- This article is a Stub, and really needs to be expanded to include more useful information.
Before a foreign national becomes a Permanent Resident, three admissibility checks must be completed:

- Medical
- Background
Criminality Check

Medical Check
Applicants for permanent residence must not be a public health risk and (except for spouses, common-law partners, and dependent children) must not place an excessive demand on the Canadian health care system.
