Canadian Border Security (CBSA) Practice Exam

Which category is NOT included in the IRCC Categories of Applications?

1. Working

2. Traveling for pleasure

3. Studying

4. Applying for Citizenship

The correct answer is: Traveling for pleasure

Traveling for pleasure is not categorized under the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) applications. The IRCC primarily focuses on immigration and citizenship processes, which include applications for work permits, study permits, and citizenship grants. Working is part of the immigration process where individuals apply for work permits or permanent residency under various programs designed for skilled workers. Studying is covered through study permits, which allow foreign nationals to pursue educational programs in Canada. Applying for citizenship pertains to those seeking to become Canadian citizens after fulfilling the required residency and legal criteria. Traveling for pleasure, while often a reason for entering Canada temporarily, does not fall under the formal application categories established by the IRCC for immigration or status adjustment purposes. Hence, this category is not recognized within the context of IRCC's structured application processes.
