citizenship: Refugees may face extra hurdles, according to Globe and Mail. Not the legal kind – they are permanent residents on their way to citizenship, with the right to work, open bank accounts and open businesses – but situational. And getting a job in the first place is more difficult if your name is Samir, rather than Matthew. In addition to the anxieties of immigrating to a new home, they may be dealing with grief and trauma. Refugees may not have all their belongings, academic transcripts and evidence of professional credentials and work experience. Some have been unemployed or working survival jobs since Syria civil war began.
