Learn About Settlement.Org

Purpose

The Settlement.Org website provides newcomers with information and resources to settle in Ontario, Canada.

Background

Settlement.Org does this in 3 ways:

  • Good, accurate, reliable and timely content
  • Links to excellent sites with authoritative information
  • Referrals to local services

Settlement.Org provides an electronic community where newcomers can get information, read relevant news, ask their questions and share their experiences with others, and access a database of community organizations.

Settlement.Org is open to everyone and is used most frequently by newcomers, settlement workers and the general public.

Please see the FAQs for more information about Settlement.Org.

Questions About Immigrating

While we have general information about how to immigrate to Ontario, Settlement.Org does not have comprehensive information about the immigration application process (for example, for skilled workers, business immigration, visiting, work permits, study permits and so on). Nor are we able to answer questions about how to immigrate in our Discussion Forums. It is simply impossible for us to reply to every request for information about immigrating to Ontario.

We recommend you go to OntarioImmigration.ca for information about immigrating to Ontario.
