A PR visa, or Permanent Resident Visa, allows you to travel to a nation, stay for a period of time, and then seek for citizenship. In some countries, obtaining a PR visa eventually leads to citizenship.

PR visa gives them a sense of security during their stay and provides them with perks that they would not have if they were on a temporary visa.

Except for the right to vote, take a political position, or hold critical government positions, a PR visa holder will have most of the benefits that a citizen of the country has.

How can I get permanent residency?

You will have to go through an application process in order to obtain a PR visa.  However, each country’s application process, qualifying restrictions, and required documents differ. Multiple criteria must be considered when deciding whether or not to apply for a PR visa and where to apply.

Each country has its own immigration criteria and programs to help choose applicants for a PR visa. These include programs that are:

• Skill-based
• Points-based
• Family sponsorship
• Employer-sponsorship
• Business & investment

Most options offer a PR visa for the applicant, his spouse and children. The visa can be converted to citizenship in most cases. Free Education for children, healthcare & retirement benefits & visa free travel are some of the reasons people choose to immigrate.
