Hello ym00,

That would all depend on your work experience and skills. Any kind of permanent residency is based on a point system and perhaps a visa under the Skilled Worker's Program.

If you have no marketable skills, are a single mother and no job prospects the government would assume you'll eventually depend on government assistance and wouldn't issue a visa for that very reason.
