Permanent Resident Visa

A Permanent Resident Visa allows a person to live and work in a country indefinitely, similar to being a long-term resident, but without citizenship rights. It usually requires meeting specific eligibility criteria, such as employment skills, family connections, or refugee status. Holders of this visa can enjoy many benefits like healthcare and education, but they do not have the full political rights of citizens. Staying in the country long-term may require maintaining residency conditions, and permanent residents can often apply for citizenship after fulfilling certain requirements.
