Quick Insights into Canada's Immigration Timelines

Are you dreaming of moving to Canada? Here's a simple breakdown of how long it might take. Canada has many ways to move here, like job skills, family ties, or special situations. The government, IRCC, can tell you how long each way usually takes.

How Fast Can You Move?

• For Work: If you're moving for a job, it can take about six months if everything's done online.
• For Family: If you're joining a family, it might take about a year.
• First-Time PR Card: Getting your first permanent resident card? That's about two months.

How's IRCC Doing?

IRCC tries to get most stuff done in the time they say. Here's a quick look:

• Most work applications are on time.
• For family joining, about 2 out of 3 make the cut.
• First PR cards are primarily on time, too.

What Does This Mean for You?

Knowing these times helps you plan your move better. Make sure your application is complete to avoid delays, and now, you have a better idea of when you'll start your new life in Canada!
