Start Your Immigration Journey Here

Immigrating to Canada involves applying for a visa, either long-, or short-term. At the Battlefords Immigration Resource Centre, we can give you information on what types of Canadian visas there are, and which may be most suitable for the situation.

The Battlefords Immigration Resource Centre can provide assistance to newcomers in settling into life in Saskatchewan.  We are able to offer newcomers access to a variety of services

We can offer assistance to newcomers who would like to continue their post-secondary education, register for English classes or start out by applying for a Study Permit.

We also match newcomers with community-based volunteers to practice English, as well as give information on specialized work-related courses.

Staff may be able to arrange for a translator to be present to help you when discussing:

• Information related to Immigration and Visas, Life Resources or Studying
• Making appointments for the doctor, dentist etc.
• Registering for classes or courses (EAL, work training etc)

Regional Newcomer Gateways are first-stop welcome centres for newcomers arriving to Saskatchewan. Gateways assist newcomers to find the information, resources, services and people they need to make their new life in Saskatchewan a success.

If you have education from another country and would like to put it to use here in Canada, we can help you understand the process of getting it recognized. Many different professions/educations require different processes to become recognized, and our staff can help you determine which the right path is for you.
