Canada immigration policy: PR to get easier for semi-skilled workers

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has proposed a change to the Immigration and Refugees Protection Act (IRPA). "This change aims to create a new permanent economic immigration class for workers with experience and training at the Training, Education, Experience, and Responsibilities (TEER) levels 4 and 5," IRCC said.

The goal, according to the department, is to modernise the economic immigration system by allowing permanent residency for candidates with a broader range of skills and experience. It addresses a longstanding need to recognise the contributions of individuals who have gained valuable Canadian work experience but have previously faced challenges in securing permanent status.

"Indian professionals must showcase their unique qualifications and experiences to capitalise on opportunities within Canada's dynamic job market," says Abhijit Zaveri, Director & Founder, Career Mosaic.

More details about this new class and pathways will be shared this autumn in the Canada Gazette, Part I, followed by a publication in Part II. This is part of the Forward Regulatory Plan for 2024-2026.
