The federal government announced that two hundred thousand additional inland permanent residence spaces set for 2027 will assist workers chosen by local territories along with humanitarian applicants. The measure also includes individuals who previously submitted applications through specific pathways.
- Start-up Visa Program
- Self-Employed Persons Program
- Agri-Food Pilot
- Home care workers pathways
- Family Class pathway
- Hongkonger pathways
- Ukrainian nationals with family members in Canada pathway
Immigration authorities released the specific details on a newly launched official portal. The policy breaks down these specific transition measures into two main cohorts.
For the primary economic cohort, up to one hundred thousand spaces are reserved for workers qualified via provincial nomination programs alongside foreign nationals waiting on decisions under specified economic streams.
The secondary allocation of up to one hundred thousand spaces will process all remaining applications under:
- the Hongkonger pathways; and
- the Ukrainian nationals with family members in Canada pathway
It will also handle select applications for:
- the approved-in principle humanitarian and compassionate applicants; and
- spouses, common-law partners, and children of Canadian citizens and permanent residents.
Eligible candidates do not need to perform any extra steps to gain consideration. These extra allocations come in addition to the standard annual base admissions target set for that period.
