From Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

How to apply

There are 3 main steps to apply:

1. Get the application package
2. Pay your application fees
3. Submit your application

Get the application package

After the Province of Quebec has selected you:

• get the application package, which has
  • a guide to help you fill out the forms correctly
  • the forms you need to fill out
• fill out, print and sign the forms

Answer all of the questions carefully, completely and truthfully. There are serious consequences if you misrepresent yourself or hold back information on your application.

Pay your application fees

In most cases, your fees will include:

• processing fees for you and anyone you include on your application
• the Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF)
• biometrics
• third-party fees

You have to pay your fees online(opens in a new tab). 

Biometrics fee

In most cases, you must pay a biometrics fee when you submit your application. Otherwise you may experience delays. The biometrics fee covers the cost of collecting fingerprints and a digital photo.

After you pay the biometrics fee with a complete application, we’ll send you a letter confirming that you need to give your biometrics and where you can go. You must show this letter when you give your biometrics.

You must give your biometrics in person. Make sure to book an appointment if this service is offered. Find a collection point close to you.

Third-party fees

Depending on your situation, you may need to pay third parties for:

• medical exams
• police certificates
• educational credential assessment

Our instruction guide can help you understand which fees apply to you.

Submit your application

Make sure that you do not forget anything. If anything is missing:

• your application won’t be complete
• we’ll send it back to you without processing it
• you will have to fix any errors and resubmit it

Mail your package to the address in the instruction guide.

Do not send your application to any other processing centre or visa office.
