Can I live in Canada as a Greek citizen with a Canadian ETA?

Unfortunately, the Canada Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) does not allow you to live in Canada as a Greek citizen. An eTA only allows temporary stays in Canada for up to six months for tourism, business, transit, or medical treatment. If you want to live in Canada, you are required another type of immigration status, such as a work permit, study permit, or permanent residence.

Here are the reasons why you don't have enough eTAs to live in Canada.

Limited stay: The eTA is valid for a total of five years and can be used for up to six months for each entrance. Living in Canada entails a longer stay than that.
Purpose of visit: Canada eTAs are provided for particular objectives like tourism, business, and public transit, not for the goal of obtaining permanent residency in Canada.
Employment restrictions: The eTA does not grant permission to work in Canada.

Here are some possible immigration routes for Greek citizens who want to live in Canada:

Express Entry is a points-based method that takes into account variables such as age, education, job experience, language ability, and others. You may be eligible for permanent residency in Canada if you have the necessary points.
Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs): Every province and territory in Canada has its own PNP program aimed at recruiting talented workers and businesses. For qualifying individuals, these programs provide a speedier path to permanent residency than Express Entry.
Work permits: You can apply for a work permit if you have a job offer in Canada. This permits you to work in Canada for a certain company and a set period.
Study permits: If you want to study in Canada, you must apply for a study permit. This allows you to study at a recognized Canadian educational institution and may lead to further immigration prospects.
