New Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) data shows that 124,950 temporary residents changed to PR in 2022.
The numbers show permanent residence changeovers among those people who previously held a study permit, work permit under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP), or work permit under the International Mobility Program (IMP). These programs may offer possible permanent residents with a benefit when they prefer to apply for PR.
Information from Statistics Canada recommends that temporary residents have recognized origins in their societies and are able to mix into to the labour force more simply.
Moreover, they might extend their English or French knowledge by spending time in Canada before applying for PR, which puts them in a place to earn more than those candidates who speak neither language before or after landing in Canada.
Economic Immigration Programs Can Help With TR To PR Change
Various economic immigration programs honour candidates with Canadian experience. For instance, an applicant within the Express Entry application organization system will obtain extra points in the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) for having Canadian work or study experience.
Prominent pathways to PR contain provincial economic immigration programs such as the Atlantic Immigration Program or the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot. There are also programs that target specific labour lacks such as caregiver ways.
Lower TR to PR Transitions Than 2021
The number of temporary residents who became PR in 2022 is less than the 191,360 in 2021. For example, 157,695 people who were in Canada as part of the IMP changed to permanent residents and 10,985 came from the TFWP. Study permit holders accounted for 22,680 of new PR .
During the COVID-19 epidemic, border closures and travel limitations made it harder for newcomers to migrate as permanent residents from overseas. IRCC then turned its goal on possible PRs previously living in Canada. One measure arisen in February 2021 when IRCC held its largest-ever Express Entry draw of 27,332 applicants in a CEC-only draw.
