Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada
(IRCC) has introduced a policy that exempts some
temporary and permanent resident applicants from
appearing for medical examination as part of the
Canada PR process. The need for the exam has been
waived for at least 180 000 applicants currently
in Canada.

  • Recently, IRCC officials also started to conduct
    telephonic and video interviews for family class
    applicants.
  •  Despite the pandemic and public health
    challenges, the department was able to invite
    over 69,000 spouses, partners, and children by
    2021. With Canada's service modernization efforts
    and the necessary staff support, the country can
    return to the pre-pandemic Canada PR application
    process of 12 months for all new spousal
    sponsorship applications. The IRCC plans to
    switch to 100 digital applications for most
    permanent residence programs on September 23.

  • 85m Funding to Clear Application Backlogs
  •  In 2021, the immigration authorities in Canada
    received funding of 85 million from the Economic
    and Fiscal Update. With this, Canada continues to
    direct its efforts on reducing the application
    inventories accumulated during the pandemic. 
  •  The past few months have witnessed an impressive
    reduction in the pile of applications by a few
    hundred thousand. However, thousands of
    applicants are still awaiting a decision and are
    fed up with the delays.
  •  Canadian immigration officials are trying to
    assure people through regular updates and
    feedback on their application status.

In February 2022, the IRCC launched an
application status tracker tool for permanent
residence applicants, spouse visa candidates, and
dependent children. The tool allowed them to
check their application status online and stay
updated with their visa process. "By spring
2023, we will have expanded this application
status tracker to include seven more permanent
residence and temporary residence programs," the
IRCC wrote. Discover your Canada PR eligibility
