Settlement

happy family reunion at airport

Family comes first. With every decision in life, we always consider our family, but sometimes they are affected more than we think. When my wife and I decided that I should come to Canada, it was a really tough decision. From the time I started my application to the time of sponsoring my family, it was really hard. It was such a relief when my family finally came. Life is challenging but becomes easier with your family by your side.

As we start our new life here in Canada, we are doing our best to prosper. We are thankful to have the support from the government. It has been really helpful from the Welcome Center to the LINC program to enhance my knowledge in English. I hope the government will continue to support this program. There are so many newcomers who will benefit from this program. My family is one of them.
