Canada’s immigration system is constantly evolving, and the latest developments could directly impact those planning to immigrate through Express Entry.
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has announced updates to service hours at 35 land border crossings between Canada and the United States. The changes, effective from 12:01 am, reflect a collaborative effort with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to improve border efficiency, security, and resource allocation.
Canada’s Immigration Levels Plan 2025-2027 has just been published. And while immigration targets for permanent residents have decreased to 395,000 for 2025, it’s not all bad news for those hoping to live and work in Canada in the coming years.
In response to the evolving needs of the Canadian immigration system, the Honorable Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada, has unveiled new measures to manage the increase in temporary residents, especially international students and foreign workers.
Individuals who do not typically qualify for permanent residency in Canada may have the opportunity to apply based on humanitarian and compassionate (H&C) grounds, particularly if their education has contributed to their unique situation. Understanding H&C considerations in Canada is crucial, as these grounds are meant for those with exceptional cases. Each application is reviewed individually, with various factors taken into account.
More than double the number of Invitations to Apply (ITAs) were issued in Express Entry draws in 2023 compared to 2022 according to the newly released Express Entry Year-End report for 2023.
The week began with 2 Ontario-OINP draws on June 17, sending out 190 permanent residency invitations under the Foreign Worker and International Student streams.
Canada has unveiled new and improved caregiver pilot programs as the current Home Child Care Provider Pilot and Home Support Worker Pilot near their expiration date.
Immigration Minister Marc Miller has introduced a bill in Canada's parliament to impose a first-generation limit on citizenship by descent. If the bill is passed, children of Canadian citizens born abroad will be able to pass their citizenship to their own children.
In the latest phase of two previously announced immigration pilot programs, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) is now accepting community applications for the Rural Community Immigration Pilot and the Francophone Community Immigration Pilot.
