LIVING IN CANADA

For UK citizens seeking to move to Canada, the government prioritises skilled workers through its economic immigration programs, but there are other options available. Visitors can stay in Canada for up to 6 months without a visa, and those with Canadian citizen family members may be eligible for a Super Visa allowing extended stays of up to 5 years.

If you’re interested in permanent residency, you may receive an invitation to apply through the Parent and Grandparent Sponsorship Program. Alternatively, moving to Canada before retirement, working and establishing residency, or starting or buying a business in Canada, are options for a permanent solution.

Canada has a universal healthcare system accessible to certain types of people including permanent residents, Canadian citizens, some foreign workers on work permits and some international students. If you are eligible then you can apply for public health insurance that will cover most healthcare services.

Not all temporary visa holders are eligible for public insurance and some temporary visa holders, such as those in Canada under the International Experience Canada Program are required to have private health insurance that covers them for their entire stay.

You can apply for a temporary international driving permit or exchange your UK licence – each province issues its own driving licence, so you should contact your provincial government.

If you’re asked for a letter authenticating, certifying or validating your UK driver’s licence, you should contact your UK issuing office (eg the DVLA)

stability, and show intention to return to the UK after your permit expires. Learn more about Canadian work permits

The cost of moving to Canada from the UK varies depending on the immigration route that you are applying for and several other factors so it can be difficult to estimate exactly how much money you will need. However, the costs that you should consider include:

➤ The application fee for your immigration application, including processing fees
➤ The permanent residence fee (if you are applying for permanent residency)
➤ The settlement funds you may be required to prove that you have
➤ The cost of transportation to Canada
➤ Your cost of living
➤ The cost of medical insurance if you are required to have it
➤ The cost of hiring a legal representative to assist you with your application


If you plan to bring a dependent child or partner with you to Canada then you should also consider the costs associated with this including the additional application fees.

When relocating from the UK to Canada, the expenses can differ based on the visa category or stream you qualify for. For a working holiday visa (International Experience Canada programme) or a standard work permit, the fee is $172 CAD per person, plus $100 CAD for an open work permit, which is required for Working Holiday permits but not Young Professional and International Co-op (internship) permits.

When arriving through one of the skilled worker programmes, the main applicant’s fee is $1,365 CAD, with an additional $1,365 CAD if your spouse/partner is joining you. Each dependent child incurs a fee of $230 CAD.

When a Canadian family member sponsors you, the cost is $1,080 CAD for each adult applicant and $155 CAD for every dependent child. These fees do not cover the $515 CAD Right of Permanent Residence fee (RPFR), which is required upon approval of a permanent residence application, and there are also specific savings requirements (referred to as ‘settlement funds’) for when you arrive in Canada. If you do not secure a job before you arrive, you will need a significantly larger amount of settlement funds.
