With a growing backlog, particularly in the FSW category, individuals with the skills and experience that Canadian employers want, wait years to be admitted. We must have an immigration system that effectively balances Canada's own needs with its popularity as a destination. That is why the Government of Canada proposed changes to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA). On June 18, 2008, these changes became law.

Until these amendments to IRPA, applications in the largest backlog—federal skilled workers—used to be processed in the order they were received, regardless of whether the applicants' skills or professions would enable them to find a job in Canada.

As you may be aware, on November 28, 2008, Minister Kenney announced an Action Plan for Faster Immigration. It included issuing instructions to visa officers reviewing new applications under the FSW Program. The first set of Ministerial Instructions (MI-1) applied to applications received on or after February 27, 2008, up to June 25, 2010. On June 26, 2010, Minister Kenney announced changes to the FSW Program and a new set of instructions (MI-2).

Under MI-1, CIC used this new authority under immigration law to control the type of applications received, but not the number. The number of applications received exceeded the ability to process them in a timely way. CIC introduced caps on June 26, 2010 on the FSW program as part of MI-2. We have limited the intake of new FSW applications to better match the number that we can actually process within the annual levels plan tabled in Parliament. FSW applications under MI-2 are processed on a priority basis.

CIC has received enough FSW applications since February 27, 2008, to reach immigration levels for the next two years. Unfortunately, it will take longer to process those submitted under the first set of instructions (between February 27, 2008 and June 25, 2010) than originally projected. This number represents more than twice the number of projected admissions under the program in 2011.

The Department's goal is to make the immigration system more responsive to labour market needs. By giving priority to FSW applications received on or after June 26, 2010, CIC is responding to the most urgent labour market needs first. The length of time it takes to finalize an application under this program varies from one visa office to another since visa offices face different challenges. CIC continues to work towards global service standards and the use of departmental standard forms to minimize such regional variations as much as possible.

I want to assure you that the Department closely monitors backlog and processing times, and continues to explore new ways to improve service while maintaining the integrity of Canada's immigration program.

Super visa only for those who can afford it

Published On Fri Dec 30 2011\


Felix Zhang was thrilled when Ottawa launched a “super visa” last month to allow parents and grandparents of newcomers to visit Canada and stay here for up to two years.

But the pricetag for the mandatory health insurance required under the program is a huge obstacle for the Zhangs and many other immigrant families.

The private insurance typically costs $2,000 to $4,000 depending on which company is writing the policy and the age and medical history of the insured.

For Zhang, a Toronto IT manager, said those premiums are beyond the reach of even middle-class immigrants like him.

“My parents are in good health and don’t need that. I am more than willing to pay for their health insurance in Canada, but not for something unnecessary,” said Zhang, co-founder of Sponsor Our Parents, a self-advocacy group. “This is so expensive that only the rich need to apply.”

At the same time, Ottawa has stopped accepting new sponsorships for permanent residence until 2014, hoping to cut the current backlog of 165,000 parents and grandparents by half.

And the department is trying to whittle down the list in other ways. Just this month, all sponsors in the backlog were told they had only 90 days to provide personal information and documentation of the sponsored applicants – materials not usually required until later in the process.

“They have asked for a lot of information and materials such as birth certificates. Some parents were born long time ago and don’t have birth certificates. They may not be able to get it on time,” said Zhang.

“And the (immigration) letter says if they don’t receive the information in 90 days, they will consider the applicant is no longer interested in coming here and reject the application.”

In announcing the first super visa issued at the Canadian mission in Manila this month, Kenney said he was pleased with the “positive response” to the program.

“With the super visa, we have taken a common sense approach that allows parents and grandparents to spend extended periods of time with their loved ones in Canada, while at the same time acting responsibly in protecting Canadian taxpayers,” he said.

However, MP Kevin Lamoureux, immigration critic for the Liberals, said the super visa is simply a political maneuver by the Conservative government “to avoid a backlash.”

“It irks me that they launched the super visa when they announced to put the freeze on the sponsorship of parents and grandparents,” said Lamoureux. “The health insurance is (out of) good intent, but it is so unaffordable that it is impossible for people to get the visa.”

Marriage in Canada while still on Student Visa! January 3, 2012

Dos and Don'ts to plan your marriage as an immigrant on student visa in Canada.

There is no doubt that you, like many other students, must have entered Canada with a student visa and while you were smoothly sailing towards that desired degree or diploma, you met the love of your life in whom you see a dream life partner. This might be an altogether strange state of affairs for you and if this looks a likely situation in your case, you must know about the proceedings in case of marriage in Canada while you are here on a student visa. Considering this situation, you must know that you will have to seek a marriage visa for the purpose.

It will get easier for you particularly if your student visa is going to expire, but if it is not so, you will have to wait longer for the marriage visa. In either of the cases, the most sought after thing for you should be to gather ample evidence to foretell your meeting with this love prospect and how things proceeded during past two years. You will have to collect every piece of material that suffices your case to that prospective marriage. This comprise of every bit of document such as the first mail correspondence or personal interaction that led to series of dates with him or her, how the intimacy developed, mutual photographs or such snaps that include family members from one or both sides, phone/hotel bills, etc.

Visa formalities about Canada are largely identical to what they are US. For getting your marriage visa application processed in Canada, you must have certificate of a sound financial situation as it is one of the most desired documents for immigration aspirants or those already living in Canada. This is done only to confirm that you are financially capable to manage a living in Canada after marriage and will not be reliant on or would seek any government aid. Other documents in support for marriage visa formalities are proof of your citizenship and a confirmation of you being unmarried.

Just in case, the waiting period before your student visa tenure completes and marriage visa is yet to arrive, the time in between can be well utilized to plan out the marriage necessities. In fact, these too add up to strengthen your case. From finalizing marriage hall to preparing list of invitees and from buying ornaments to deciding a honeymoon destination, you can start pushing things early. However, you cannot finalize the marriage date because this aspect relies upon how the marriage visa formalities go on and the officials at Canada immigration prioritize your marriage visa.

Looking to the overall feel about Canada immigration services and the number of visa applications received every year, it is much evident that many individuals around the globe are desirous for immigration here. If you are already in Canada with a student visa and looking forward to getting married, you can be optimistic for getting a timely marriage visa and then get the wedding bells ring soon after – provided if you qualify!
