Canada Starts New Measures To Make Processing Of Immigration Applications Go Faster

One of the many things that has made a lot of people stop their plans of moving to a new country is how slow the processing of applications is. Many individuals are really interested in moving to a new country as immigrants but it's how long the processing time that discourages them from doing so. However, those who are really set on being an immigrant in a new country like Canada will do everything that it takes to be able to meet the requirements and are patient enough to wait for the results of their application.

 

It is surely good news when Canada’s immigration minister Sean Fraser has recently announced the new plans that the country has with regards to the processing of immigrant applications. He mentioned that these new plans would help keep the processing back on track and make the immigration system in the country even better. This means that things would go more smoothly and faster and those who are working on being immigrants in the country would benefit a lot from this change.

 

Making processing times shorter

 

To be able to make processing time shorter, the government has actually allocated a total of $85 million in its 2021 budget. This would allow the agency to have a reduction in processing times in the entire Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada. Aside from this, Justin Trudeau, the prime minister of Canada, has also told Fraser to work on the reduction of processing times.

 

Fraser has mentioned that with the budget given to this endeavor, the country would be able to make the processing of applications faster. The agency is hoping to be able to return to fast processing standards for various permits including study permits and work permits as well as for renewal of permanent resident cards. The target for this would be by the year’s end. The budget would also be working on the reduction of processing times for applications for proof of citizenship as well as for visitor visas.

 

The target

 

In 2021, the IRCC was able to work on more than 500,000 applications for permanent resident visas. According to Fraser, for the first three months of 2022, the target would be to work on 147,000 applications for permanent resident visas to Canada. This number would be twice as much as what has been processed for the same period a year ago. The country is really ramping up on the processing of applications and this sure is a good thing for both the country and the applicants.

 

Aside from this, this February, Canada would also be introducing the Permanent Residence Application Tracker which would be used for spouses and for dependents for them to see the status of their application online. This would allow them to know how things are going and what is already happening to their application to Canada.
