Applying from Bangladesh

Visitor Visa for applicants from Bangladesh

Applicants from Bangladesh most often come to Canada as students and skilled workers, later transitioning to permanent residence through the Canadian Experience Class. A Police Clearance Certificate is issued by the Bangladesh Police and must be legalised; academic credentials from public and private universities are assessed through an Educational Credential Assessment. Proof of funds should show a stable financial history, and study plans should explain the choice of program clearly.
