Mr. Jain, was recently quoted in the Toronto Star regarding the surge in Americans looking to move to Canada following the 2024 U.S. election.
Jain emphasized how the political climate south of the border is driving many Americans to consider a fresh start in Canada. He pointed out, “The interest we’re seeing from U.S. citizens is unprecedented. It’s not just a passing trend—it’s a real migration wave fueled by uncertainty.”
He highlighted that, while Americans have certain advantages in the Canadian immigration process, including ease of travel and language proficiency, the pathway to permanent residency is still complex. “It’s not as simple as just packing a bag and crossing the border. U.S. citizens need to understand that permanent residency is not guaranteed—there are multiple criteria they must meet,” said Jain.
Jain also discussed some of the most popular routes for U.S. immigrants, such as work permits under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA), Express Entry for skilled workers, and family sponsorship for those with Canadian ties. He stressed that while these pathways exist, the demand for permanent residency in Canada is high, and the government’s plans to reduce immigration levels in 2025 will likely make the process more competitive.
For those considering moving north, Ravi Jain encourages careful planning and seeking expert guidance. “The process is feasible, but it requires the right approach,” he added.
