Immigrate to Canada from Dhaka
Dhaka is Bangladesh's capital and economic engine, home to its largest concentration of IT professionals, engineers, doctors, garment-sector managers and university students. Many of them already have relatives in Scarborough and the wider Greater Toronto Area, which hosts the largest Bangladeshi-Canadian community in the country, so Canada is often the first destination they consider when planning to emigrate.
Applications from Dhaka are processed through IRCC's Singapore visa office, with biometrics collected at VFS Global Dhaka. Officers reviewing capital-city files pay close attention to proof of funds, the source of those funds, employment and salary records, and academic credential assessments. Inconsistencies between bank statements, tax records and stated income are the most common reason Dhaka applications stall or are refused.
