On August 5, 2022, the Government of Canada updated instructions for the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot (RNIP) regarding the application assessment against selection criteria.
The new instructions clarify the sections of confirmation of community recommendation, education, qualifying work experience, and job offer requirements.
In addition, the Government has also added a new section on the RNIP’s website.
The new section states that if a foreign national is in Canada at the time of their permanent residence visa application, he or she must possess a valid temporary resident status.

On August 3, 2022, the Government of Canada announced a new pathway for permanent residence for family members of the victims of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 (ET302)
and Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 (PS752) who are outside of Canada and want to come to Canada to support their families who lost their spouse,
common-law partner or parent. To ensure that extended family members are connected to the surviving family member, the person who is residing in Canada must submit a statutory declaration identifying the extended family member.
The public policy will be in effect until August 2, 2023.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has added three additional questions to the language and education section of the Express Entry profile.
The first question asks if the applicant completed at least 50 percent of the study courses through in-person learning.
The second one asks the applicant if he or she studied in Canada for at least eight months to earn a degree, diploma, or certificate.
The last question asks if this education has been completed full-time or part-time.

On August 2, 2022, the Government of Canada published new guidelines for foreign nationals with expired or expiring post-graduation work permits (PGWP) and those applying to the temporary resident to permanent resident (TR2PR) pathways.
Since the suspension of Express Entry invitations to apply for the Federal High-Skilled streams has had an impact on PGWP holders, the Government introduced the temporary public policy to allow eligible PGWP applicants to apply for an open work permit within a 6-month intake period.
Those who have already applied for TR2PR pathways may also obtain an open work permit.
