Immigrate from Pakistan to Canada

A Question I received recently from a prospective client in Italy.

I am originally from pakistan but I lived in italy last 11 years in regular position. If i want to immigrate to Canada so what I can do?

To immigrate to Canada you first have to qualify under one of the available immigration programs; Skilled Workers class, Business Class, Self Employed or Family Class (If you have a spouse in Canada to sponsor you).Residing in Italy legally could help you in the sense that your application can be processed in Italy and the processing there could be faster than that of the Islamabad Office that is considered to have a huge backlog.
