Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has recently updated its data on immigration inventories and backlogs. This update sheds light on the current state of applications for permanent residence, temporary residence, and citizenship approvals in Canada.
As of the latest update, IRCC manages 2,220,000 applications across all its inventories. This encompasses applications for permanent residence, temporary residence, and citizenship. According to the new data, 60.4% of these applications are within the service standards set by IRCC.
IRCC has set an ambitious goal to process 80% of applications within their service standards. However, it’s important to note that some complex cases may require a more comprehensive assessment, potentially leading to longer processing times.
Breaking down the numbers further, 43.7% of temporary residence requests—which include applications for visiting, studying, or working in Canada—are currently in backlog. For permanent residency applications, 40.3% are exceeding the service standards, highlighting a significant portion that requires more attention. Additionally, 17.1% of citizenship applications are also surpassing the expected processing times.
These statistics underscore the ongoing challenges faced by IRCC in managing and processing a high volume of immigration applications. The department is continually working towards improving its processing times and reducing backlogs to better serve applicants.
IRCC’s commitment to processing 80% of applications within service standards reflects their dedication to efficient and timely immigration processes. As they work towards achieving this goal, applicants are encouraged to stay informed about the status of their applications through official IRCC channels.
The latest update from IRCC highlights both the progress and ongoing challenges in processing immigration applications. With a significant portion of applications within service standards, IRCC is making strides in managing its inventories. However, the backlogs in temporary residence, permanent residency, and citizenship applications indicate areas where continued efforts and improvements are necessary.
