. Reside in Canada, if they are a permanent resident. Canadian citizens can sponsor a family member even when living outside the country. However, he or she must reside in Canada when the sponsored family member becomes a permanent resident of Canada.
    3. Have adequate resources to provide financial support to the sponsored person for the mandated duration.

    Further, the sponsor must comply with additional requirements like not receiving social assistance (except for reason of disability), meeting financial obligations including support for sponsored family members on time, a clean criminal record, etc.

    4. Canada’s Start-Up Visa Program

    If you are an entrepreneur with an innovative business idea, you may be eligible to immigrate from Nigeria to Canada through the start-up visa program.

    Canada is looking for talented entrepreneurs that are interested in starting businesses that will stimulate the Canadian economy while creating employment opportunities for its residents.

    Qualified candidates can come to Canada on a work permit and will be granted Canadian permanent residence once they have established their business.

    5. Other federal economic programs

    If you have a job offer in an in-demand field, or in a rural or Atlantic region of Canada, you may be eligible to apply for permanent residence through another federal economic program. The Canadian government offers various economic pilot programs to fill labour or demographic gaps in certain regions or sectors across Canada.

    If you have a job offer in Canada, contact us to learn more about your immigration options. This is another popular method when trying to immigrate from Nigeria to Canada.

    How much does it cost to immigrate to Canada from Nigeria?

    The cost of immigrating to Canada from Nigeria is generally about $2,300 CAD for a single applicant, or about $4,500 CAD for a couple. This amount will also vary depending on which program you are applying through.

    Keep in mind that this total does not include the settlement funds that most candidates must show to be eligible for Canadian immigration; this amount will vary by family size, starting at around $13,000 CAD for a single applicant.

    Do I need the IELTS to immigrate to Canada from Nigeria?

    If you want to immigrate to Canada from Nigeria, you will almost certainly need to take one of Canada’s official language exams. Almost all Canadian immigration programs require candidates to provide French or English language results from an authorized organization.

    To demonstrate your English language ability, you can take either the IELTS or CELPIP test. Both CELPIP and IELTS have testing locations in Nigeria.

    The Canadian government does not have a preferred test, you can choose whichever one is most convenient for you.

    Which option is right for me?
