Overview
Becoming a permanent resident of Canada is a significant milestone for many immigrants. Permanent residents enjoy many of the same rights and privileges as Canadian citizens, including access to healthcare, education, and the ability to live and work anywhere in Canada. At Nihang Law Professional Corporation, we offer expert legal assistance to help you obtain permanent residency and renew your PR status when necessary.
