Hello everyone,
Canadian immigration news is moving quickly this summer: Targets exceeded, longer wait times, new rules for language tests, and even a surprising increase in asylum claims from the United States.
At VisapourCanada, our commitment is to provide you with clear and reliable information so that you can anticipate changes and prepare your application stress-free with us.
? What this means for you: The chances of receiving an Invitation to Apply (ITA) are increasing, but the selection process remains highly competitive. It is more important than ever to submit a complete and well-structured application.
Despite progress in certain categories, IRCC is facing a new increase in its application backlog.
Concrete impacts:
? VisapourCanada Advice: Don’t rely solely on the timelines posted online. Prepare solid supporting evidence, keep your documents up to date, and if you’re already in Canada, renew in advance to avoid falling out of status.
Great news: IRCC now accepts the TOEFL Essentials test for permanent residence applications in the economic categories (Express Entry, PNP, AIP, etc.).
Advantages of TOEFL Essentials:
? What this means for you: more flexibility in choosing a language test. For some profiles, this test can save you time and money without compromising your chances.
IRCC has announced enhanced scrutiny of undeclared employment (“cash jobs”).
What we recommend:
If you have held a cash-paid job, make sure you have official proof (contracts, pay stubs, T4 slips, bank statements). Otherwise, do not build your immigration strategy around this type of work experience.
Are you the spouse of a temporary worker or international student?
Are you waiting for your permanent residency?
