300,000 Immigrants to be allowed entry into Canada in 2017

Let the festivities begin”, says Canada for immigrants and their families. On the basis of the report published by Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada, John Mccallum has come to the conclusion of considerably increasing the base number of immigrants into Canada. 300,000 more immigrants will be provided with a Canada PR in the coming year.

Skilled Immigration will witness a hike in the total number of immigrants taken through the program. Skilled Immigration has been Canada’s one stop source for talented individuals. Augmenting skilled workers will definitely behoove Canada and its citizens. Not only skilled workers but their families will also be able to avail most amount of benefit from the recent announcements.

Candidates can apply through:

  • Express entry program
  • Povincial Nominee Program
  • Family migration
  • Business Migration
  • These routes provide a fast track service for candidates who score high. The scores are allowed on the basis of
  • eligibility criteria such as:
  • Age
  • Work Experience
  • Educational Qualification
  • Language Proficiency
  • Financial statement

Maintaining the high level of refugee influx had held Canada back from substantially augmenting the number of immigrants. Immigration, in the opinion of Rachel Blaney, is good for Canada’s economy and the government should be taking more ambitious steps towards this. There are high hopes that the base number will be further increased in the coming years as John Mccallum was noted saying, “We do it well, but I think we could learn to do it better.”
