Resettling in Canada as a refugee can be full of anticipation, hope and challenges.
It’s helpful to know what to expect and what services and support are available to you as a resettled refugee to help you get settled in Canada.
Before you arrive, you can take Canadian Orientation Abroad training from the International Organization for Migration. This will help you learn more about Canada and how to prepare for travel.
When you first arrive in Canada as a resettled refugee, an organization funded by the Government of Canada or your private sponsors will help to meet your most immediate needs. They will greet you at the airport, provide you with a temporary place to stay and help you find a permanent home. They will also help you open a bank account, get your kids registered for school, and learn how to get around your new community.
As a refugee resettling to Canada, you can also get free settlement services to help you to adapt and succeed in your new community.
These services are provided by organizations funded by the Government of Canada’s Settlement Program, and can help you:
• create a personalized settlement plan based on your own needs and strengths, with referrals to groups or organizations that can help you
• learn more about life in Canada
• learn English or French
• find a job, build your professional network and advance your career development
• connect with other newcomers and Canadians in your community
