Canada still receives the highest number of newcomers from India

 

IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada) has released new data in February 2023 regarding new landed permanent residents (PRs) in Canada and international students last year. The data indicates that Asia remains the largest source of newcomers to Canada, with around 46% of newcomers landing in Canada in 2022 being from Asia.

India continues to be the biggest source of new immigrants to Canada, with more than 1/4th of newcomers being from India. In 2022, 118,095 Indians landed as permanent residents (PRs), which is 6 times higher than the second source of new immigrants, China, which saw 31,815 Chinese nationals landing in Canada as PRs in 2022.

Ontario continues to land the highest proportion of permanent residents in 2022, but comparatively less (-6.7%) when compared to 2021. Ontario is followed by Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan in landed immigrants. Quebec saw an increase of 3.4%, Saskatchewan 2.2%, and Alberta 1.4% as compared to 2021. However, British Columbia experienced -3.1% lesser immigration in contrast to 2021.

In terms of international students, India again tops the list followed by China and the Philippines for new international students landed in 2022. Indian students accounted for more than half of the total of international students entering Canada last year. Furthermore, there were 319,130 international students from India already living and studying in Canada as of December 2022.

Ontario, being the largest province, continues to accommodate more than 400,000 international students. This number is even higher when compared to the total of other Canadian provinces altogether. Moreover, this number is double that of the second leading province, British Columbia. In total, 377,785 international students were attending education institutions in the rest of the Canadian provinces in 2022.

Overall, the data released by IRCC indicates that Canada continues to be a popular destination for both newcomers and international students. With its diverse opportunities, welcoming community, and high-quality education system, Canada offers an attractive option for those looking to start a new life or pursue their academic goals.

WWICS’ Guide on Warning Signs to Spot Fraud Immigration Scammers

 With the globalization, more and more people are moving overseas in search of better education, work and lifestyle opportunities. However, majority of people are not quite aware about the immigration proceedings, therefore, sometimes, they become vulnerable to immigration fraud.

As a team of reliable and leading resettlement service providers, WWICS strives to assist people who wish to live and work overseas following the correct and lawful processes. WWICS is totally aware of the various migration fraud and scams that exist today; therefore, we’d like to help you protect yourself by keeping you well informed about the warning signs to spot a fraud immigration consultant/company.

Check out these warning signs and save your dignity and money

·         Claims of a guaranteed visa

If any visa consultant contacts you, guaranteeing that you can get a visa in no time, it is definitely a scam! No one can guarantee you a visa or even influence the outcome of your application as only the official immigration department of a country can issue you a visa, provided that you meet all the requirements.

·         Offers jobs/opportunities that sounds too good to be true

 If you receive any call or email guaranteeing you a job you didn’t apply for, it can be a scam. No doubt, some companies today have difficulty finding workers because of skill shortages, but that doesn’t mean employers would go around calling or emailing people out of the blue.

·         Calls from people claiming to be an Immigration official

If you ever receive any out of the blue call from someone claiming to be a representative of government body, insisting that there are errors in your application and demand that you pay a fine as soon as possible; hang up immediately. Such types of calls are generally made by scammers as immigration officers do not issue penalty notices or ask for payments over the phone.

·         Consultants who can’t show proof that they’re fit to provide immigration assistance  

WWICS always recommend you to only seek assistance from registered agents as they have sound knowledge of immigration laws and processes. If you’re approached by someone claiming to be a registered visa/migration agent, ask for their Registration Number. Moreover, if they don’t provide you a contract or statement of the fees and services they offer, it is a clear sign that they are unregistered.

The bottom line is that there's no alternative to be careful and up-to-date with latest immigration proceedings. WWICS always recommend you to keep yourself safe by being vigilant and staying on the lookout for these migration frauds and scams.

4 Vital Factors to Look Into To Judge the Worth of Immigration Service Provider

 The cases of immigration fraud are on the rise in the new climate of immigratory uncertainty. Many people are reporting paying a huge amount of money to fraudulent immigration consultants. In such a confusing scenario, WWICS advises you to walk cautiously and check the suitability of the service providers on the 4 important points shared here.

• • Experience

The first thing to check while evaluating an immigration service provider is to look for how long they are offering immigration services in the market. If they are in the business since long, like more than 8-10 years, it somewhat show that they are reasonably good and experienced service providers and so the right choice for you.

• • Registration

Always choose registered visa consultant agents. Such service providers generally have the required skills and expertise to help and guide you. Make sure the representative should be a government licensed immigration adviser with competency standards and follows a professional code of conduct. For instance, the MARA registered agents can be considered right professionals to seek help on Australia immigration programs and proceedings since they are Australian Government recognized consultants.

• • Reviews

Another vital factor to look into to judge the worth of a service provider is customer reviews. Go for service providers about which the most of published reviews, are positive. Check the reviews posted on the quality of services offered by them online. However, you will get both positive and negative reviews. Carefully check all these reviews and come to a mature conclusion.

• Transparency & Flexibility

Checking transparency and flexibility shown could be the key to make a right decision while choosing an immigration representative. Make sure the consultancy offering visa services is really transparent and flexible in its dealing. There should not be any hidden or unpleasant surprises for you from the side of the service provider. While talking about flexibility, we mean that the visa consultants must be quite flexible in their approach and dealings and must be experts at taking fast and good decisions keeping your interest in mind.

WWICS always advises you to hire a competent and qualified immigration representatives or service providers and never retain help from someone who fails to provide you with a written contract. It is very important to keep in mind that getting the wrong legal advice and assistance from ill-equipped sources can have serious consequences.

Canada invited 1002 immigration candidates to apply for permanent residency in new Express Entry Draw

 Express Entry Draw #193: June 23, 2021

Canada continues to conduct program-specific Express Entry round of invitations. In new immigration draw conducted on June 23, 2021, a total of 1002 Express Entry Candidates who previously received a nomination from an Express Entry-aligned Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), received Invitations to Apply (ITAs) for Canadian permanent residency.

The minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) threshold requirement for this draw was 742.

The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) applied a tie break in this draw and the time stamp used was February 18, 2021 at 04:04:56 UTC. That means all PNP candidates with a CRS score of at least 742 who had submitted their profiles in the Express Entry pool before this date & time, received invitations in this draw.

The Express Entry system is Canada’s primary source of skilled foreign workers. It manages the profiles of candidates under three Federal High Skilled economic class immigration programs: Federal Skilled Worker Class, Federal Skilled Trades Class and Canadian Experience Class.

The Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) is the second most popular Canadian immigration program after Express Entry. Most of Canada’s provinces and territories have their own PNP streams (aligned with Federal Express Entry System and not aligned with Express Entry) that allow them to welcome foreign skilled professionals/workers who can help address their local labour market needs.

Candidates, who meet the selection criteria of an Express Entry-aligned PNP stream and successfully receive a provincial nomination invitation, can obtain additional 600 points toward their CRS Scores. This effectively guarantees them an ITA in subsequent Express Entry Draw.

Canada has already invited 82, 715 Express Entry candidates to apply for permanent residency so far in 2021. This is almost twice the number of ITAs issued than at the same time last year.

EXPRESS ENTRY DRAW #181: APRIL 1, 2021

Canada invited another 5000 Canadian Experience Class (CEC) candidates to apply for Permanent Residency in latest Express Entry Draw on April 1.

The minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) Score requirement for this draw was 432, which is a reduction of 17 points than the previous CEC-specific draw held on March 18. This is also the third-lowest CRS cut-off for a CEC draw conducted by Canada during the Coronavirus pandemic.

The Canadian Experience Class (CEC) is an immigration category for foreign workers who have at least one year of full-time (or an equivalent in part-time) skilled, professional or technical work experience in Canada within the last three years and who wish to become permanent residents.

Alberta invited 300 Express Entry candidates with CRS Scores as low as 301 to apply for provincial nomination on March 26

 The Canadian province of Alberta released details of its new Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) draw conducted on March 26.

A total of 300 Express Entry candidates received invitations to apply for a provincial nomination for Canadian permanent residence through the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP) in this invitation round.

In order to receive an invite in this draw, candidates just needed a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score of 301.

Introduced in 2018, the Alberta Express Entry Stream allows the AINP search the federal Express Entry system for candidates who meet its specific eligibility requirements and invites them to apply for a provincial nomination for Canadian permanent residence.

It also provides a pathway to permanent residence for eligible Express Entry candidates with strong ties to the province or who are working in an occupation that supports the province’s “economic development and diversification priorities,” among other factors.

Candidates do not require having any job offers in the province to be invited to apply for a provincial nomination through this Stream. However, AINP generally gives priority to candidates who:

• have a job offer and/or work experience in the province;
• hold a degree from a Canadian post-secondary institution and a valid job offer; or
• have a parent, child or sibling already living in the province

During the current Covid-19 pandemic, AINP is only considering those immigration candidates for nomination who are already living and working in Alberta.

Express Entry candidates with a nomination from Alberta, receive an additional 600 points toward their CRS score, which effectively increase their chances to get an invitation to apply (ITA) for Canadian permanent residence in subsequent Express Entry draw.

Alberta has now invited more than 1000 Express Entry candidates to apply for a provincial nomination so far in 2021.
