Program delivery update: Temporary public policies: Temporary Resident to Permanent Resident Pathway

May 26, 2021

New instructions have been created for the Temporary Resident to Permanent Resident Pathway, which is made up of the following temporary public policies:

• Temporary public policy to facilitate the granting of permanent residence for foreign nationals in Canada, outside of Quebec, with recent Canadian work experience in essential occupations
• Temporary public policy to facilitate the granting of permanent residence for French-speaking foreign nationals in Canada, outside of Quebec, with recent Canadian work experience in essential occupations
• Temporary public policy to facilitate the granting of permanent residence for foreign nationals in Canada, outside of Quebec, with a recent credential from a Canadian post-secondary institution
• Temporary public policy to facilitate the granting of permanent residence for French-speaking foreign nationals in Canada, outside of Quebec, with a recent credential from a Canadian post-secondary institution

The Temporary Resident to Permanent Resident Pathway is a limited-time pathway to permanent residence for qualifying temporary residents and their families. Certain numbers of applicants who have work experience in Canada in an essential occupation or the health or health services field, or have recently graduated from a Canadian post-secondary institution, are able to apply for permanent residence. Graduates and workers must be present in Canada and currently working (with authorization) at the time of their application, have proficiency in one of Canada’s official languages and meet general admissibility requirements to qualify.
