A Shift in Immigration Policy: TR to PR within Canada

Canada’s Immigration Minister, Marc Miller, announced a significant policy shift on March 21, 2024, favouring temporary residents (TRs) in Canada for their conversion to permanent residents (PRs). The new approach introduces "domestic draws," streamlining the path for TRs to achieve PR status through the Express Entry system. This change emphasizes the value of Canadian work and education experience in enhancing eligibility for permanent residency.
