What will Canadian immigration look like? http://www.muchmormagazine.com/2010/12/during-2011-what-will-canadian-immigration-look-like/ Over the past couple of years Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) has changed several of the categories of immigration and tightened up others. As we have previously reported this has led to significant reductions in wait times for people waiting for permanent residency visas. But looking forward into 2011 what will Canadian immigration look like? 2011Canadianimmigrationplan 2011 what will Canadian immigration look like? CIC have already announced that they aim to welcome between 240,000 and 265,000 new permanent residents during 2011 with the majority of those coming via the economic categories. So what is the government going to do to help these immigrants settle into their new country? It is a proven fact that many immigrants earn considerably less than their Canadian-born counterparts. Indeed the thought that there are foreign qualified doctors driving cabs in Toronto is unfortunately a reality. In 2006 CIC announced that they would be investing heavily in settlement and integration services across Canada over the coming years. This has been true and many of these services have received funding for projects such as language proficiency and job training skills. This funding will continue into 2011 to allow even more new immigrants to take advantage of these services. Many people come to Canada with little or no language proficiency. Obviously this is a huge barrier when looking for employment and indeed living day-to-day. The CIC is working with local settlement agencies to provide free language skills training so that these people can better integrate into their new environment and secure work. The second biggest barrier for newcomers is the recognition of their foreign credentials. It is understandable that some professions are regulated and that in order to work in Canada newcomers need to update their skills or bring them in line with Canadian qualifications. After all, an electrician moving from England will not be familiar with Canadian wiring and will need to comply with regulations in order to work. Canada needs to make the transition for these people much clearer and easier. After all it is these very qualifications that allow them to apply for immigration in the first instance, but then once here they cannot practice their chosen profession. Over the past year or so CIC has put into place measures to help potential immigrants and newcomers to have their credentials recognized in Canada. Details of the Foreign Credentials Referral Office (FCRO) can be found at their website: http://www.credentials.gc.ca/. The FCRO can help with not only credential recognition but with other factors that help foreign trained people to succeed in Canada such as language skills, job searches, fact sheets etc. Other areas that CIC are working to improve are people who use the immigration system in fraudulent ways. Two major examples are unscrupulous immigration consultants and marriage fraud. Marriage fraud is a big problem with foreigners marrying Canadians in order to be sponsored and enter the country as permeant residents. Some Canadians and permanent residents are caught out unawares, perhaps meeting someone via travelling or on the Internet. They get into a relationship and then marry, only to find that once the new spouse is safely in Canada the marriage they thought was genuine is no more. Other people enter into this arrangement knowing exactly what they are doing and more often than not money changes hands. CIC has recognized that this is a very big problem and is trying to put measures into place to prevent this from happening. Currently, as soon as a spousal sponsorship is granted they are given permanent residency and as long as they comply with residency requirements they can stay in Canada indefinitely, even if the marriage on which it was granted is no more. CIC is proposing a change to the rules which will include a three year waiting period before a sponsored spouse can become a permanent resident. Similar rules are in place in Australia, United Kingdom and the United States. Unscrupulous immigration consultants are another big problem facing immigrants. The majority of immigration consultants are legitimate and ethical, but unfortunately a few bad apples spoil the pie. Some consultants have been charging fees for immigration services that they either don’t provide or they charge far too much for. CIC will be strengthening the rules for consultants meaning that the current loopholes will be closed. They will be designating a governing body to govern immigration consultants making sure all adhere to strict guidelines. So, CIC is making some significant changes and putting into place several measures which will hopefully benefit potential immigrants and newcomers. The system is far from perfect, but any improvements are welcomed. Hopefully these will help make 2011 a successful immigration year. |

Good morning forumites, I hope that you all had a wonderful Xmas and will have an even better new year.
I sincerely wish that the lengthy immigration process is finally completed for those that have been waiting the longest and that the "brown envelopes" start being delivered in droves. Imagine how nice it would be to have big Thanksgiving and Xmas dinners in Canada, almost like a reunion of sorts. For those that are already there, continue to pave the way. For those not yet there, continue to prepare. As Lizanne says, once you finally reach the last stages, time seems to speed up and you may end up being caught by surprise when you realise that you and the family are nowhere near ready. All the best for 2011. Likkle more... |
