Breaking News: Canada Will Accept 55.300 New Immigration Applicants

Friday, November 2, 2012

From cic.gc.ca:

Toronto, November 2, 2012 — Today, Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney announced that by the end of 2013, Canada’s immigration system will be transformed from one that was plagued by backlogs into one that is fast, flexible, and responsive to the labour market.
Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) announced today it will admit up to 55,300 persons in the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) category in 2013. Combined with previous actions taken to manage the backlog, this means by the end of 2013 we will be able to process new applications as they are received – a “just in time” system – and aim to process them in less than a year, instead of up to eight years under the old FSWprogram. In addition, CIC expects to clear the FSW applications received to date by the end of 2014, three years earlier than originally expected.
This will allow for the introduction of an Expression of Interest (EOI) system to be put in place for FSW and possibly other economic immigration streams. CIC is moving to a just-in-time system that recruits people with the right skills to meet Canada’s labour market needs, fast tracks their applications, and gets them working in a period of months, instead of years.
“The Government’s number one priority remains the economy and job growth,” said Minister Kenney. “Immigration backlogs are detrimental to our ability to attract the world’s top talent. With the decisive actions we’ve taken to tackle the backlog, we will finally be able to select immigrants who better meet the needs of the Canadian labour market. We will aim to process their applications in less than 12 months.”
The volume of FSW applications has been a longstanding dilemma, since the number of applications received inevitably exceeded the space available within the Immigration Levels Plan each year. As a result, wait times in the FSW program were as high as eight years.
Over the past few years, CIC has taken concrete measures to tackle this problem, including the following:

Under the 2008 Action Plan for Faster Immigration, CIC began to limit FSWapplication intake to priority occupations.

In 2010, the Department added caps to the number of new applications.

In June 2012, the Jobs, Growth and Long-Term Prosperity Act eliminated most of the remaining FSW applications received before February 27, 2008.

In July 2012, CIC issued a temporary pause on new FSW applications, excluding candidates with a qualifying job offer or those applying under the PhD stream.

Taken together, these efforts have dramatically reduced the total number of people waiting in the FSW backlog from a height of 640,000 people in 2008 to approximately 100,000 today, even with new applications received since the 2008 Action Plan.
“By tackling the backlog to make way for a faster, more flexible just-in-time immigration system, newcomers to Canada will be able to fully participate in the economy more quickly,” said Minister Kenney. “Immigration plays a vital role in our country’s long-term prosperity. By improving our economic immigration system, we can ensure that Canada is competitive on the world stage.”
In 2013, CIC plans to admit between 53,500 to 55,300 Federal Skilled Workers, including their spouses and dependants. CIC intends to lift the current pause on FSW applications in 2013, when the new selection criteria are expected to take effect. The final regulatory changes will be available in the Canada Gazette later this year.

Tagalog Is Canada’s Fastest Growing Language

Monday, October 29, 2012

Here is a News article from Manila Bulletin written by Roy Mabasa.

Tagalog is now the fastest growing language in Canada, according to a new census undertaken by the Canadian government.

Results of the 2011 Census of Population: Linguistic Characteristics of Canadians released by Statistics Canada (StatCan) further showed that Tagalog is now the fifth most common non-official language spoken in Canadian households.

“Nearly 279,000 people reported speaking Tagalog most often in 2011, up from 170,000 five years earlier,” the survey said.

StatCan noted “the home languages showing the strongest growth between 2006 and 2011 were primarily Asian,” and the “the population that reported speaking the Philippine-based language Tagalog increased by 64 percent, the highest growth.”

Survey results show that Vancouver has one of the largest Canadian populations that speak Tagalog with 47,600 using it as their primary language at home in 2011.

Also, Tagalog is now the most common immigrant home language in Edmonton and the second most common in Calgary, after Punjabi.

More than 200 languages were reported in the 2011 Census of Population as a home language or mother tongue.

The top 10 immigrant languages spoken most often at home in 2011 were: Punjabi, Chinese, Cantonese, Spanish, Tagalog, Arabic, Mandarin, Italian, Urdu, and German.

In his report to the DFA, Philippine Ambassador to Canada Leslie Gatan said “Canada is some kind of a promised land as economic growth in Western Canada has created a wealth of new opportunities for Filipinos and many new immigrants are travelling to Edmonton, Winnipeg and Regina for jobs.”

There are many Pinoy Immigrants in Canada now. Do you want it to? Canada will be open to 350 professions this coming January 1, 2013.

Canada Crack Downs on Marriage Fraud

There is ongoing measures to stop marriage fraud in Canada. As part of it, new measures will be implemented related to spouse sponsorship visa application.

Certain sponsored spouses will now be required to live in a ‘legitimate relationship’ with their sponsor for two years after receiving Permanent Residency. If this is not adhered to, Permanent Residency status may be revoked. These measures apply to all applications received on or after October 25th, 2012.

The regulations apply to couples who have been in a relationship for two years or less and who share no children with their sponsor at the time they submit their application. Once Permanent Residency is received in Canada, the couple must continue their relationship for at least another two years.

An exception to the regulations has been put in place for partners suffering abuse and neglect. If evidence of such a relationship can be provided, and the abuse stems directly from the sponsor, the two-year relationship requirement will be waived.

“I have consulted widely with Canadians, and especially with victims of marriage fraud, who have told me clearly that we must take action to stop this abuse of our immigration system,” said Immigration Minister Jason Kenney. “Sometimes the sponsor in Canada is being duped and sometimes it’s a commercial transaction. Implementing a two-year conditional permanent residence period will help deter marriage fraud, prevent the callous victimization of innocent Canadians and help us put an end to these scams.”
