Updated: Apr 10

A 2023 Guide to Immigrating as a Business Administrative Assistant to Canada


As a business administrative assistant, you play a vital role in ensuring the smooth operation of businesses and organizations. With Canada's thriving economy and growing business sector, immigrating as a business administrative assistant in 2023 presents numerous opportunities for professional growth and success. In this blog post, we'll discuss the steps to immigrate to Canada as a business administrative assistant and provide information on registration (if any) across different provinces. Finally, we'll explain how Immigrative can assist you throughout the process.


A Guide to Traveling Outside Canada as an International Student

Step 1: Assess Your Eligibility


Before starting your immigration journey, it's important to evaluate your eligibility. Canada uses a points-based system called the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) to assess potential immigrants. Factors such as age, education, language proficiency, work experience, and adaptability are all considered in the CRS.

As a business administrative assistant, you should:

  • Hold a post-secondary diploma or degree in a relevant field.

  • Demonstrate proficiency in English or French by taking a language test such as IELTS, CELPIP, or TEF.

  • Have relevant work experience in an administrative capacity.


Step 2: Choose the Right Immigration Program


Several immigration programs cater to skilled workers, including the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) under Express Entry, the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), and the Atlantic Immigration Pilot (AIP). Research each program to determine which one best suits your situation.


Step 3: Registration Requirements


While business administrative assistants do not require specific registration or licensing to work in Canada, some employers may prefer candidates with professional certifications. Obtaining a certification, such as the Certified Administrative Professional (CAP) designation, can enhance your employability and demonstrate your commitment to professional development.


Step 4: Create Your Express Entry Profile


If you decide to apply through Express Entry, create an online profile that includes information about your skills, work experience, language proficiency, education, and other relevant details. Based on this information, you'll receive a CRS score.


Step 5: Await Your Invitation to Apply (ITA)


The Canadian government conducts regular Express Entry draws, inviting the highest-scoring candidates to apply for permanent residence. If you receive an ITA, you'll have 60 days to submit your application for permanent residence.


Step 6: Prepare Your Application and Supporting Documents


After receiving an ITA, gather the necessary supporting documents, such as:

  • Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) report

  • Language test results

  • Employment reference letters

  • Valid passport

  • Police clearance certificates

  • Proof of funds

Ensure that all documents are accurate and up-to-date to avoid delays or rejection of your application.


In summary, Immigrating to Canada as a business administrative assistant in 2023 offers a fantastic opportunity to advance your career in a country with a diverse and thriving economy.
