On January 8, the Ministere de l'Immigration, de la Francisation et de l'Integration (MIFI) issued 2026’s first invitations under Arrima.

The MIFI issued six supplementary invitations for permanent selection under special provisions of the Quebec Immigration Act.

These invitations, distinct from the mainstream PSTQ channels, were granted under sections 26 and 47 of the provincial immigration regulations. In total, the province has invited 58,747 candidates under Arrima since 2019. Last year, Quebec issued 2,910 candidates, including 21 supplementary invitations.
