The Immigration ministers of Canada deliver an update on the country’s key priorities

March 13, 2023

The immigration ministers of Canada delivered an update on the country’s key priorities.
The Forum of Immigration Ministers recently explored ways to achieve shared aims. In their last meeting, the ministers aimed to maximize the effectiveness of the immigration system to meet economic and regional needs, including increasing provincial/territorial (PT) involvement in the selection process.

Proposal for a Multi-Year Provincial Nominee Program and an Atlantic Immigration Program

Significantly, the ministers approved the first multi-year Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) and Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP) plan. This strategy will help provinces and territories plan ahead of time for immigration admissions and settlement. Arlene Dunn, the minister responsible for immigration in New Brunswick, stated on behalf of the provinces and territories that governments and territories are best placed to pick economic immigrants. Minister Dunn stated that expanding the PNP, AIP, and Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot will assist in reducing the IRCC backlog and improve processing times so clients can be better served and their needs met. The strategy calls for a 44% increase in PNP allocations in 2023.

Immigration jurisdiction is shared

The Provincial Nominee Program is a major component of this shared obligation (PNP). With the exception of Quebec and Nunavut, each province has its own PNP via which candidates for permanent residency (PR) can indicate a preference to work and live in a specific province. Québec has its own immigration system.

If the provincial government considers the candidate can easily integrate into the workforce and contribute to the provincial economy, they may award them a provincial nomination. Being nominated does not automatically imply that the candidate is a permanent resident, but it can help strengthen their application to the federal government.

Finally, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) have the final word on how many people are invited to apply for PR under a PNP.

According to the Immigration Levels Strategy 2023-2025, PNP admissions will continue to outnumber federal high-skilled (Express Entry) admissions through 2025.

Immigration drawings are held on a regular basis by provinces and territories. This week, British Columbia, Ontario, and Manitoba held PNP draws, while Quebec held a draw under its own method.

Visitor visa holders can now work and settle in Canada thanks to new policies !

March 2, 2023

Naju Gadhavi

What are the New Changes on work permit holders in Canada, and can I change my visitor visa to a work visa?

Canada has made it possible for individuals who hold a Visitor visa to have the opportunity to work and potentially become permanent residents, this is a major change when it comes to Visitor visa holders to work in Canada in 2023 as the Canadian government has recently on 28th February 2023 announced a new update regarding work permits for foreign visitors who are currently residing in Canada. This temporary policy has been extended for an additional two years, allowing visitors to continue applying for work permits while on a Visitors Visa.

This policy was first introduced in 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which had caused disruptions in international travel and prevented many foreign visitors from returning to their home countries. There were various temporary policies aimed to address this issue by allowing eligible visitors who were already in Canada to easily apply for work permits without having to leave the country.

Under this policy, visitors who meet certain eligibility criteria, such as holding a valid visitor status or having applied for an extension of their visitor status, may be able to apply for a work permit from within Canada.

What are the eligibility criteria for you to work in Canada with a valid visitor visa

The status of your visa should be valid when you apply for a work permit.
Have a valid job offer which is supported by the Labour Market Impact Assessment or LMIA-exempt offer.
Apply for an employer-specific work permit (not later than 28th Feb) and also meet other standard criteria.

Interim-authorization to work in Canada

The interim authorization to work in Canada is designed to help foreign nationals who are already in Canada and have submitted a work permit application, but whose application has not yet been processed. Without the interim authorization, these individuals would not be able to work while their application is being processed, which could cause financial difficulties and other challenges.

Overall, the extension of this temporary policy will provide significant benefits for both foreign visitors and Canadian employers. It will help to address the ongoing challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and enable skilled workers to continue contributing to the Canadian economy while they are in the country.

An LMIA is a document that assess whether the available position can be filled by a Canadian talent. A positive LMIA indicates that there is no Canadian talent available to fill the position and thus you are allowed to hire talents from other Countries.

Now the only issue with LMIA is that it’s a time-consuming process and takes months to process. In the modern times, it is very hard to stand amidst the competing global markets with a long hiring system like this and therefore Global Talent Stream was introduced which helps Canadian employers to bring talent much faster.

Main Reasons to choose Canada as your Study destination for 2023

December 26, 2022

Naju Gadhavi

The government of Canada has opened wide doors for international students as IRCC Canada has released their response to CIMM to take measures for the betterment of overseas students. This change will be very beneficial as even though Canada is a popular destination for all of them, there are still cases where students are placed in a vulnerable situation during their Study Abroad Journey.

There are three main objectives established by IRCC for the benefit of International Students

1. Attracting more international students

2. Ensuring equality through International Students Program

3. Improving service for international students in Study Permit and Immigration Process

Why Study in Canada?

Canada has been a popular destination for students from India for many years, known for its excellent quality of education no matter which province you choose to study in, Now when you move to a foreign country, you face a cultural shock that hinders your experience of your so-called ‘Study Abroad Journey’, but Canada is a land of different ethnicities and therefore, the such dilemma doesn’t arise here.

The number of Study permit holders will increase to approximately 753,000 International students. This means, is there will be more opportunities for students to Study in Canada.

Let’s have a detailed look at the favorable commitments made by IRCC to CIMM:

Expansion of SDS

IRCC has promised an expansion to the SDS which is the Students Direct Stream in which Canada is making it easier for international students from certain Asian and African countries to study in Canada.

PR Through Study Visa (TR to PR)

Exploring how to best promote the transition to permanent residence for international students, particularly those with the skills, experience, and language levels necessary to succeed in Canada is to especially cater to the labor shortage Canada is currently facing.

Improving the Quality of the International Students Program

CIMM highlighted improving the quality of international students’ programs and application process. In response to that, IRCC Committed to reviewing its practices and ensuring equality.

Publish Monthly Data on Backlogs

To help international students track their applications, Canada’s immigration authority has promised to publish monthly data on backlogs. This gives more transparency and one can avoid all the mistakes they have done in prior applications.

Review the selection process

To improve the quality, IRCC will take charge to review the selection procedure of the candidates. That means the applicants will be evaluated based on the criteria more linked to their potential value.

Major benefits for students in 2023 Work for more than 20 hours a week

The biggest and most helpful change which will be the main attraction point to study in Canada is for students to work for more hours than the conventional 20-hour work permit. It has been observed that it is sometimes it is immensely difficult for students to meet their ends and through such permit giving it a sigh of relief to not only the students but also the parents in the home country.
