"There's just so many hoops, you just have to be really creative with your application process, make sure that you fall into the guidelines," said Joe Teo from inside the HeyOrca! office on Monday. This is a very true statement, which once more underlines the importance of planning your immigration path to Canada and starting the preparations before even coming here on a temporary status as student or worker. As mentioned in the article, government and provinces are working t...owards creating some simplified paths to allow temporary students and skilled workers to transition to permanent status. However, immigration programs still run on generalized rules and guidelines, and will continue to do so for years to come. No matter how talented, skilled and hardworking you are, you must meet eligibility of one immigration program before you may immigrate. The Newfoundland and Labrador government announced two new categories under its provincial nominee program: international graduate entrepreneur and international entrepreneur. They truly are tailored for people to easily transition and start working in the province as soon as possible. We will hope for more programs like this in all provinces. See more

Government of Canada announces historic, multi-year immigration levels plan On November 1, the Government of Canada tabled the 2017 Annual Report to Parliament on Immigration, including the levels plan. The new plan sets out the highest levels of new permanent residents to be welcomed to Canada in recent history. Under the plan, Canada will accept 310,000 new permanent residents in 2018. That number will grow to 330,000 in 2019 and to 340,000 in 2020, trending towards one per...cent of the population. By welcoming more newcomers, the plan aims to support Canada’s economic growth, drive innovation and address labour shortages across the country. Of the 310,000 newcomers for 2018, the plan sets 60 percent of them to come to Canada for work. Increased levels also allow Canada to uphold humanitarian commitments by offering protection to refugees and creating the needed space to reduce backlogs and processing times for families sponsoring spouses, children, parents, grandparents and caregivers. This multi-year plan will help IRCC better prepare for future admissions. It also reflects a continued commitment to ensuring that Canada’s immigration system is well-managed. Longer planning horizons and the gradual increase of immigrants allow the provinces and territories, as well as settlement and integration partners, to plan for the arrival of more newcomers. In 2016, Canada welcomed 296,000 permanent residents nearly 25,000 more than the previous year. The majority of newcomers came for work, but Canada also welcomed more than 62,000 resettled refugees, asylum seekers and people admitted on humanitarian and compassionate grounds, as well as some 78,000 newcomers who were sponsored by their families. http://www.cic.gc.ca/engli/resources/enewsletter/index.asp
