  Breaking News! According to the latest information provided by the Canada Customer Service Center of the WorldWay Immigration Group, Air Canada has announced good news:

 

  Starting June 1, 2018, Chinese citizens traveling on Air Canada and transiting through Montreal International Airport to the United States will no longer need to apply for a temporary Canadian visa.


 

  The following conditions must be met:

 

  ● Citizens of the People's Republic of China holding a valid Chinese passport

  ● Hold a valid U.S. visa

  ● Travel on an approved airline (e.g., Air Canada) entering Canada

 

  Designated airlines:

  Air Canada

  Air Canada Rouge

  Air China

  WestJet

  Cathay Pacific

  China Southern Airlines

  Philippine Airlines

  Jazz Air

  Sky Regional Airlines Inc.

  Air Georgian

 

  ● Direct flights from Shanghai Pudong International Airport or Tokyo Narita International Airport operated by Air Canada

  ● Must hold a confirmed onward ticket to the United States, with the ticket date matching the date of arrival in Montreal

  ● Transit through Montreal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport

  ● Return directly from the United States, and transit on the same day flight to Shanghai Pudong International Airport or Tokyo Narita International Airport

  The brand new visa-exempt transit system in Montreal, Canada

  Allows Chinese travelers to enjoy an efficient and seamless transit experience

 

  Qualified Chinese travelers arriving at Montreal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau Airport will be escorted to a designated lounge and reported to the Canada Border Services Agency at the transit service counter.

 

  Representatives at Montreal Airport will accompany travelers to the departure gate for priority boarding at the scheduled time, and there will be Mandarin-speaking staff available to assist these travelers throughout the process.

 

  As we all know, Canada is a highly developed country that has always been favored by Chinese citizens and is also one of the ideal travel and immigration destinations for many. In recent years, with the rapid development of outbound tourism from China, the scale of mutual visits between China and Canada reached a historical record in 2017. 2018 is the China-Canada Tourism Year, and the Canadian government has introduced various relaxed policies for Chinese tourists.

 

  The "Fast Track Visa Program" is a new policy launched by Canada's visa centers in China.

 

  The visa center will give preferential treatment to applicants over 60 years old, shortening the processing time to within one week to facilitate their travel to Canada for tourism or family visits. Additionally, Canada allows Chinese applicants to use UnionPay for visa application payments and is preparing to cooperate with Alipay.

 

  At the same time, the seven visa centers opened in Canada last year have gradually come into operation, located in Nanjing, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Jinan, Kunming, Shenyang, and Wuhan.

 

  Thus, Canada has now established 12 visa centers in China.


 

  It is evident that Canada is introducing increasingly relaxed visa conditions for Chinese travelers. It is believed that in the future, Canada will attract more Chinese citizens to visit.

 

  As everyone knows, the Manitoba Entrepreneur Immigration Program in Canada, which was closed for half a year, has recently reopened. Due to the online EOI system not being fully developed, there is no minimum score requirement during the transition period, and applicants can be prioritized by submitting their applications first. Experts from the WorldWay Immigration Group indicate that this is a great time to apply for the Manitoba program. For investors who intend to immigrate to Canada and meet the application requirements, please seize the opportunity to submit your application as soon as possible. Early application means early peace of mind, allowing for an earlier arrival in Canada, where children can also enjoy Manitoba's healthcare and educational benefits sooner.

 

  As a leading institution in investment immigration, the WorldWay Immigration Group's project team and documentation team are working closely with our Canadian branch and strong partners in Canada to assist investors in successfully securing spots in the Manitoba Entrepreneur Immigration Program!
